Step 4. Connect the RJ45 cable from the network. This
device is powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE).
If PoE is unavailable from the network switch then
an inline power injector will be required.
Step 5. Program the VIP-172AL using the VIP-102B IP
Solutions Setup Tool.
The VIP172-RLY External Relay adapter increases
security for door unlock mechanisms. By installing the
VIP172-RLY in a protected area, the relay connections
can be protected from tampering. When installed inline
as shown in this drawing, the relay connections on the
Door Plate are not functional.
