S-VHS/S-VHS-ET Time-Lapse Video Cassette Recorder

960 Hours S-VHS Time-Lapse Video Recording High-Quality, Safety and Cost Performance. The Panasonic AG-TL750 brings a newer level of cost performance to high-quality time-lapse video recording. With a wide range of advanced features and recording modes, its versatility meets a broadest range of applications.
Adding to S-VHS ET, the AG-TL750 makes it possible to take advantage of S-VHS’s proven high-quality recording capability with resolution of more than 400 lines for up to 960 hours on either S-VHS tapes or VHS tapes.

S-VHS High Picture Quality

The S-VHS format ensures a much higher level of colour fidelity and picture quality than conventional VHS. Thanks to the S-VHS format, horizontal resolution is higher than 400 lines in recording and playback, even in the 24-to-960-hour time-lapse modes and the still playback mode. When using the composite video terminal, digital Y/C separation circuitry assures 400 lines of resolution.

S-VHS ET Recording

AG-TL750 is also equipped with S-VHS ET (Expansion Technology). It allows you to record high-resolution S-VHS signals on HG VHS tapes for horizontal resolution of more than 400 lines (even in the colour mode). Images are clear and sharp enough for accurate surveillance.
With clearer, shaper images, improved still and slow motion picture quality as well as improved dubbing performance, this affordable high-resolution recording system gives you the tools you need to analyze recorded images in much greater detail.

Wide Variety of Recording Mode

A wide variety of recording modes give the AG-TL750 the versatility to meet the broadest range of applications. Recording times are selectable from 3H (Standard mode), L12H/L24H (Linear Slow with Audio), and 24H/48H/72H/120H/168H/240H/480H/960H (Time-Lapse mode) when an E180 tape is used.

Detailed Images by Field Recording

The field recording system of the AG-TL750 provides twice the recorded information that can be attained with the conventional frame recording, thus providing exceptionally detailed pictures.

Series Recording

Built-in SERIES REC IN/OUT connectors allow you to configure a variety of sophisticated time-lapse surveillance systems using the AG-TL750.
Connect several VTRs in series and automatically switch recording from one unit to the next without interrupting the recording. This enables you to extend your recording capabilities indefinitely or take advantage of shorter recording modes for longer periods.

Easy Mode Setting with On-Screen Display

The time and date for the display as well as for control of selectable functions is generated by a built-in Time/Date generator. For enhanced ease of mode selection, an on-screen menu includes time setting, internal timer recording alarm/sensor recording time mode and other functions.

Other Features

Alarm Recording
When an alarm signal is put in during recording, the 3-hour mode is automatically engaged.

Sensor Recording

With the power switch off, or when unit is set to the Stop position, recording automatically starts as soon as external alarm signal is received.
