Io Ports Window - Cisco 7000 Series Configuration Manual

IO Ports Window

IO Ports Window
The IO Ports window lets you configure various options for the input and output ports on the IP camera.
A state change of an input port triggers a camera to take a configured action. An output port sends signals
that can control external devices, such as alarms or door switches.
The IP camera can trigger an action only when input that is received on an input port comes from a
contact that is in a normally closed condition. The camera triggers the action when the contact changes
to an open condition.
To display the IO Ports window, perform the following steps:
Procedure
From the IP camera user interface, click the Setup link.
Step 1
Click Feature Setup to expand the menu.
Step 2
From the Feature Setup menu, click IO Ports.
Step 3
The IO Ports window appears. If you change any options in this window, you must click the Save
Settings button to save the changes. If you do not click this button, changes are not retained when you
exit the window. Save Settings appears at the bottom of the window. You may need to scroll down to it.
