I/O Status
The VIP4G has 4 status inputs, which can be used with various alarms and sensors for
monitoring, telling the modem when certain events have occurred, such as an intrusion alarm on
a door, a temperature threshold has been exceed, or a generator has failed, out of fuel. Also
included are 4 outputs, that can be used to drive external relays to remotely control equipment
and devices.
Input Status
The WebUI will display the current state of each input. The I/O pins are all normally open so an
open status indicates that there is nothing connected to the input pins, or that an event has not
occurred to trigger the input.
Output Status
The WebUI will display the current state of each control output. Using the Output menu
discussed in the next section, a user can remotely control the status of the output pins.
