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:
413 hours (17.2 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 enables
capacity expansion.
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 (52
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, CD-Rs and DDS tape.
For a list of CD-R and DDS drives that can be used with
this unit, consult your Sony dealer.
