The product shall be connected using a shielded network cable (STP). All cables connecting
the product to the network shall be intended for their specific use. Make sure that the
network devices are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. For
information about regulatory requirements, see Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) 2.
I/O Connector
Use with external devices in combination with, for example, tampering alarms, motion detection,
event triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications. In addition to the 0 V DC reference
point and power (DC output), the I/O connector provides the interface to:
• Digital output – For connecting external devices such as relays and LEDs. Connected
devices can be activated by the VAPIX® Application Programming Interface, output
buttons on the Live View page or by an Action Rule. The output will show as active
(shown under System Options > Ports & Devices) if the alarm device is activated.
• Digital input – An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open
and closed circuit, for example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass break detectors,
etc. When a signal is received the state changes and the input becomes active (shown
under System Options > Ports & Devices).
Power Connector
2-pin terminal block for power input. Use a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) compliant limited
power source (LPS) with either a rated output power limited to ≤100 W or a rated output current
limited to ≤5 A.
RJ12 Connector
The RJ12 connector is used for connecting the sensor unit to the main unit.
For information on how to shorten the sensor unit cable see Shorten Sensor Unit Cable.
