Matrix Switcher Connection (Camera Communication)
The WJ-SX350 and WV-CU360C are typically combined with the WJ-MP204C when using the Camera Communication
Protocol. Ordinary cameras are connected directly with the Matrix Switcher, different from cameras having control functions.

Unit Number Setting
A rotary switch is placed on the front panel. It specifies the WJ-MP204C unit number in a PS•Data protocol system, or camera
unit numbers in a Camera Communication Protocol system.
8Setting the unit number
1  Turn off the power switch of the unit.
2  Use a screw driver to rotate the UNIT switch so that the arrow comes to the number you wish.
3  Turn on the power switch.
Notes:
• The unit number can be specified in the setup menu when the UNIT switch is set to...

Alarm/Remote Terminal Setting
The rear of the unit is provided with an 11-pin terminal, ALARM/REMOTE.
Pins from #1 to #5 perform as follows.
Pin #1 supplies an active output for the duration specified by the ALARM OUTPUT in the setup. 
The output type is a low-active open collector with a capacity of 16 V DC, 100 mA maximum.
Pin #2 accepts an alarm...

8Alarm input 
Available when TERMINAL is set to ALARM and TERM. ALARM is set to ON in the setup, and the internal connector remains in
the default position (CN703, ALM IN): 
Pin #6 accepts CH 1 alarm input from the connected sensor.
Pin #7 accepts CH 2 alarm input from the connected sensor.
Pin #8 accepts CH 3 alarm input from the connected sensor.
Pin #9 accepts CH 4 alarm input from the connected sensor.

RS-485 Terminal Connection (Camera
Communication)
These terminals are connected with system devices using
the Camera Communication Protocol in 4-line full duplex or
2-line half duplex mode specified with the DIP switch set-
ting.
Notes:
• Use a data grade, shielded and twisted cable suited to
RS-485. The maximum allowable cable length is 4 000
ft (1 200m).
• Termination should be made at both ends of the data
line, while being open at intermediate devices....

Confirmation
1. Connections and switch settings are complete.
2. Switch on the power of the connected system devices
including the monitor that displays the menus.
3. Turn on the power of the WJ-MP204C. 
4. When setting at the camera site, remove the front cover
from the unit to make access possible to the buttons on
the front panel.
5. When setting with use of a WV-CU360C System
Controller, confirm that the OPERATE indicator is lit on
the Controller, meaning that the unit is ready...

Setup menus
There are two setup menu groups depending on the communication protocol used in the system, menus for PS•Data and for
the Camera Communication Protocol.  MODE DIP switch # 3 on the rear of the unit is set to the position of the used protocol,
and it specifies what menu group is displayed on the monitor. Menu trees are shown below for two protocols.
