6.1.7 Loading Settings from a Configuration File
Camera settings can be loaded from a configuration file. If you reset the camera to 
factory default, the camera can load previously used settings from a configuration 
file.
Note
 The configuration file also saves network settings. When settings are loaded, 
the network settings are also loaded. 
 If you try to update the camera, create a configuration file after updating the 
firmware. If there is a firmware version difference between the camera that you 
create a configuration file from and the camera that you try to load settings to, 
the settings may not have been loaded to the camera.
1.Click [Load Settings] on the Maintenance page.
2.Click [Browse...].
3.Select the configuration file on the Choose file dialog box, and click [Open].
 The file name is displayed in the data field.
4.Confirm the file name, and click [Load].
5.Click [Restar t].
 The camera restarts, and the Top page is displayed.

PM mode. To change it to 24-h format, see page 77. 
 See page 167—page 177 for the default settings.
 Pressing the FACTORY DEFAULT RESET button resets the camera to 
factory default (see page 166).
 All buffered images on the internal memory are deleted when resetting the 
camera to factory default. The buffered images on the SD memory card

6.3 External I/O
If you connect external devices such as sensors to the External I/O, and image 
buffer/transfer by alarm signal is set, the camera image is transferred by alarm 
detection.
Explanation of the External I/O
Note
 The External I/O (Input/Output) are independent. Output terminal is controlled 
only by External Output Control page on page 152.Pin Features
G GND pin
1 External Sensor Input 1
 Use it by opening or GND short-circuit.
G GND pin
2 External Sensor Input 2
 Use it by opening or GND short-circuit.
3 External Device Control Output
 You can control this on the External Output page (see page 
152).
 It is an open collector circuit, and the maximum drawing-in 
current is the same as pin 4. Do not exceed the voltage of DC 
power output terminal (pin 4).
4 DC Power Output Terminal
 10.5—13.5 V DC
 A maximum of 100 mA load drive is possible.

Circuit Diagram Example
CAUTION
 The external I/O is not capable of connecting directly to devices that 
require large amounts of current. In some cases, a custom interface 
circuit (customer-provided) may have to be used. Serious damage to the 
camera may result if a device that exceeds its electrical capability is 
connected to the external I/O (see page 164).
 Low voltage/current circuits and high voltage/current circuits are used in 
the camera circuit. All wiring should be performed by a qualified 
electrician. Incorrect wiring could damage the camera and cause a fatal 
electric shock.
