I/O Connector
I/O Terminal Block:
I/O Connector
I/O Connector Definition for the Internet Camera
The DCS-2000 provides a general I/O terminal block with one digital input and
one relay switch for device control. Pin 1 and pin 2 can be connected to an
external sensor and the state of voltage will be monitored from the initial state
‘LOW’. The relay switch of pin 3 and pin 4 can be used to turn the external
device on or off.
The I/O connector provides the physical interface for digital output (DO) and
digital input (DI) that is used for connecting a diversity of external alarm devices
to the Internet Camera such as IR-Sensors and alarm relays.
The digital input is used for connecting external alarm devices and once triggered
images will be taken and e-mailed.

The above diagram shows a typical wiring configuration for a normally closed
PIR motion sensor. Please refer to your specific motion sensor for the power
supply connection to the device since this will be critical to the success of your
installation. Note that the positive from the PIR is connected to the D- of the I/O
port of the camera and the negative from the PIR is connected to the D+ of the
camera I/O port.
Configuring Your Camera for External Trigger Based Recording
I/O Connector (continued)
To configure your camera to record when triggered by an external device,
you must first set your SMTP or FTP settings in order to send snapshots to
your email account or FTP server.

button under the
Advanced
tab to set the SMTP or FTP
server settings for the
DCS-2000
.
In this window, enter the settings for the SMTP or FTP server to which recorded
snapshots will be sent. For detailed information about each setting, please refer

Next, click the
Applications
button under the
Tools
tab to set
the application settings for the
DCS-2000
.
In this window, follow the steps below to set the application settings for
snapshots to be sent to your e-mail account or FTP server when triggered by a
motion sensor or other external device:
c
Select the weekdays you would like to record and enter the
“Snapshots begin” time and “Snapshots end” time for the weekly
schedule, or select “All the time except for the above schedule” if you
want to enable full time snapshot recording.
d
Check “Event operation.”
e
Set the delay “before detecting next event” to avoid continuous false
alarms following the original event.
f
Set the delay to “take snapshots after event” to capture the direction
of the moving object.
5
Check the trigger condition for input and motion detection (in this
case “Input is Low”).
6
Check “Trigger output alarm while input condition matched” and
“Upload snapshots while motion detected.”
7
Select to either send snapshots by email or by FTP.
Click
Applications
Click the apply button when finished. You are now able to send snapshots,
based on triggered recording, to your email account or FTP server.

Adjusting the Cameras Focus
The
DCS-2000
Internet Camera features an interchangeable C/CS-type lens
that can be used for different applications as necessary. It supports rotational
focus control so the lens can be adjusted to focus under normal and stable
conditions to maximize the image quality of the Internet Camera.
To adjust the focus of the lens you will need to turn the lens slowly either
clockwise or counterclockwise until the desired image appears. DO NOT over-
turn the lens in either direction as it will be out of focus and may damage the
camera. Unless you want to substitute the lens DO NOT unscrew more than
1.0mm apart from the Fixed Lens Assembly.
To help you get the best image quality, keep in mind that while adjusting the
DCS-2000
’s focus you can preview the image quality from your Web browser.
