9) Digital I/O Configuration

This feature allows users to control the effect of the state of any sensors that may be attached to the VersaCam. The camera may then be programmed (See Application Configuration and Alarm Configuration) to send E-mails and/or to transfer files by FTP in response to these external triggers.

Device Type for Input Port 1 and Port 2: The administrator may define the active state of two optional input devices connected to two camera input ports. These can be switches, infrared sensors, or any other device that meets the electrical requirements specified in the manual for your particular VersaCam model. The active states of sensing devices may be either “normally closed” or “normally open” depending on the design of the sensor. For example, a

door switch might be normally closed but open in response to an opened door, or it might be normally open but close in response to an opened door. This menu allows the administrator to specify which state matches the actuated or triggered position of the sensor. See details in Appendix 7 for specific wiring requirements for your sensor and detailed information about using these settings.

Current State for Input Port 1 and Port 2: This status area shows the current states of any digital devices connected to the two available input ports. In the status area, an “Active State” or “De-active State” message indicates the current input port status. The “De-Active State” means that either a normally-open sensor is connected, or the sensor was not detecting an ‘event’ when the ‘Apply’ button was clicked. Though this message is not updated until you confirm the ‘OK’ response from the camera after clicking the ‘Apply’ button, the VersaCam IC-360 is still receiving updated sensor readings from the input port.
