51AXIS 210A/211A - The I/O Terminal ConnectorThe I/O Terminal ConnectorPinout and InterfaceThe 4-pin I/O terminal connector provides the interface to:• 1 transistor output• 1 digital input• auxiliary power and GNDThe terminal connector is used in applications for e.g. motion detection, event triggering,time lapse recording, alarm notification via e-mail, image storage to FTP locations, etc.• Input - for connecting e.g. a push button. If the push button is pressed, the statechanges and the input becomes active (shown under Event Configuration > PortStatus).• Output - connects e.g. an alarm device that can be activated by Output buttonson the Live View page, or by an Event Type. The output will show as active(Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.Connect input/output devices to the terminal connector as follows:1. Loosen the corresponding screw on top of the pin (see above for the correct pin toPin Function Description4 Transistor Output With a maximum load of 100mA and a maximum voltage of 24V DC, this outputhas an open-collector NPN transistor with the emitter connected to pin 1 (GND).If used with an external relay, a diode must be connected in parallel with the load,for protection against voltage transients.3 Digital Input Connect to GND to activate, or leave floating (or unconnected) to deactivate.2 Auxiliary DC Power Input 7-20 VDC/max 5W. Electrically connected in parallel with the PS-K powerconnector, this pin provides an auxiliary connector for mains power to the unit. Ifthe unit is powered via this pin, a fuse should be used (rating: 1A Slow).This pin can also be used to power auxiliary equipment, max 100mA, but note thatthis is not possible when the AXIS 210A/AXIS 211/211A is powered by PoE.1 GNDPin 4Pin 3Pin 2Pin 1Pin 4Pin 3Pin 2Pin 1
