38AXIS 207W/AXIS 207MW - The I/O Terminal Connector

The I/O Terminal Connector

Used in applications for e.g. motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording, alarm notifications, etc., the I/O terminal connector provides the interface to:

1 transistor output - For connecting external devices such as relays and LED:s. Connected devices can be activated by Output buttons on the Live View page or by an Event Type. The output will show as active (in Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.

1 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 Event Configuration > Port Status).
