Description
1
Digital Input / Output
(DI/DO)
Connects to digital input or output devices, such as an alarm
trigger, panic button, etc. Digital Input (DI) and Digital Output
(DO) devices are used in applications like motion detection,
event triggering, alarm notifications, etc. Please refer to
Preparing the DI/DO Connector on page 13 for information on
how to connect DI/DO devices to your camera.

Audio IN / Audio
OUT Jacks
The Audio IN jack connects to an audio input device, such as a
microphone with built-in amplifier. The Audio OUT jack connects
to an audio output device, such as a speaker.
NOTE: Make sure that the connected audio input device has a
built-in amplifier. Connecting an ordinary microphone will dwarf
sounds and will result in inaudible recording.

3. Rotate the dome cover clockwise to attach it.
Preparing the Power Adapter
In case of using a non-PoE switch or your PoE switch has limited power supply, you can use
the bundled power adapter and directly connect the camera to a power outlet. The power
adapter must be connected to the supplied terminal block before use.
To do this, follow the procedures below:
1. Loosen the screws of the 12V and GND pins of the power terminal block.

2. Take note that the power adapter cable has two (2) different wires:
3. Connect the wire with the white stripe to the 12V pin and the other to the GND pin.
4. Tighten the screws of the 12V pin and the GND pins to secure the wire connection.
5. Attach one of the bundled adapter plugs suitable in your location.

Hardware Manual
Preparing the DI/DO Connector
Depending on your surveillance needs, you may connect digital input or output devices to your
camera to trigger events or notifications.
Digital Input (DI) devices can be used to notify the camera about an activity in the camera site.
DI can be triggers of events. For example, you can connect a “panic button” to the camera; as
such when the panic button is pressed, the alarm signal will be sent through the camera. Other
common DI device applications are emergency button, smoke detector, passive infrared
sensor, etc.
Digital Output (DO) devices are external devices that are activated by the camera upon an
event inside the camera. For example, you can connect an “alarm horn” to the camera; as
such when an event occurs inside the camera (e.g. detected intruder), the alarm horn will
sound. Other common DO device applications are motion-triggered lights, electric fence,
magnetic door locks, etc.
You can connect up to two DI and two DO devices to your camera.
To connect input devices (DI), map the pins to one of the pin combinations below:
To connect output devices (DO), map the pins to one of the pin combinations below:
