WARNING

• Please strengthen the protection of network, device data, and personal information by adopting measures that include but are not limited to using strong passwords, modifying passwords regularly, upgrading the firmware to the latest version, and isolating the computer For some devices with old firmware versions, the ONVIF password will not be modified automatically along with the modification of the system password, and you need to upgrade the firmware or manually update the ONVIF password.
• Use standard components or accessories provided by the manufacturer and make sure the device is installed and maintained by professional engineers.
• The surface of the image sensor should not be exposed to laser beam radiation in an environment where a laser beam device is used.
• Do not provide two or more power supply sources for the device unless otherwise specified. A failure to follow this instruction might cause damage to the device.

Introduction

Cable

• Cable types might vary with different devices, and the actual product shall prevail.
• Please waterproof all the cable joints with insulating tape and waterproof tape to avoid short circuits and water damage. For the detailed operation, see the FAQ Manual

ALARM_IN| Receives the switch signal of external alarm source.
ALARM_GND| Ground connection.

Connecting Alarm Input/output

Alarm input/output is available on select models.

Connect the alarm input device to the alarm input end of the I/O port, see Figures 1-2. The device collects different states of alarm input port when the input signal is idling and being grounded.

• The device collects logic “1” when an input signal is connecting to +3V to +5V or idling.
• The device collects logic “0” when an input signal is grounded.

Connect the alarm output device to the alarm output end of the I/O port. The alarm output is an open-drain output, which works in the following modes.

• Mode A: Level application. The alarm outputs high and low levels, and the alarm outlet is OD, which requires external pull-up resistance (10K Ohm typical) to work. The maximum external pull-up level is 12V, the maximum port current is 300mA and the default output signal is high level (external pull-up voltage). The default output signal switches to the low level when there is alarm output (As long as the operating current below 300mA, the output low-level voltage is lower than 0.8V).
• Mode B: Switch application. The alarm output is used to drive an external circuit, the maximum voltage is 12V and the maximum current is 300mA. If the voltage is higher than 12V, please use an additional electric relay.

Log in to the web interface, and configure alarm input and alarm output in the alarm setting.

• The alarm input in the web interface is corresponding to the alarm input end of the I/O port. There will be high-level and low-level alarm signals generated by the alarm input device when the alarm occurs, set the input mode to “NO” (default) if the alarm input signal is logic “0” and to “NC” if the alarm input signal is logic “1”.
• The alarm output in the web interface is corresponding to the alarm output end of the device, which is also the alarm output end of the I/O port.

Device initialization and IP setting can be finished with the “ConfigTool” or in the web interface. For more information, see the Web Operation Manual.

• Device initialization is available on select models, and it is required at first use and after a device is being reset.
• Device initialization is available only when the IP addresses of the device (192.168.1.108 by default) and the PC stays in the same network segment.
• Plan useable network segment properly to connect the device to the network.
• The following figures and interfaces are for reference only, and the actual product shall prevail.
