Using the DCS-1000/DCS-1000W IP Camera
as a Security System
D-Link’s IP Camera System is one of the most cost
effect security solutions today. Both the DCS-1000
Wired model and DCS-1000W Wired/Wireless model
have input/output controls for interfacing with security
systems.
On the back of the Camera you will find an 8-position
connector. This connector has 2 input triggers for
security sensors and 2 output triggers for security
alarms.
Security sensors for input are available as Passive (low-
current/low voltage) sensors or Active (powered)
sensors.
Because of power limitations of the DCS cameras and
its compatibility with Power over Ethernet standards the
sensor power requirement must be obeyed for proper operation. We have listed Passive and
Active components that will interface with the DCS family of Cameras. Passive components must
not exceed 5V 100mA. Active components must be self-powered by an external power source.
For the demonstration below a D-Link DCS-1000 was purchased from www.dlinkshop.com , the
security equipment was purchased from www.smarthome.com, and some cable accessories from
a local hardware store.
