Overview

The Sony HSR-X200/X200P Digital Surveillance Recorder is a digital video recorder that records images of high picture quality from surveillance video cameras for extended periods. Images are recorded on the built-in hard disk, and you can achieve high-quality recording/playback without worrying about the recording time and durability of cassette tapes as you would with a recorder using videocassettes.

The differences between the HSR-X200 and the HSR- X200P are described clearly in the manual. For anything not mentioned, the operating procedure of the HSR-X200 and the HSR-X200P is the same.

Features

Long-time recording with a large-capacity hard disk

A 80GB hard disk is installed as standard equipment, permitting long-time continuous recording.

Examples:

1 input, 1 field/sec, HYPER picture-quality mode:

370 hours (15.4 days)

1 input, 1 field/sec, HIGH picture-quality mode:

671 hours (28 days)

1 input, 1 field/sec, LOW picture-quality mode:

1264 hours (52.7 days)

4 inputs, 1 field/sec at each input, HIGH picture- quality mode: 167 hours (7 days)

Use of the optional HSBK-X201 hard disk (80GB) enables capacity expansion up to 160 GB.

High-quality and high-resolution recording/playback with the motion-JPEG compression system

Image modes of 5 levels

The HSR-X200/X200P enables you to select from among five picture-quality modes, i.e. HYPER (58 KB/field), SUPER (44 KB/field), HIGH (32 KB/field), MID (24 KB/field), LOW (17 KB/field) according to your purpose or required recording time. The lower the resolution you choose, the longer the recording time that is obtained.

High resolution

In normal field recording mode, a high resolution of 720 240 pixels (HSR-X200) or 720 288 pixels (HSR-X200P) can be obtained.

When you use frame recording mode, you can record more detailed still images of 720 480 pixels (HSR- X200) or 720 576 pixels (HSR-X200P) frame by frame.

Field recording and frame recording can be switched with a menu operation.

A variety of recording and playback

The built-in hard disk can be partitioned into three areas, i.e. normal recording, alarm recording and archive areas to enable the various possibilities.

Alarm recording even during timer recording

Pre-reverse playback, which enables playback without interrupting the recording in progress.

Alarm recording using the 8 10 multipoint activity detection sensor

Recording/playback of one channel of audio

Variable-speed playback with the Jog and Shuttle dials

2 Zooming function for picture monitoring

Versatile system configuration

Connection to a multiplexer

An optional multiplexer can be connected. With a multiplexer whose channel information can be decoded, you can specify channels to be used.

Remote control via a network

Using a commercially available LAN PC card, you can control the recorder via TCP/IP from a PC (WEB browser) for recording/playback and data transmission.

Data storage and backup

PC card slots are available on the front and rear panels, enabling data storage and backup on various IC memory cards or a DDS drive.
