The Matrix, with a difference

June 2006 Surveillance

Taking control of a surveillance system has been made easier with the Panasonic Matrix System 650. Essentially a sophisticated, yet simple to operate configuration of top-performing Panasonic CCVE components, the Matrix System 650 offers support for up to 256 RS485 remote-controlled cameras (using eight video input boards), with all channels connected via coaxial, multiplex cables (up to 1200 metres long).

Output support for up to 32 monitors (using two video output boards) is also a feature, with displayed information including multilingual menus, alarm history display (up to 10 000 alarms) and a character display comprising date, time, camera number, camera title and event information.

In addition, it supports up to 16 W-HD300A Series digital disk recorders (using two video output boards), giving remote surveillance of the system from a PC.

It has support for the simultaneous use of up to 16 WV-CU650 system controllers and a PC and finely tuned management of up to 60 users, with individual level and priority settings.

The maximum system size of the Matrix System 650 - 256 cameras and 32 monitors - is managed by four WJ-SX650 Matrix Switcher/WJ-SX650U Card Cages (housing the requisite video input/output boards). A rich array of sequence, alarm and scheduling features accommodate every surveillance need, including support for up to 1024 alarm inputs (terminal, camera, recorder, serial, video loss) and up to 64 alarm outputs. Up to 10 000 alarms can be stored, with alarm histories downloadable to PC to facilitate management thereof.
