page.  
• Up to four inputs can be displayed in two- and four-  
way split screens, or by sequential switching.

support for Y/C signals from the EVI-D30/D31/G20/  
G21 or HSR-1/1P/2/2P.  
• Supports low video frame rates ideal for live  
monitoring.  
Compatible with existing networks  
• Supports standard network environments and  
connects with LAN, WAN and telephone circuits.  
• Accessible from any client on the network.  
Alarm functions complement monitoring  
applications  
• Four alarm inputs are provided to allow easily  
checking images on the screen at the moment an  
alarm event occurs.

Up to seven VISCA-compliant video cameras can be  
connected by daisy chaining to the two serial ports on  
the video network station, with pan/tilt/zoom  
controlled by the ID number of each video camera.  
The “Pan Tilt” icon is used to set the driver, video  
camera ID number and video camera preset position  
for each connected device.  
The following example describes connection of an  
EVI-D30/D31/G20/G21.

Before making any settings, see the following “HSR-1/  
1P/2/2P Setting Precautions”.  
2 Observe the sample video camera image while  
adjusting the camera position using the [Pan],  
[Tilt] and [Zoom] control bars. Refer to “Pan/Tilt/  
Zoom Control” on page 28 for details.  
3 Enter a name for the preset position in the [Current

HSR-1/1P/2/2P Setting Precautions  
• Always click the [SET] button after making a  
setting.  
To apply changed settings, the [SET] button must be  
clicked on each page. Changes to settings will not be  
saved unless you click the [SET] button.  
4 Click the “Save” icon.  
The name of the preset position is added to the  
[Preset positions] drop-down list.  
5 To delete an existing preset position, select the  
name of the position in the [Preset positions] drop-  
down list, and click the [Remove] button.  
• Display response may slow briefly while settings  
are being saved.  
Some display slow-down is normal while settings are  
being stored in the HSR-1/1P/2/2P: this does not  
indicate a problem with the video network station.  
6 Click the [Close] button when finished with the  
settings.  
The “Preset Positions” page closes.

• Available settings differ according to the type of  
HSR connected.  
Some settings are different for the HSR-1/1P and  
HSR-2/2P, which are automatically detected by the  
video network station.  
• Time Display Format  
The following four display formats are available on  
the HSR-1/1P/2/2P “INDICATION CONTROL”  
page, which are independent of the video network  
server’s “Date & Time” (see page 15).  
– “SETUP MENU” - “TIME ADJUSTMENT”  
– “SETUP MENU” - “RECORDING FUNCTION”  
- [TIMER RECORDING]  
– HSR View - “HSR CONTROL” - [TIME  
SEARCH]  
– HSR View - “HSR CONTROL” - [ALARM  
SEARCH] - [ALARM LIST]  
• Recording Mode Setting Procedure  
To set the recording mode, open the “RECORDING  
MODE 1” - “RECORDING MODE 5” pages from  
the “RECORDING FUNCTION” page, and set the  
following items:  
– [CAMERAS]  
– [TAPE LENGTH]  
– [IMAGE QUALITY]  
– Either [TIME MODE] or “RECORDING  
CYCLE”  
To change these display formats, change the [DATE  
FORMAT] and [TIME FORMAT] on the  
“INDICATION CONTROL” page.  
The HSR-1/1P/2/2P automatically calculates the  
value of either [TIME MODE] or “RECORDING  
CYCLE” that was not entered when you click the  
“SET” button. If the entered value is outside of the  
valid setting range, an error message appears, so you  
can enter a valid value. To verify the settings, display  
the “RECORDING MODE 1” through  
“RECORDING MODE 5” pages again.  
• Setting the HSR-1/1P/2/2P Communications Speed  
to Match the Video Network Station  
When changing the [RS-232C] communications  
speed on the “REMOTE CONTROL” page, be sure  
to also set the video network station communications  
speed on the “Serial Port 1 Settings” page (see page  
18) to the same value. If these settings are not the  
same, the video network station will be unable to  
control the HSR-1/1P/2/2P.  
• Relationship between HSR-1/1P/2/2P Passwords  
and Video Network Station Password  
• The “SERVICE USE” Page is for Maintenance  
Service  
The “SERVICE USE” page in the  
“MAINTENANCE MENU” is for maintenance  
service. It is password protected to prevent display to  
users.  
The password entered for “PASSWORD SETTING”  
on the “FUNCTION CONTROL” page restricts  
operation of the HSR-1/1P/2/2P (which is different  
from the “Security” password set for the video  
network station – see page 16). However, the system  
manager (root user) of the video network station can  
change the passwords for any connected HSR-1/1P/2/  
2P. The system manager’s password should therefore  
be handled carefully.  
• Setting and Canceling HSR-1/1P/2/2P Passwords  
The password entered for “PASSWORD SETTING”  
on the “FUNCTION CONTROL” page may consist  
of up to four characters. Asterisks (*) are displayed  
when the HSR-1/1P/2/2P password has been set. To  
cancel a password, delete the displayed asterisks (*)  
and click the Set button with both [USER  
PASSWORD] and [CONFIRM PASSWORD] boxes  
empty.

• Switching to the alarm camera image can be disabled.  
• The number of images to be saved can be specified.  
• The save interval of images can be specified.  
• Transfer of saved images to another computer can be

The Alarm mode of the Camera View is used to view  
images saved during an alarm event. The Alarm mode  
provides an Alarm List screen (List display), Alarm  
Replay screen (moving image display) and an Alarm  
Thumbnail screen (thumbnail display).  
z Hint  
Images saved using the “Snapshot” icon can also be  
viewed from the Alarm mode, in the same way as  
alarm event images.  
• E-mailing saved images as attachments can be  
disabled.  
• The alarm event cancel time can be specified.  
Alarm Event Actions  
The following actions are performed when an alarm  
event occurs.  
• The alarm trigger, alarm time and images before and  
after the alarm event are stored in memory. Stored  
images are stored at [Fullsize] (352 × 240 for NTSC).  
• The following pop-up window appears on the  
monitor screen.  
• The image displayed on the screen changes to the  
camera that signaled the alarm event.  
• A saved image is transferred to another computer by  
ftp.

2 Camera Number Buttons  
A blue indicator appears above a camera number  
button to indicate that pan/tilt/zoom control is  
available via a connected EVI-D30/D31/G20/G21. If  
no video camera ID number has been set in the system  
settings, or if an EVI-D30/D31/G20/G21 is not  
connected or is turned off, this indicator is colored  
gray.  
Clicking one of these buttons displays the image from  
that video camera.  
While monitoring an image, the camera number on the  
button corresponds to the video input terminal on the  
HSR-1/1P/2/2P. No camera number appears on a  
button if the corresponding input terminal has been set  
to [DISCONNECT] for the camera connection. When  
playing a tape, the camera number buttons are  
displayed for those cameras that were on when the tape  
was recorded. In this case, no camera number appears  
on a button if that camera was set for [NO  
RECORDING] at the time the recording was made.

Simultaneous Alarm Input to the HSR-1/1P/2/2P and Video Network  
Station Alarm Memory  
When alarm recording is initiated by input of an alarm  
signal to the HSR-1/1P/2/2P, if the alarm signal is sent  
from the HSR-1/1P/2/2P to the video network station,  
the alarm function of the video network station acts  
simultaneously with the HSR-1/1P/2/2P. In this way,  
alarm events recorded on the HSR-1/1P/2/2P can be  
easily confirmed on the video network station monitor  
without using the alarm search function of the HSR-1/  
1P/2/2P.  
To confirm alarm events precisely using the video  
network station alarm memory as an index, perform an  
alarm search using the HSR-1/1P/2/2P.
