DB9 Connector Power Supply

The POWER pin of the DB9 connector is a 12V power supply to power up one or more cameras. This line is protected by an automatic fuse (1 A). According to the PCI specification, it is not recommended to consume more than 500 mA (at 12 V). The voltage on POWER pin can be configured to provide 5 V instead of 12 V. The voltage options are activated using two different ways.

Power Supply = +12V

This is the default factory setting.

Power Supply = +5V
