Multi-Connector Cable (sold separately)

Multi-Connector Cable (sold separately)

When connecting external equipment to the Axis product, a multi-connector cable (available from Axis) is required in order to maintain the product’s IP rating. The multi-connector cable can be purchased from your Axis reseller.

Connect the multi-connector cable to the product’s multi-connector (see page 5 ). The cable provides the following connectors:

Note

See page 57 for technical specifications.

Power connector - 3-pin terminal block used for power input. See image below.

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

Audio out (green) - 3.5 mm output for audio (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 - Use in applications for e.g. motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications. In addition to an auxiliary power and a GND pin, the I/O terminal 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 > Port & Devices > Port Status) 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 > Port & Devices > Port Status).
