AXIS 211M Installation Guide

Unit connectors

Network connector - RJ-45 Ethernet connector. Supports Power over Ethernet. Using shielded cables is recommended.

Power connector - Mini DC connector. 7-20V DC, max 5W. See product label for ± connection.

Audio in - 3.5mm input for a mono microphone, or a line-in mono signal (left channel is used from a stereo signal).

Audio out - Audio output (line level) that can be connected to a public address (PA) system or an active speaker with a built-in amplifier. A pair of headphones can also be attached. A stereo connector must be used for the audio out.

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

1 transistor output - For connecting exter- nal devices such as relays and LEDs. Con- nected devices can be activated by AXIS VAPIX AP, output buttons on the Live View page or by an Event Type. The out- put will show as active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.

Pin 1

Terminal connector. Note that the pins are numbered 1-4, right to left.

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).
