1.1 SAFEGUARDS, WARNINGS, CAUTION, AND CARE  
Observe the following WARNINGS before installing and using this product. Follow  
all warnings and instructions marked on the VCR.  
Instructions  
Read all the safety and operating instructions before operating the VCR. Keep the  
instructions for future reference. Follow all operating and use instructions. Heed all  
warnings on the equipment and in the operating instructions.  
Installation/Servicing  
Installation and servicing should be done by qualified service personnel only and  
conform to all local codes. Do not try to service this VCR yourself. Opening or re-  
moving covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.  
Damage Requiring Service  
Unplug the VCR from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service person-  
nel under the following conditions:  
1. When the power cord or plug is damaged.  
2. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the VCR.  
3. If the VCR does not operate normally when following the operating instruc-  
tions.  
Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper ad-  
justment of other controls may cause damage and will often require extensive  
work by a qualified technician to restore the VCR to normal operation.  
4. If the VCR was dropped or the cabinet damaged.  
5. When the VCR shows a distinct change in performance–this indicates a need  
for service.  
Replacement Parts  
Be sure the service technician uses only replacement parts Pelco recommends, or  
which have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitu-  
tions may cause fire, electric shock, or other hazards.  
Safety Check  
Upon completion of any service or repair to the VCR, ask the service technician to  
perform safety checks to determine whether it is in safe operating condition.  
Water/Moisture/Condensation  
Do not use this VCR near water. It is designed for indoor use only and must not be  
installed where exposed to rain and moisture.  
Do not place objects containing water, such as drinks, on top of the VCR.  
If the VCR is exposed to a rapid increase in temperature (such as warming a cold  
room or after moving it from a cold location to a warm one), condensation may form  
on the tape transport mechanism inside the VCR. To prevent damage to the VCR or  
tapes, plug the VCR into the AC outlet and turn the power on for about two hours.  
Do not play back or record on the VCR during this time.  
Condensation is likely to occur when:  
1. The VCR is moved from a cold room to a warm room or from outdoors to  
indoors.  
2. A cold room is heated quickly.  
3. The humidity is very high.  
Avoid using the VCR where cold air (such as from an air conditioner) will blow  
directly on it.

Cleaning  
Unplug the VCR from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol  
cleaners. Clean with a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent and water.  
Wipe dry. NEVER USE PETROLEUM-BASED SOLUTIONS.  
Attachments  
Do not use attachments not recommended by Pelco as they may cause hazards.  
Accessories  
Do not place the VCR on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The VCR  
may fall, seriously injuring a person or damaging the equipment. Use only with a  
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by Pelco, or sold with the VCR.  
Follow Pelco’s instructions when mounting equipment, and use a mounting acces-  
sory recommended by Pelco.  
Use care when moving equipment on a cart. Quick stops, excessive force, and  
uneven surfaces may overturn the VCR and cart combination.  
Do Not Place Anything Heavy On The VCR  
Heavy objects placed on the VCR will cause damage.  
Ventilation  
Slots and openings in the cabinet provide ventilation and ensure reliable operation  
of the VCR and protect it from overheating. Do not block or cover these openings.  
Never place the VCR near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place it in a  
built-in installation such as a rack unless proper ventilation is provided or Pelco’s  
instructions have been followed. There are many ventilation holes on the bottom of  
the VCR–for maximum ventilation, place it on a hard level surface only.  
Power Sources  
Operate this VCR only from the type of power source indicated on the marking  
label. If you are unsure of the type of power supply, consult your equipment dealer  
or local power company.  
Grounding or Polarization  
This VCR is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug–a plug having a third  
(grounding) pin. This plug only fits into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety  
feature. If you cannot insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to replace  
the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.  
Power Cord Protection  
WARNING: The in-  
cluded power cord is used  
for 120 VAC, 60 Hz. Never  
connect to any outlet or  
power supply having a dif-  
ferent voltage or fre-  
quency.  
Do not damage the power cord; it may cause fire or shock hazard. Route the power  
cord so it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it.  
Pay particular attention to the cord at the wall plug or convenience receptacle and  
the point where it connects to the VCR. When unplugging the power cord, grasp the  
plug and remove it carefully.  
Lightning/Power Surges  
Unplug the VCR from the wall outlet for its added protection during a lightning storm  
or when it is unused for long periods. This prevents damage to the VCR from light-  
ning and power line surges. Pelco recommends using conditioned-output  
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and/or surge protected outlets to maximize  
protection of the VCR.  
When Not in Use  
When you finish operating the VCR, always unload the cassette and turn off the  
power.  
Overloading  
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this increases the risk of fire  
and electric shock.  
Object and Liquid Entry  
Never push objects of any kind into the VCR through openings. They may touch  
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric  
shock. It can also cause extensive damage to the mechanism. Never spill liquid of  
any kind on the VCR.

2.0 OVERVIEW  
2.1 INTRODUCTION TO TIME-LAPSE RECORDERS  
Time-lapse recording permits longer than ordinary recording times. The primary  
reason for using time-lapse recording in a CCTV security system is that a single  
VCR tape can be used for an extended period of time beyond the standard record-  
ing time. The following explains how time-lapse recording works.  
The actual recording on VCRs is a series of still pictures or fields. Standard con-  
sumer VHS recorders store 60 fields (30 frames) per second. AT-120 cassette lasts  
just two hours in this mode (SP mode). You can get slightly longer recording times  
(six hours) using the extended recording mode (EP mode). You can record even  
longer on a T-160 cassette in these modes: two hours and 40 minutes in SP mode  
and eight hours in EP mode. (Refer to the table in Section 8.1.1 for actual recording  
times in different modes.)  
Time-lapse VCRs, however, use microprocessor-based techniques to record fewer  
fields per second than a normal VHS machine and extend recording time. This ne-  
gates the need to change the tape every two hours–and also substantially reduces  
viewing time when the recording is played back, another important consideration.  
In normal VCR operation, all video head scans (60 per second) are recorded. But in  
time-lapse mode the tape runs more slowly and records pictures periodically. In 12-  
hour mode, a normal time-lapse machine records 10 fields per second, and in 24-  
hour mode, it stores just five fields per second (for up to 12 and 24 hours on a tape,  
respectively). Longer times are possible by slowing the recording rate further.  
At normal speed a picture is recorded every 1/60 of a second so there is little change  
over five frames. In longer time-lapse modes, however, a field is recorded intermit-  
tently over a longer period of time so changes are apparent from field to field.  
The time-lapse recording can be played back at normal two-hour tape speed, which  
makes for rapid review–one of the time-lapse recorder’s most important advan-  
tages. Action on the tape, however, appears faster than normal.  
As an advanced feature, time-lapse recorders (like the TLR2024) can automatically  
switch from time-lapse to real-time recording when an alarm condition occurs. This  
is important since the primary purpose of recording an event is identification, and  
real-time recording provides more detail.  
2.2 TLR2024 FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS  
The TLR2024 time-lapse VCR is a powerful surveillance tool designed for industrial  
and security recording. In addition to ordinary two-hour and six-hour recording modes,  
it has time-lapse modes that allow recording in 12- and 24-hour modes. TheTLR2024  
features frame-by-frame playback and high-speed playback of longer recordings.  
Audio Recording–Audio recorded in 2H, 6H, L(inear)12H, or L24H modes is played  
back only in its respective mode.  
Resolution And Image Quality–This VCR has a high-quality circuit allowing more  
than 330 lines in B/W (black and white) mode, and more than 240 lines in color  
mode.  
Automatic Head Cleaning–The VCR automatically removes foreign matter from  
the heads when a cassette is inserted for continuous smooth operation.  
Easy Setup Using A Monitor–The on-screen menus simplify setup programming.  
You can select these menus even without inputting a video signal.  
Easy Cueing With Alarm Recording–Index signals are automatically added at  
the beginning of alarm recording for easy cueing. You can even use the monitor to  
confirm the starting time of alarm recording.

External Time Clock Adjustment–You can reset the on-screen clock to the near-  
est hour by applying a signal to the RST (reset) IN terminal at the rear of the VCR.  
Record Check–You can confirm correct recording by pressing the PLAY button  
during recording.  
Special Playback Features–These include still images, speed search, reverse  
playback, frame-by-frame viewing in both directions, slow-motion, and high-speed  
viewing.  
JOG Dial/SHUTTLE Ring–You can use these controls to search for the desired  
image. You can adjust the playback speed with the SHUTTLE ring and search for an  
image frame-by-frame with the JOG dial.  
Recording Options–This versatile system offers a variety of recording options,  
including daily and weekly timer recording, repeat, and alarm recording.  
Protection Against Power Failures–Recording data (including date, time, and  
timer setup) is stored in backup memory, so the system can resume recording after  
a power failure. The monitor displays the time of the failure.  
NOTE: The battery backup is for  
memory only–the VCR does not  
continue recording if the power  
goes out. If you want to keep re-  
cording during an outage, make  
sure the VCR system is on your  
UPS (uninterruptible power supply)  
system.  
Digital <ELAPSED TIME> Display–The elapsed time of recording and playback is  
stored in non-volatile memory. You can use the elapsed time display as a guide to  
when to do periodic maintenance.  
Tape Use Counter–This counter displays how many times you have recorded on a  
tape. This helps you decide when you need to replace a tape.  
Daylight Saving Time Setting–A daylight saving time setting is available. You can  
set the clock forward an hour by programming the menu.

4.0 INSTALLATION  
4.1 PRE-INSTALLATION CAUTIONS  
1. Provide secure power to system components. Prevent overloading or shorting  
by dedicating power circuits to the surveillance equipment. Restrict access to  
the surveillance system circuit breakers, switches, and equipment power cords.  
2. Surveillance system components must be operationally compatible. Time-lapse  
recording speeds and dwell times of any accessory switching equipment must  
be compatible with each other.  
3. The TLR2024 time-lapse VCR provides multiple alarm recording speeds so it  
is important that alarm triggering of components be operationally compatible.  
Refer to Section 2.1 for information on time-lapse recording.  
4. Complete all system hookups (camera, multiplexer, etc.) before installing the  
VCR in a location where you cannot access its rear panel.  
4.1.1 Securing the VCR Controls  
Protect surveillance equipment to forestall tampering. We recommend putting the  
recorder in a secure VCR cabinet. Pelco offers such units–the RM2000, which is a  
rack kit for a single VCR, and the RM2004, which is a rack kit for four VCRs.  
4.1.2 Monitor Tips  
Pelco recommends using a CCTV monitor.  
Some monitors may cause picture vibration or picture distortion at the top or  
bottom of the image during still or normal playback. (Refer to Section 9.4.3 for  
information.)  
Atelevision may be unable to provide a stable picture without vibration or distortion.  
4.2 INSTALLATION  
1. Remove the VCR and all cables from the box.  
2. Place the VCR in a suitable location.  
If the location is unsecured, refer to Section 4.1.1 for information about  
products to lock up the VCR.  
Do all system hookups (camera, multiplexer, etc.) before installing the  
VCR in a location where you cannot access its rear panel.  
3. If installing in a rack, place the VCR in the rack before making cable and power  
connections. Refer to the documentation included with the rack kit for specific  
installation instructions.  
4. If you are not using a switcher, refer to Figure 1.  
Connect the camera (video output) to the rear of the VCR (video input  
BNC). Connect the VCR (video output BNC) to the monitor (video input).  
Connect the alarm input to the VCR (SET IN and GND [ground] termi-  
nals).  
If you are using a 600 microphone, connect it to the VCR (MIC IN jack).  
Connect the VCR (audio output connector) to the monitor (audio input).  
5. If you are using a switcher, refer to Section 4.3.

Figure 2 shows how to connect the VCR to an MX4000 Series Genex™ Multiplexer.  
For Automatic Speed Tracking (“B” lines in Figure 2)  
This lets the VCR control the multiplexer’s recording speed. It is the most effi-  
cient recording method.  
1. Connect the VCR’s CLK output to the multiplexer’s head switching (HS)  
input to synchronize camera switching.  
2. Connect the multiplexer’s ground terminal to the VCR’s GND terminal.  
For Alarm Recording (“A” lines in Figure 2)  
NOTE:Cameras and monitors are  
connected to the multiplexer. Fig-  
ure 2 shows the connection be-  
tween the VCR and an MX4000  
Series Genex™ Multiplexer. Refer  
to the multiplexer manual for addi-  
tional component connections.  
This is to start and stop recording when there are alarms.  
1. Connect the multiplexer’s normally open (NO) relay terminal to the VCR’s  
SET IN (alarm input) terminal.  
2. Connect the common C terminal to the VCR’s GND terminal.

7.0 LOADING/UNLOADING/PROTECTING THE TAPE CASSETTE  
You can load video cassette tapes into your VCR as long as it is plugged into a  
power source. Loading a cassette automatically turns the VCR on even if its power  
switch is turned off. Use only video cassette tapes marked VHS.  
Use only standard grade VHS cassette tapes for reliable video recording. Do not  
use Pro, Hi-Fi, and High Grade tapes–they may damage the video heads. Use only  
T-120 orT-160 tapes.  
7.1 LOADING  
1. To position the cassette properly before inserting it in the cassette slot, hold  
NOTE: The VCR’s protection cir-  
the cassette so the long narrow edge with the contents label faces you. The  
hinged narrow edge should face the VCR. The clear plastic window showing  
the tape should face up.  
cuit will eject the tape if it is loaded  
improperly. If the VCR ejects the  
tape you are trying to load, remove  
it and check that the contents label  
is facing you and the clear plastic  
window showing the tape faces up.  
Try again.  
2. Line up the cassette squarely with the cassette slot and gently push the video  
tape in until the VCR pulls it in.

7.2 UNLOADING  
1. Press the EJECT button on the front of the VCR.  
2. Remove the cassette.  
NOTE:The VCR will eject a video  
cassette even if it is in STANDBY  
mode. When you press the EJECT  
button, the VCR will automatically  
turn on, eject the tape, and turn off.  
You cannot eject a tape while re-  
cording without first pressing the  
STOP button, or while the VCR is  
locked.  
7.3 PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL ERASURE  
Video cassettes come with an erasure prevention tab. When it is removed it stops  
the tape’s contents from being erased or recorded over. The VCR will automatically  
eject a cassette if you try to record over it with the erasure prevention tab removed.  
NOTE: We recommend taking any  
torn or broken cassette tape requir-  
ing repair only to professionals who  
specialize in such procedures. The  
adhesives on many common types  
of tape could damage the head on  
the VCR.

11.0 TESTING  
11.1 INITIAL SYSTEM TESTING  
Before using the newly-installed surveillance system, do the following:  
Make test recordings at the time-lapse speeds you will be using. Test how the  
system performs with alarms.  
Interrupt electrical power to check your installed power backup system (if ap-  
plicable).  
On playback, verify picture quality and that you can see the time/date display  
under normal and alarm conditions.  
11.2 REGULAR SYSTEM TESTING  
Every day check that the system is operating. Is the REC indicator lit? does the  
COUNTER display indicate movement? Does the monitor show proper camera  
sequencing and time/date information?  
Check for recorded alarms. Multiple alarms could make the tape run out early. Make  
sure there is enough tape to record at least five minutes of alarm activity at the  
selected speed.  
Regularly verify picture quality and operation under normal and alarm conditions.  
Play a tape recorded recently under normal conditions, which also includes an  
alarm condition that you triggered manually.  
Regularly replace tapes (refer to Table D for a schedule). Check tapes for head  
scarring. Replace damaged tapes. Always store tapes in their boxes; away from  
magnetic fields, heat, direct sunlight, and dust.
