example is a “panic button”, which always stays in inactive mode “0” until the button is pressed;
when the button is pressed, its active level becomes “1” which means the DI is triggered. Active
level “1” returns back to “0” (inactive mode) after the specified
Interval
. The
Interval
is the
duration of time when the trigger remains in active mode which is also the minimum time interval
between the previous trigger and the next. For example, if the interval is set to
“5 seconds”, the DI
will
not respond if the “panic button” is pressed within 3 seconds after the previous trigger. To
issue another trigger, click the button after 5 seconds from the previous trigger.
DO
: To configure the digital output device, define the active level and response interval. The
default
Active Level
is “1”, which means the DO will turn to active mode and respond once
triggered. The duration of its response will last according to the set
Interval
. A good example is
an alarm siren, wherein the siren will start sounding only when it is triggered by an event or
another device like a DI. The siren will stop sounding once the set interval time elapsed.

Setting Configurable DI/DO Ports (for V23 / V24 only)
There are four (4) DIO ports for V23 and V24 models. These DIO ports can be configured to
either DI or DO on the
I/O
column. Every video channel can have up to 4 DIs and 4 DOs. Check
the channel number box on the
Channel
column to assign a video channel for that port.
A DO port is automatically associated to every video channel thus the channel numbers on
Channel
are automatically checked for the port that is set as DO.
Digital I/O Ports Section of V23 / V24
By default, the
Active Level
of each ports are “0”, which means the DI/DO device will remain
inactive unless triggered. The duration of its response will last according to the set
Interval
.
