Hardware installation

You must install your Digia II in an area that is secure and away from water, heat, dust, dirt, and other
substances that may damage the unit. To install your Digia II, see Figure 8 and do the following:
1. Connect a camera to any one of the camera BNC connections.
2. Connect a microphone or another audio input device to the audio input connector.
3. Connect the speakers or another audio output device to the audio output connector of the unit.
4. Connect an Ethernet cable from a computer network to the LAN port.
Note: If you connect point to point, you must use a crossover ethernet cable.
5. Connect a monitor to the main monitor BNC connector.
6. Connect any alarm inputs to the alarm input connectors. The alarm inputs can be:
Normally open (NO). Where the relay contact is in an open state. When the contact is closed, an alarm is
triggered from 1 to 60 seconds in duration.
Normally closed (NC). Where the relay contact is in a closed state. When the contact is open, an alarm is
triggered from 1 to 60 seconds in duration.
NO trans. Where a relay is in an open state. When the contact is closed, an alarm is triggered and will
remain until the contact is opened again.
NC tran. Where a relay is in a closed state. When the contact is opened, an alarm is triggered and will
remain until the contact is closed again.
7. Connect your external device, such as an alarm panel, to the following alarm output connectors:
• ALM-COM (common)
• ALM-NO (normally open)
• ALM-NC (normally closed)
These connectors have a built-in relay which can trigger your external device.
Note:
8. Connect the 19 VDC power supply to the unit, and then connect it to the wall outlet.
To install your Digia II in a standard 19-inch rack, you need to order the rack-mount kit (Digia2RK) separately.
Note: Non-LPS or TNV output connectors identify the type of circuit, intended cable type, or relevant circuit characteristics.
