AXIS Q6035-C PTZ Dome Network Camera
Hardware Overview
Each RJ-45 and SFP network connector port has its own dip switch. The dip switches control how the port forwards data. See
Network Connector Dip Switches
.
Network connector (internal) -
Two 2-pin Ethernet terminal blocks.
I/O connector (external) -
6-pin configurable I/O terminal block, which is connected to the camera through the multi-connector
cable. Use with external devices in combination with, for example, tampering alarms, motion detection, event triggering, time lapse
recording and alarm notifications. In addition to ground and power (DC output), the I/O terminal connector provides the interface to:
•
Digital output –
For connecting external devices such as relays and LEDs. Connected devices can be activated
by the VAPIX® Application Programming Interface, output buttons on the Live View page or by an Action Rule.
The output will show as active (shown under
System Options > Port & Devices > Port Status
) if the alarm
device is activated.
•
Digital input –
An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open and closed circuit, for
example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass break detectors, etc. When a signal is received the state changes and
the input becomes active (shown under
System Options > Port & Devices > Port Status
).
I/O connector (internal) -
2–pin I/O terminal block.
Network Connector Dip Switches
Important
Always use the default dip switch setting (position B) if the relationship between devices in the system is not defined.
The camera attaches a particular VLAN tag to all its forwarded multicast packages. The media converter switch manages how these
multicast packages are forwarded between cameras, media converter switches and other network devices. This especially useful when
connecting the camera and media converter switch to the network in a daisy chain.
By changing the position of the dip switches, each network connector port in the media converter switch can be configured
to manage multicasts in three different ways.
Dip switch position
Description
Default (middle)
B
Remove VLAN tags from forwarded multicast packages. Use this setting when connecting to the
network, directly or through a router or network switch.
Left
A
Block multicast packages that have a VLAN tag. Use this setting when connecting to a device that is
not intended for multicast viewing.
Right
C
Forward multicast packages with a VLAN tag. Use this setting when connecting to another media
converter switch.
VLAN tags are used to create independent logical networks, virtual local area networks (VLANs), within a physical network. Multiple
media converter switches that are connected to each other in a daisy chain are members of the same VLAN. The media converter
