Introduction

1.1 Cable
Waterproof all the cable joints with insulating tape and waterproof tape to avoid short circuit and water damage. For the detailed operation, see FAQ manual. Table 1-1 Cable information

● Provides power to the device with PoE.
**** PoE is available on select models.
2| Power port| Inputs 12 VDC power. Be sure to supply power as instructed in the manual.

Device abnormity or damage might occur if power is not supplied correctly.
3| Audio input| BNC port. Connects to sound pickups to receive audio signal.
4| Audio output| BNC port. Connects to speaker to output audio signal.
5| Alarm I/O| Includes alarm signal input and output ports, and the number of I/O ports might vary on different devices. For detailed information, see Table 1-2.

Table 1-2 Description of Alarm I/O Port

When connecting to alarm device, only the ALARM_OUT port and ALARM_OUT_GND port with the same number can be used together.
ALARM_OUT_GND
ALARM_IN| Receives the switch signal of external alarm source.
Connect different alarm input devices to the same ALARM_IN_GND port.
ALARM_IN_GND

1.2 Connecting Alarm Input/Output
The camera can connect to external alarm input/output device through digital input/output port.
**** Alarm input/output is available on select models.
Step 1 Connect alarm input device to the alarm input end of the I/O port.
Device collects different states of alarm input port when the input signal is idling and being grounded.

• Device collects logic “1” when input signal is connected to +3 V to +5 V or idling.
• Device collects logic “0” when input signal is grounded.

Step 2 Connect alarm output device to the alarm output end of the I/O port. The alarm output is open-drain output, which works in the following modes.

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

Step 3 Log in to web interface, and configure alarm input and alarm output in alarm setting.

• The alarm input on the web interface is corresponding to the alarm input end of the I/O port. There will be high level and low level alarm signal generated by the alarm input device when 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 on the web interface is corresponding to the alarm output end of the device, which is also alarm output end of the I/O port.
