The Alarm mode in the Image Transfer feature requires the external sensors/
devices to be connected to the External Sensor Input of the External I/O. Certain
features of this Network Camera can be activated by an external sensor that
senses physical changes in the area Network Camera is monitoring. These
changes can include motion detection or a physical change in...](http://img.usermanuals.tech/thumb/58/66642/w64_kx-hcm8_en_om_d-90.png "Page 91

important part. Keep maintenance when using Network Camera. After removing
dust from the Fixed Focus Lens, wipe the Fixed Focus Lens with lens cleaning
paper.

Certain features of this Network Camera can be activated by an external sensor that senses physical changes in the area Network Camera is monitoring. These changes can include motion detection or a physical change in the monitored area. The external sensor can also be a door switch or an infrared motion detector. These devices are customer provided, and are available from dealers who carry surveillance and security products. Electrically, they must be able to provide a momentary contact closure. Explanation of External I/O Pin Function 1GND 2DC Power Output Terminal 8—12 V DC Maximum of 50 mA load drive is possible. 3 External Sensor Input External Sensor Input receives the signal produced by the alarm sensors, (e.g., door sensor, infrared ray sensor). Those signals can activate Image Transfer in the Alarm mode feature on page 64. Use it by opening or GND short-circuit. 4 External Device Control Output External Device Control Output sends the electric current to activate the external devices, (e.g., light, buzzer). External Output Control window can set the External Device Control Output. Refer to page 78. It is an open collector circuit, and the maximum drawing-in current is 50 mA. Prevent the maximum voltage from exceeding DC Power Output voltage of pin 2.
Operating Instructions 92 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 NETWORK CAMERA MAY RESULT IF A DEVICE IS CONNECTED TO THE EXTERNAL I/O THAT EXCEEDS ITS ELECTRICAL CAPABILITY. THE LOW VOLTAGE/CURRENT CIRCUITS AND HIGH VOLTAGE/ CURRENT CIRCUITS ARE IN THE NETWORK CAMERA CIRCUIT. THE QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD DO THE WIRING NOT BY YOURSELF. INCORRECT WIRING COULD DAMAGE NETWORK CAMERA. YOU COULD RECEIVE THE FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK. External I/O (Input/Output) are independent. Output terminal is controlled only by External Output Control window on page 78. Light Door Sensor Relay Network Camera 8 12 VDC4 3 2 1
