Hardware overview
• ConnectingtoAXISInternetDynamicDNSService. Seepage 35. To connect, press and hold the button for
about 3 seconds.
• Resetting the product to factory default settings. See page 42.
Power connector - 2-pin terminal block for power input.
I/O connector
DC power input
RS-485/422 connector
Note
For technical specifications, see page 49.
I/O terminal connector - Use in applications for e.g. motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications.
In addition to an auxiliary power and a GND pin, the I/O terminal connector provides the interface to:
• Digital output — For connecting external devices such as relays and LEDs. Connected devices can be activated by
the VAPIX® Application Programm ing Interface, output buttons on the Live View page or by an Action Rule. The
output will show as active (shown under System Options > Ports & Devices) if the alarm device is activated.
• Digital input — An alarm input for connecting device s that can toggle between an open and closed circuit, for
example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass break detectors, e tc. When a signal is received the state changes a nd
the input becom es active (shown under System Options > Ports & Devices).
Note
The I/O connector is connected to the housing (fan/heater) on delivery, and will trigger an input port event to indicate
a fan or heater error when activated. See Events, on page 28 for information on how to set up an event.
