How to Connect Digital Input / Digital Output Devices
Depending on your surveillance needs, you may need to 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.
