AXIS 210/211 - The I/O Terminal Connector 43

The I/O Terminal Connector

Pinout and Interface

The 4-pin I/O terminal connector provides the interface to:

1 transistor output

1 digital input

auxiliary power and GND

The terminal connector is used in applications for e.g. motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording, alarm notification via e-mail, image storage to FTP locations, etc.

Input - for connecting e.g. a push button. If the push button is pressed, the state changes and the input becomes active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status).

Output - connects e.g. an alarm device that can be activated by Output buttons on the Live View page, or by an Event Type. The output will show as active (Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.

Function

Description

4

Transistor Output

With a maximum load of 100mA and a maximum voltage of 24V DC, this output

 

 

has an open-collector NPN transistor with the emitter connected to pin 1 (GND).

 

 

If used with an external relay, a diode must be connected in parallel with the load,

 

 

for protection against voltage transients.

 

 

 

3

Digital Input

Connect to GND to activate, or leave floating (or unconnected) to deactivate.

 

 

 

2

Auxiliary DC Power Input

7-20 VDC/max 5W. Electrically connected in parallel with the PS-K power

 

 

connector, this pin provides an auxiliary connector for mains power to the unit. If

 

 

the unit is powered via this pin, a fuse should be used (rating: 1A Slow).

 

 

This pin can also be used to power auxiliary equipment, max 100mA, but note that

 

 

this is not possible when the AXIS 211 is powered by PoE.

Connect input/output devices to the terminal connector as follows:

1. Loosen the corresponding screw on top of the pin (see above for the correct pin to
