Step 6
Connect cables to the External I/O terminals, microphone/
line input connector, audio output connector and the
monitor out connector for adjustment. When connecting
these cables, hold the main body of the camera.

• External I/O terminals
Connect external devices.
When connecting an external device, remove 9 mm - 10 mm
{11/32 inches - 13/32 inches} of the outer jacket of the cable
and twist the cable core to prevent the short circuit first.
Specification of cable (wire): AWG #22 - #28,
EXT I/O terminal 2
(ALARM IN2/ALARM OUT)
EXT I/O terminal 1
(ALARM IN1/ DAY/NIGHT IN)

EXT I/O terminal 3
(ALARM IN3/AUX OUT (Auxiliary output))
GND
IMPORTANT:
• Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal.
When it is necessary to connect 2 or more wires, use
a splitter.
• Off, input, and output of the external I/O terminal 2
and 3 can be switched by configuring the setting.
Refer to the Operating Instructions on the provided
CD-ROM for further information about the EXT I/O
terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) settings ("Off",
"Alarm input", "Alarm output" or "AUX output").
• The default of EXT I/O terminals is "Off". When "Off" is
selected, it is possible to connect external devices as
well as the input setting.
• When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output termi-
nals, ensure they do not cause signal collision with
external signals.

• ALARM IN1/ DAY/NIGHT IN, ALARM IN2, ALARM IN3
Input specification: No-voltage make contact input
(4 V - 5 V DC, internally pulled up)
OFF: Open or 4 V - 5 V DC
ON: Make contact with GND (required drive current:
1 mA or more)

Strip range
Approx. 9 mm - 10 mm
{11/32 inches - 13/32 inches}
• ALARM OUT, AUX OUT
Output specification: Open collector output
(maximum applied voltage: 20 V DC)
Open: 4 V - 5 V DC by internal pull-up
Close: Output voltage 1 V DC or less
(maximum drive current: 50 mA)
• Microphone/line input cable
Connect a monaural mini plug (ø3.5 mm).
• Input impedance: Approx. 2 kΩ (unbalanced)
• Recommended cable length:
Less than 1 m {3.28 feet} (for microphone input)
Less than 10 m {32.8 feet} (for line input)
• Recommended microphone: Plug-in power type (option)
• Supply voltage: 2.5 V ±0.5 V
• Recommended sensitivity of microphone: –48 dB ±3 dB
(0 dB=1 V/Pa,1 kHz)
• Input level for the line input: Approx. –10 dBV
• Recommended plug: L type
IMPORTANT:
• Connect/disconnect the audio cables and turn on the
power of the camera after turning off the power of the
audio output devices. Otherwise, loud noise may be
heard from the speaker.
• Audio output cable
Connect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm) (Audio output is
monaural.). Use an external powered speaker.
• Output impedance: Approx. 600 Ω (unbalanced)
• Recommended cable length: Less than 10 m {32.8 feet}
• Output level: –20 dBV
• Recommended plug: L type (A straight type plug must
be 40 mm {1-9/16 inches} or less.)
Note:
• Make sure that the stereo mini plug is connected to
this cable. When a monaural mini plug is connected,
audio may not be heard.
When connecting a monaural speaker with amplifier,
use an optional conversion cable (mono-stereo).
• Monitor out connector for adjustment
Connect a monaural mini plug (ø3.5 mm) (only for check-
ing if images are displayed on the monitor).
• Recommended plug: Straight type (Because of the
pin array difference, it is difficult to fit an L type plug
into this connector.)
IMPORTANT:
• The monitor out connector for adjustment is provided
only for checking the adjustment of the angular field
of view on the video monitor when installing the cam-
era or when servicing.
It is not provided for recording/monitoring use.
• Black bands may appear at the top and bottom or
right and left of the screen. (That does not affect the
adjustment because the angular field of view is not
changed.)
