Alarm Connections
Connect mechanical or electrical switches to the alarm input connection to allow
event-triggered recording. When alarm inputs are configured, the camera triggers an alarm
only when the normal state (open or closed) changes (see
). See
to configure the alarm inputs.
The network camera has a LAMP setting which allows control of the moving IR cut filter
when there is a change in state from Normally Open to Normally Closed (see
for more information). In this way, the moving IR cut filter and the
day/night operation of the camera can be synchronized with external lighting changes
using a common controller such as a photocell or timer.

Normal Alarm States
Connect external devices such as sirens or flashing lights to the alarm output connector to
signal users of the camera that an alarm is activated. See
for alarm connection.
