Wireless Connection
With the IP70 wireless adaptor, you also have the option of using the wireless
connection method. Please keep in mind that you can only have one active
connection only, via LAN or wireless.
If user connects the IP camera on the intranet, then the same group of user
can share that IP camera to use. Please ensure that the wireless adaptor had
been securely fastened, otherwise it could lead to unstable connection.
Important!
1. The operation of the IP70 wireless network may be interfered should there
be other 2.4GHz devices working in the vicinity, e.g. microwave oven,
digital cordless camera, etc. You may experience slow frame rate or drops
in connection; up on such situation, we suggest that you try to move the IP
camera around the area or try to shut off other appliances.
2. Since wireless cameras cause interferences during transmission, you may
encounter erratic behaviors when there are more than 10x operating in
close proximity.
3. The default wireless connection method is via 802.11n standard and you
should experience a stable connection of up to 20 meters between the
access point and the camera unit. Your wireless performance may vary
depending on the operating environment, building material, etc.

IP70 Digital I/O Connector Block
The I/O connector on the back of the IP70 provides a central interface
between your home security system and various output devices.
The two digital inputs are normally used with security sensors, e.g. passive
infrared sensor (PIR), smoke detector, door/window open sensor, etc. This
input works by detecting a change in the state, open and closed circuit. You
can check the status of the circuit by going to the Setup > Event Setup > I/O
Status.
The output port is normally used to trigger external audio or visual indicators,
e.g. sirens or strobe lights, etc.
