13D-Link DCS-5230 User Manual
Section 1 - Product Overview
As the Digital Input signal is controlled by an external device, we recommend that you set your device to feed no current
normally, and feed a 12V current only to trigger a DI event on the DCS-5230.
Example use of DI/DO:
You can connect a motion sensor to the DI port, signaling the camera to take a snapshot and to trigger an alarm
connected to the DO port.
DI: Receives signals from an outside sensor. Connect any external security device to the DI port.
DO: Triggers an output device such as a buzzer or alarm.
Note: External device ports connected to the DI or DO port must provide 12V power.
