APPENDIX D: OPTIONAL CONNECTIONS AND INSTALLATION
This appendix discusses optional connections to external devices and additional
installation information that may be needed to complete your installation.
NOTE: See Before You Make Connections on page 7 prior to performing installation
procedures.
Optional Connections
• Connect the Call Monitor to the Call Monitor Output BNC.
• Connect external alarm devices to the External I/O Connector board.
• Connect the External USB or IEEE 1394 HDD, if available.
• Connect the audio I/O devices to the audio I/O ports (See Audio Connection on
page 122).
• Connect the remote keyboard to the RJ-11 RS-485 port. An RJ-11 to RJ-45 adapter or
connector may be required for ControlCenter 200/300 Keyboards.
NOTE: If you have multiple units, dome cameras, and keyboard devices on the same
RS-485 bus, make sure that each device has its own unique ID address.
• Connect the Ethernet cable for remote network access (See IP Address Setup
Information on page 122).
• Connect an external modem to the USB port if using pager notification or dial-
in/out communication. The external modem may require a serial converter.
NOTE: Dial-in/out and Pager support requires an external USB Modem, or an RS-
232 Modem with a USB to RS-232 converter. A dedicated analog standard
POTS line is also required. Do not use a PBX or digital line with this modem.
