VIDEO IN
This input can be used to connect an external analog camera. It will then be possible to display the images from this camera in the AXIS 213’s web pages.
Only one image source at a time can be displayed. This is selected from System Options > Advanced > Plain Config. Open the group ImageSource and then set the ImageSource IO Video Connector to BNC for the external camera. Setting this to YC will instead show the images from the AXIS 213 itself.
VIDEO OUT
Via the standard BNC connector, this output allows the AXIS 213 to be connected directly to a traditional CCTV system. Note that to display the image from VIDEO OUT with the correct orientation, the AXIS 213 must be ceiling mounted.
RS-232C
This port can be used for generic TCP/IP or HTTP communication, and is intended for use by advanced applications and users only. The port can configured in the Serial group (set Port 1 Usage to the required protocol) in System Options > Advanced > Plain Config.
