AXIS P1214 Network Camera

Hardware Overview

I/O Connector

Use with external devices in combination with, for example, tampering alarms, motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications. In addition to the 0 V DC reference point and power (DC output), the I/O 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 Programming 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 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 (shown under System Options > Ports & Devices).

Power Connector

2-pin terminal block for power input. Use a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) compliant limited power source (LPS) with either a rated output power limited to ≤100 W or a rated output current limited to ≤5 A.

RJ12 Connector

The RJ12 connector is used for connecting the sensor unit to the main unit.

For information on how to shorten the sensor unit cable see Shorten Sensor Unit Cable on page 8 .

SD Card Slot

P1214 specifications

Axis Communications P1214 is a compact, high-performance network camera designed to deliver exceptional video surveillance capabilities in a variety of applications. With its advanced features and cutting-edge technology, the P1214 is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, making it a versatile choice for security monitoring.

One of the standout features of the P1214 is its high-resolution video capability, providing crisp 720p HD video quality that allows for detailed image capture in a variety of lighting conditions. This enables users to clearly identify and monitor individuals and objects within the camera’s field of view. The camera also boasts a wide dynamic range (WDR) technology which enhances image quality in challenging lighting situations, allowing for clear details in both bright and dark areas of the scene.

The P1214 is equipped with a built-in infrared (IR) illuminator, which enables night vision capabilities. This feature allows the camera to capture video in complete darkness, providing round-the-clock surveillance. The integration of the IR illuminator ensures that the camera remains vigilant even when visibility is low, thus enhancing its overall effectiveness in security applications.
