Sample Settings
Using the Still Picture Recording Function Linked to an External Device
This is a monitoring system in which the lighting unit needed to take pictures switches on when the
door opens and the VC-C4R camera mounted on the ceiling captures still images. The equipment
shown in the figure below is connected to the terminals on the back of the VB101 at installation.
Sample application in combination with a door-opening sensor and lighting unit
By using the "External Device Input 1/2" setting and connecting devices such as sensors and switches to
the VB101, you can construct a monitoring system that operates in response to external changes. The still
images captured in this way are recorded on a memory card inserted into the VB101.
Installation Example
When the door opens and
Sensor B moves away from
sensor A, connection input
In1 generates an ON event.
In response to this event,
Out1 is controlled to switch
on the lighting unit and
images of the entrance are
captured and recorded by
the camera.
