The I/O Terminal Block - Axis 210 User Manual

The I/O Terminal Block

Pinout and Interface
The 4-pin I/O terminal block connector provides the interface to:
• 1 transistor output
• 1 digital input
• auxiliary power and GND
The terminal block is used in applications for e.g. motion detection, event triggering, time
lapse recording, alarm notification via email, image storage to FTP locations, etc.
• Input - for connecting e.g. a doorbell. If the doorbell is pressed, the state changes
and the input becomes active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status.)
• Output - connects e.g. an alarm device that can be activated by Output buttons
on the Live View page, or by an Event Type. The output will show as active
(Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.

AXIS 210/211 - The I/O Terminal Block
Description
With a maximum load of 100mA and a maximum voltage of 24V DC,
this output has an open-collector NPN transistor with the emitter con-
nected to pin 1 (GND). If used with an external relay, a diode must be
connected in parallel with the load, for protection against voltage tran-
sients.
Connect to GND to activate, or leave floating (or unconnected) to
deactivate.
7-20 VDC/min 7W. Electrically connected in parallel with the PS-k
power connector, this pin provides an auxiliary connector for mains
power to the unit. If the unit is powered via this pin, a fuse should be
used (rating: 1A Slow).
This pin can also be used to power auxiliary equipment, max 100mA,
but note that this is not possible when the AXIS 211 is powered by PoE.
