SINGLE-CHANNEL DIGITAL VIDEO RECORDER FUNCTIONS

■

Pre- and Post-Alarm recording

Since the C-DR0101/C-DR0100/C-DR0105 are all digital units, they

are able to offer advantages that analog systems cannot such as

the pre-alarm feature which allows setting a time in eight increments

from 0 second to 5 minutes. If an alarm is generated, the unit has

already been recording from the preset time period. This makes

sure nothing is missed when viewing footage from the alarm. A

post-alarm function with similar time increments is also provided.

The C-DR0100 incorporates a 120GB HDD while the

C-DR0101 is equipped with 240GB (2 X 120GB) HDDs

and C-DR0105 is equipped with 500GB (2 X 250GB)

HDDs. Large capacity hard disk drives such as these

make it easy to achieve extended recording times for

effective monitoring.The use of large hard disk drives

eliminates having to change tapes and perform periodical

maintenance as such tasks are essential when using

conventional time-lapse VCRs. In addition, only digital

recording can offer such high picture quality, extended

recording periods and effective high-speed searching.In

order to achieve the most extended recording times while

maintaining picture and audio quality for recording and

playback, digital compression is utilized. Motion JPEG

compression is employed for pictures of 720 x 240 pixel

resolution.

500GB storage with 2 250GB HDDs built-in

■

(C-DR0105)

An immense storage capacity of 500GB is provided in the

C-DR0105 that features two 250GB disk drives built-in. This

allows recording over many hours, raising overall system

effectiveness and significantly adding to ease of use for

monitoring applications. If less recording capacity is desired, the

C-DR0101 equipped with two 120GB disk drives built-in and the

C-DR0100 equipped with a single120GB hard drive can be used.

■

High picture quality

Advanced digital compression technology provides picture quality

with a resolution that exceeds 400 lines.

Full digital operation means picture quality with clarity that easily

surpasses S-VHS.

Since all video is recorded directly to the HDD, there is no picture

deterioration even with repeated playback.

■

Versatile recording with a choice of three

■

modes: general recording, internal timer recording and

alarm recording.

•Picture quality from a choice of levels and recording

interval from can be set independently in each mode.

•Picture quality can be selected from 5 different file sizes

ranging from a standard picture quality file size of 16KB to

a high picture quality file size of 64KB.

•Internal timer recording allows setting up to 10 different

timer programs.

•Alarm recording offers two different alarm input modes,

each allowing different items to be set to suit different

monitoring requirements.

Comprehensive high-speed search functions

Because the hard disks can store a significant amount of

recorded data, it is important that sophisticated search

functions provided:

Time Search

Inputting the date and time desired activates searching by

date/time. Once a value is input, the frame starting at the

time selected will be displayed. This makes it easy to search

forward and backward from that point.

Block Search

Selecting a block* of dates/times performs searching by

block. Once a block is selected, it will playback repeatedly.

Time Shift Search

Increasing or decreasing the amounts of time as desired

from a designated time activates searching by time shift.

The frame at the designated time will be displayed,

facilitating searching.

flexibly configured by combining a C-DR0105/C-DR0101/

C-DR0100 single-channel recorder with a TOA multiplexer such

as the C-MS91D and C-MS161D model by utilizing the

RS-232C interface to link the units. Such a system comprising

TOA digital video recorders and multiplexers offer significant

system advantages such as automatic mode switching by the

multiplexer on playback and automatic time synchronization

between the digital video recorder and multiplexer.

SYSTEM

• 2x Zoom (adjustable zoom position)

• The auto-panning and-tilt

functions electronically simulate

eye-movement of a sentry

Electronic Zoom, Auto Tilt and Auto Panning

Features Included.

TOA multiplexers enable electronic 2X zooming to be

selected along with desired position. In addition, electronic

Auto Pan and Auto Tilt functions enhance monitoring

and surveillance capability.

Motion Detection Mode

TOA's new multiplexers incorporate an extremely useful

function of smart image detection. The object size and

detection areas can be set for each camera individually.

Object Size Settings

The full screen is divided into 192

frames (16 horizontal x 12 vertical)

which do not appear on the screen.

Size of the object for detected can be

set by selecting horizontal and vertical

frames and inputting these values.

Motion Detection Area setting

The full screen is divided into 16 areas (4 horizontal x 4 vertical) and

motion detection can be set to activate in any of the 16 areas.

For example, when wishing to eliminate constantly moving portions

such as trees swayed

by wind from the

motion detection area,

set the corresponding

area to OFF(- -).

Sensitivity Setting

To minimize detection errors, five levels of sensitivity settings are

provided to allow fine adjustment control.

The multiplexer detect the change of brightness in the area that is

larger than the set object size in the activated areas.

Alarm Recording

The number of recording frames for the camera that detected motion

can be set to increase.

For example, when wishing to detect a

person but not wishing to detect a dog,

set the object size to be larger than the

dog and smaller than a person. If the

object size is set for 2 horizontal x 5

vertical frames, such as in the figure at

right, a person's motion can be

detected, but motion of the dog will

not be detected.

Maximum 1,000GB recording time possible.

To gain the very maximum recording time possible, two TOA

C-DR0105 digital video recorders can be set up for serial

recording in conjunction with a TOA multiplexer. Connected

in this manner, a digital recorder will signal the second digital

video recorder when its hard disk drive is full, automatically

starting the second recorder so nothing will be missed.

Multiplexer

When first digital video recorder storage is full, the second unit will

start to record.

When the second digital recorder storage is full, recording starts again

on the first unit by recording over what was previously recorded.

Versatile Alarm Functions

TOA multiplexers offer many alarm functions that are easily

set in the setup menu.

Sensor Alarm: Each camera connected is equipped with a

sensor input terminal. Alarm activation triggers a buzzer while

onscreen display warning and video recording speed is

automatically set to standard speed. Multiple Alarm Inputs allow

prioritizing cameras when an alarm is generated. When multiple

alarms are generated, video image switching is suspended and

the alarms are put on hold so that the operator can select the

alarm’s corresponding camera’s images to view in desired

order. In addition, each alarm terminal can be set to notify on a

break-or-make or make basis.

Digital Video Recorder Reproduction Alarm: A buzzer

sounds when playing back the part of a recording that contains a

sensor alarm event.

Video Loss Alarm: Alerts when power or signal from a

particular camera is lost. Letters "VL" and the camera

ID number will be displayed.

Alarm Information: Dates, times and camera ID number of

sensor and video loss alarms can be reviewed on an

independentalarm information screen. A maximum of 64

events will be recorded and a new event will record over the

oldest event.

Multi-Language Ability

Offering flexible use for multi-language environments, TOA

multiplexers will show onscreen information and allow menu-

driven set-up and operation in English, French, and Spanish.

Summer Time (daylight savings)

The timer function can be adjusted for summer time and can

also be set to adjust automatically for it.

Key-lock function

A key-lock function can be set to prevent unauthorized access

to unit controls and tampering.

Remote control

Each multiplexer is equipped with an RS-232C port on the

rear panel so that it can be linked for control externally from a

remote location. The C-RM500 Remote Controller can be

used to switch and select cameras individually or by group,

sequence-display, multi-split screen modes. It connects to the

multiplexer via the remote control terminal on the rear panel.

Frame Recording Function

The frame recording system switches cameras for each frame

while recording. For every frame, a multiplexer sends a

different picture taken by a different camera to a Digital Video

Recorder so that a single Digital Video Recorder is able to

make recordings for multiple cameras.

Continuous images can be reproduced during replay by

reading corresponding frames for each camera. Recorded

images may be viewed as full-screen display for each

independent camera or in a split-screen display that shows

multiple camera views at the same time. A conventional

sequential switcher changes camera feeds every few

seconds,making continuous motion replay impossible.

Allocating a Digital Video Recorder for each camera is also

prohibitive in terms of costs. Multiplexers that use the

frame recording system records images from all cameras

and are cost-effective.
