Connecting a PTZ Camera
The RS485 connector can be used to control Pan / Tilt / Zoom (PTZ) cameras.
See the PTZ camera manufacturer’s manual for configuring the RS485
connection.
Note Use the RS485 connector for external control systems such as a
control keyboard. Connect RX-/TX- and RX+/TX+ of the control
system to the TX-/RX- and TX+/RX+ (respectively) of the DVR.
Connecting to a Sensor Input
To make connections on the Alarm Connector Strip: Remove the Alarm In
block from the DVR for easy access. Use a small screw driver to open the
connection and insert the wire into the hole. To disconnect the wire loosen the
connection with the screw driver and pull the wire out.
Alarm In
Use external devices to send a signal to the DVR when an event occurs.
Mechanical or electrical switches can be wired to the Alarm In and Ground
(GND) connectors.
Note All connectors marked GND are common. Connect the ground side
of the alarm input and/or alarm output to the GND connector.
Connecting to a Relay Output
To make connections on the Alarm Connector Strip: Remove the Alarm Out
block from the DVR for easy access. Use a small screw driver to open the

The DVR can activate external devices such as buzzers or lights. Connect the
external device to the Alarm Out and Ground (GND) connectors. See Sensor
