OPERATION OF THE UNIT IN THE CASCADE CONNECTION

When connecting multiple units (up to 4 units) in the cascade connection, it is possible to monitor images from all of the WJ-
HD316/309 in the cascade connection using a monitor. It is necessary in advance to perform the settings to operate the unit in
the cascade connection. Refer to a system administrator for further information.

I Features

It is possible to operate the unit in the cascade connection using the buttons on the front panel in the same way as operating a
unit used independently. Images will be displayed on monitor 2 connected to the first WJ-HD316/309. When using an optional
PS·Data compatible controller, it is possible to operate all of the WJ-HD316/309 in the cascade connection.
Important:
• It is impossible to use monitor1 when connecting the units in the cascade connection. Do not operate the monitor switch
button on the front panel after selecting "MONITOR 2" for all of the WJ-HD316/309 in the cascade connection.
• Video output signal will not be supplied from the MONITOR (VGA) connector when connecting the units in the cascade
connection.
• Using the AUDIO IN and AUDIO OUT connectors on the first unit is possible. It is impossible to use the AUDIO IN and
AUDIO OUT connectors on the second and subsequent units.

I Operation using the buttons on the front panel

It is possible to operate the unit using the buttons on the front panel as described on pages 19 - 57. Images will be displayed
on monitor 2 connected to the first unit. When operating the buttons on the front panel, only live/recorded images from the
cameras connected to the currently operated unit are available. It is impossible to operate live/recorded images from the cam-
eras connected to the other units.

I Operation using a system controller
