How to direct the camera and open the lock to a gate when someone is nearby
This example explains how to direct the camera and open a gate when someone wants to enter during daytime. This is done by
connecting a PIR detector to the product’s input port and a switch relay to the product’s output port.
Required hardware
•
Mounted PIR detector
•
Switch relay connected to the gate lock, in this case the switch is normally closed (NC)
•
Connecting wires
Physical connection
1. Connect the wires from the PIR detector to the input pin, see
I/O connector on page 19
.
2. Connect the wires from the switch to the output pin, see
I/O connector on page 19
Configure I/O ports
You need to connect the switch relay to the camera in the camera’s webpage. First, configure the I/O ports:
Set the PIR detector to an input port

list.
Set the switch relay to an output port
1. Go to
System
