Hikvision ColorVi AcuSense Dome - Alarm in?

[nos707]

Afternoon all,

I have just installed a couple of DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL cameras which work great! They have additional plugs, alarm in and audio in. Does anyone else have any experience with adding alarms directly to a cam? I run PIRs and sirens from the NVR but i'm wondering if I can trigger a siren directly from this new camera?

You can trigger any event by Alarm input, or any event can trigger alarm output.

On output u can put anything u like as long u respect alarm output maximum voltage and current.

Also u can trigger alarm output from alarm input.

Triggering screenshot on alarm input.

Theres alot of scenarious u can do with it. You can even manually trigger those from hik-connect or web interface, for instance, running led lights and using cameras as half automatization for it(schedule switch).

If camera is acusence you can turn on light over output by recognizing human, basicly making any led into "LED with PIR sensor".

The limit is only your imagination.

ps: Alarm output is Open Collector, not classic electromagnetic relay
