Ports & Devices
I/O Ports
The Axis product provides two configurable input and output ports for connection of external devices. An Axis multicable is required
when connecting external devices, see Axis multicable (sold separately) on page 56.
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
An Axis multicable is required when connecting I/O devices to the Axis product. See Axis multicable (sold separately)
on page 56.
