IO Pins for IO Alarm Linkage
I/O PINS:
- Output
- Output
- Alarm Input
- Input (GND)
Output pins: Output pins (1 & 2) can be used to enable IO linkage on alarm.
- For example, you might connect an external siren to sound when motion is detected.
- You can also manually control the output switches via the WebUI buttons & to turn the connected device ON/OFF.
Input pins: Input pins (3 & 4) can be used for 1-way external sensor input to the camera.
- For example, you might connect an external Passive Infrared (PIR) Sensor to it triggered the camera to send an e-mail and/or trigger the siren attached to the Output Pins (above).
- If you link an external alarm device to Pins 3 and 4, when Alarm Input Enable is selected, the external alarm is armed.
NOTE: All pins work as a switch only.
