Ports & Devices
I/O Ports
The Axis product provides four configurable input and output ports for connection of external devices. A multi-connector cable
(available from Axis) is required when connecting external devices, see Multi-Connector Cable (sold separately) on page 60.
To configure the I/O ports, go to System Options > Ports & Devices > I/O Ports. Each port can function as input or output:
• Input as Open circuit – The input becomes active when the circuit is grounded by, for example, a REX device. It remains
inactive as long as its normal state equals its current status.
• Input as Grounded circuit – The input becomes active when the circuit is opened by for example a monitor.
• Output as Open circuit – The output port is in a non-conductive state when its current status is open circuit. The current
status of an output port can be changed by, for example, an action rule.
• Output as Grounded circuit – The output port is in a conductive state when its current status is grounded circuit.
Port Status
The list on the System Options > Ports & Devices > Port Status page shows the status of the product's input and output ports.
Note
A multi-connector cable (available from Axis) is required when connecting I/O devices to the Axis product. See
Multi-Connector Cable (sold separately) on page 60.
