    PREFACE Matrix Switcher WJ-SX150A is designed for a surveillance control system, which is composed of cameras, monitors and sys- tem controllers. System controllers are used to operate the surveillance control system. In combination with Digital Disk Recorder or a time-lapse VCR, a surveillance system can be established in a local area. * To use WJ-HD100 Series or a time-lapse VCR, you need to install Multiplexer Board WJ-SXB151 inside the matrix switcher.
