High Quality Picture
The SVO-1330 is designed to consistently reproduce high
quality pictures. A combination of HQ (High Quality)
circuitry and DA (Double Azimuth) four-head design
provides high resolution and excellent color reproduction.
With this head design high quality pictures are maintained
even when using playback features such as still picture,
slow motion and × 2 normal speed mode.
APC II (Adaptive Picture Control II)
The APC II function helps optimize recording and playback.
When recording, APC II automatically detects the condition
of the recording head and the videocassette tape, then
sets the optimum recording current. During playback,
APC II automatically adjusts the noise level and sharpness
according to the playback output level. This results in
maximum picture performance with minimum noise.
Different Recording Modes
1. Timer Recording
The SV0-1330 has a built-in timer allowing the exact
recording time and the desired recording mode to be set in
advance. Timer recording can be preset to either weekly
recording or daily recording. In weekly recording mode, a
timer program can be individually preset for each day of
the week. Daily recording mode enables a recording to be
made at the same time every day.
2. Series Recording
Several SV0-1330 units can be cascaded via connectors on
the rear panel to extend the total recording time. As soon
as one unit finishes recording, the next unit is turned on
and continues recording without interruption.
3. SP/EP Recording
Two different recording
tape speeds are offered:
SP (Standard Play) and EP
(Extended Play) recording.
Making sure you don’t miss a thing
The SVO-1330 is specially designed for casino surveillance
applications where a number of VCRs are installed and used for
continuous recording. High picture quality is achieved by
incorporating a Double Azimuth four-head helical scanning system
and APCII (Adaptive Picture Control II) function that automatically
optimizes recording and playback performance.
The SVO-1330 includes a variety of recording modes as well as Control S In/Out
connectors for single remote control operation of multiple VCRs. A number of
playback features and straightforward on-screen
menus make the SVO-1330 easy to use,
while various safety functions give you
peace of mind. With all these features and
more, the SVO-1330 is ideal for many
casino surveillance systems.

Built-in Time and Date
Generator
The SVO-1330 is equipped with a built-in time and date
generator, which allows time and date information to be
superimposed onto incoming video signals. This provides a
precise record of the date and time of all incidents. The
time and date generator can also be switched off, allowing
the use of a master time/date generator from a matrix
switcher.
On-screen Display
Function settings such as time/date and timer
programming are menu-controlled. They are easy to set
and check on the monitor screen, and are available in
English, French, and Spanish.
Automatic Daylight Saving Time
By using the menu, the clock of the SV0-1330 can be
adjusted to automatically move forward or back one hour
when time changes occur.
Simultaneous Control of
Multiple VCRs
1. Clock Adjustment
By connecting the CLOCK ADJ IN/OUT terminals of
multiple SVO-1330s, the clocks of all connected units are
adjusted simultaneously. This is especially useful in casino
applications where multiple VCRs are used.
2. Videocassette Eject
By connecting the EJECT IN/OUT terminals of multiple
SVO-1330s, videocassettes from all connected units can be
ejected simultaneously.
3. Remote Control Operation
Up to 50 VCRs can be remotely controlled by the optional
RM-V200 remote control unit via Control S In/Out
connectors. A single VCR can be controlled by the optional
SVT-RM10 remote control unit via the remote jack.
Recording Check
When pressing the play button during recording, the tape
rewinds for about three seconds and then plays back for
about two seconds. The unit then returns to its original
recording mode. This allows the user to quickly check
recording integrity. Also, in the unlikely event that the
recording has not been made, due to a head clog for
example, the SVO-1330 outputs a pulse signal via the
warning out terminal on the rear panel.
Power Failure Protection
A built-in lithium battery provides protection against
power outages, retaining important information including
tape speed, current time and menu setting in memory for
up to 30 days.
Used Time Display
The usage hours of the video head drum can be displayed
on the monitor screen for easy maintenance scheduling.
Tape End/Tape Before-end Warning
To minimize disruption to the recording process during
tape changes, the SVT-1330 provides a tape end or tape
before-end warning buzzer. This buzzer can be disabled if
silent operation is desired.
Warning Signal Output
If recording stops due to a tape jam or an improper video
signal level is detected by either the recording check
function or APC II, a pulse signal will be output through
the warning out terminal on the rear panel.
