V920D Series Quick Installation Guide
Connect a standard RJ-45 cable to the network port of the network camera. Generally a
cross-over cable is used for directly connection to PC, while a direct cable is used for connection
to a hub.
A router featuring PoE (Power over Ethernet) can also be used to supply power to the camera.
• Connecting Alarms
AI (Alarm In):
External devices can be used to signal the network camera to react on events. Mechanical or
electrical switches can be wired to the AI (Alarm In) and G (Ground) connectors.
G (Ground):
Connect the ground side of the alarm input and/or alarm output to the G (Ground) connector.
Alarm Out:
The network camera can activate external devices such as buzzers or lights. Connect the device
to the AO (Alarm Out) and G (Ground) connectors.
• Connecting the Power
Connect the power of 12 VDC or 24 VAC for the network camera. Connect the positive (+) pole to
the ‘+’ position and the negative (-) pole to the ‘-’ position for the DC power.
Be careful not to reverse the polarity when connecting the power cable.
A router featuring PoE (Power over Ethernet) can also be used to supply power to the
camera.
The heater can only be powered by a 24 VAC power source.
If using PoE, the heater will not operate at all.
For the power specifications, refer to the Appendix, Product Specification.
If PoE and 12 VDC are both applied, the camera will be supplied with power from PoE.
