IP Camera with Alarm Input, Alarm Output / Dry Contacts
This page contains the Viewtron IP cameras with alarm input and alarm output ports / dry contacts. This allows you to connect external burglar alarm and home automation devices with the alarm input / output with your IP camera.
You can connect alarm devices such as a
magnetic door sensor or a PIR motion detector to the IP camera alarm input. The alarm input can trigger video surveillance recording, snapshot image capture, alarm output. If you are using one of the Viewtron active deterrent alarm cameras, you can also trigger an audio warning messages or siren and turn on the built-in flashing light. This is a great feature that allows installers to integrate network IP cameras with burglar alarms and home automation systems.
You can connect a flashing light or burglar alarm siren to the IP camera alarm output. Please watch these video demos to learn more.

IP Camera Alarm Input / Alarm Relay Output
This is what the wire terminal block for the alarm input ports and alarm relay output ports looks like on Viewtron IP cameras. Installers can easily connect external alarm devices such as
magnetic door sensors / widow sensors and passive infrared motion detectors to the alarm input port of these IP cameras. Ports 3 and 4 on the terminal block are the input ports.
The alarm relay output ports can be used to connect external alarm devices such as strobe lights and audio sirens. Ports 1 and 2 on the wire terminal block are the alarm relay ports. You can watch this video to learn
how-to connect an alarm light to the alarm relay output port of an IP camera.
You can find all of the Viewtron IP cameras with alarm input / output terminals here.
Alarm Relay Max Power Rating
What is the maximum power rating of the alarm relays on Viewtron IP cameras?
If you plan on connecting powered devices to the alarm output port on a Viewtron IP camera, please be aware of the electrical power rating of these relays. The electrical relays built into Viewtron IP cameras have a maximum current rating of 1A for DC power and 0.5A for AC power, with voltage ratings of 24VDC or 125VAC. So, the maximum power rating is 24 watts for DC powered alarm devices and 62.5 watts for AC powered alarm devices.

Watch these video demos to learn how-to setup a Viewtron IP camera with alarm output and input.
Trigger Relay Alarm Output from Motion Detection
Watch this video to learn how-to setup the alarm relay output port of the IP-AX4D IP camera. When the AI software of this IP camera detects a human in a certain zone, the alarm output is enabled, which turns on a flashing light. You can also see the
setup article here.
Trigger Relay Alarm Output from Mobile App, Developer API
Watch this video to learn how-to remotely trigger the IP camera's alarm relay output from the mobile app for iPhone and Android. The video also demonstrates how-to trigger the alarm output from the IP camera's web browser access. Last, Mike demonstrates how to remotely trigger the alarm output from a remote server using a custom Python application. You can download our
open source IP camera Python application here.
Trigger Alarm Relay Output from 2nd Security Camera
Watch this video to learn how-to setup setup AI human detection on a 2nd security camera to trigger the alarm relay output port of the IP-AX4D. When the AI software of the 2nd IP camera detects a human in a certain zone, the alarm output on the IP-AX4D is triggered. Both of these cameras are connected to the PoE port on a Viewtron NVR. You can also see the full
setup article here.

IP Camera System Mobile App
Here is a video demo video using the
Viewtron security camera app for iPhone. The mobile app for Android is identical. In this video, the mobile app connects to the Viewtron IP camera NVR at CCTV Camera Pros office. The CCTV Camera Pros' NVR is connected to 6
Viewtron IP cameras, including 4K AI security cameras and an LPR / ANPR camera (license plate recognition / automatic number plate recognition).
Home Security Camera System
Watch this video to see the Mike's home security camera system that currently consists of six AI cameras and a Viewtron NVR. This will give viewers ideas on locations to install security cameras on the exterior of a home.
IP Camera NVR
These
Viewtron IP camera NVRs support all of the AI functions that you see below. If you want to install a video surveillance system with multi-camera recording, and that also takes advantage of all of the artificial intelligence software functions built into these cameras, CCTV Camera Pros highly recommends that you install Viewtron AI cameras with a Viewtron network video recorder. These NVRs also have their own alarm input and alarm output ports.
