Network
You can connect the VIP XD to a 10/100 Base-T network using a standard UTP category 5
cable with RJ45 plugs.
Data Interface
The bi-directional data interface is used to control units connected to the VIP XD, for example
a control panel for dome cameras with motorized lens. The connection supports the RS-232,
RS-422 and RS-485 transmission standards.
The VIP XD offers the serial interface via the orange terminal block (see Section 8.6 Terminal
Block, page 66).
The range of controllable equipment is expanding constantly. The manufacturers of the
relevant equipment provide specific information on installation and control.

Alarm Inputs
The VIP XD has four alarm inputs on the orange terminal block (see Section 8.6 Terminal Block,
page 66). The alarm inputs are used to connect to external alarm devices such as door
contacts or sensors. With the appropriate configuration, an alarm sensor can automatically
connect the VIP XD to a particular sender, for example.
A zero potential closing contact or switch can be used as the actuator.
