AXIS 211M - I/O Terminal Connector37I/O Terminal ConnectorThe I/O terminal connector is used in applications such as motion detection,event triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications. It provides theinterface to:• 1 transistor output - For connecting external devices such as relays andLEDs. Connected devices can be activated by the AXIS VAPIX API, out-put buttons on the Live View page or by an Event Type. The outputwill show as active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status) ifthe alarm device is activated.• 1 digital input - An alarm input for connecting devices that can togglebetween an open and closed circuit, for example: PIRs, door/window contacts, and glass break detec-tors. When a signal is received the state changes and the input becomes active (shown under EventConfiguration > Port Status).• Auxiliary power and GND.Function Pin number Notes SpecificationsGND 15V DC Power 2 Can be used as an alternative power supply (7-20VDC) or to powerauxiliary equipment +5VDC (100mA).Max load = 100mADigital Input 3 Connect to GND to activate, or leave floating (or unconnected) todeactivate.Must not be exposed to voltages greaterthan20VDCTransistor Output 4 Connects to GND when activated. If used with an external relay, adiode must be connected in parallel with the load for protectionagainst voltage transients.Max load =100mAMax voltage = 24VDC(to the transistor)Pin 3Pin 4 Pin 2Pin 1Terminal connector.
