Ｂ-1 I/O Control Instruction
I/O terminal connector – used in application, for e.g., motion detection, event
triggering, alarm notifications. It provides the interface to:
1 Digital Input (GND+Alarm) – An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle
between an open and closed circuit, for example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass
break detectors, etc. When a signal is received the state changes and the input becomes
active.
1 Relay output (COM +N.O.) – An output to Relay switch, for example: LEDs, Sirens,
etc
Digital Input
Alarm Input
1. GND (Ground) : Initial state is LOW
2. Alarm : Max. 50mA, 12VDC
Relay Output
1. COM: (Common)
2. N.O. (Normally Open): Max. 1A, 24VDC or 0.5A, 125VAC

B-3 Power Over Ethernet PoE – (Optional) 802.3af, 15.4W PoE Switch is recommended
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that integrates power into a
standard LAN infrastructure. It enables power to be provided to the network
device, such as an IP phone or a network camera, using the same cable as that
used for network connection. It eliminates the need for power outlets at the
camera locations and enables easier application of uninterruptible power
supplies (UPS) to ensure 24 hours a day, 7 days a week operation.
