If you are using a Streamvault appliance to implement an access control system, you can use the I/O card to connect hardware alarm inputs directly to the appliance, and then control its outputs using event-to-actions in Security Center.
I/O card specifications
The following specifications apply to Streamvault models that include the I/O card:
- 4 trigger outputs
- 8 alarm inputs
- RS-485 communications port
About connecting I/O inputs
If you order a Streamvault appliance with the I/O card, you can connect the input and output wires from hardware devices directly to the I/O card on the back of the appliance. The wires should be inserted using a small flat-head screwdriver to push in the tension clamps on the connector.
