  4. LAN port - Ethernet 10/100 Base-T port provides an Ethernet connection.

    Orange LED - orange LED for Ethernet port. It indicates network traffic.
    Green LED - green LED for Ethernet port. It indicates network traffic. Blinks green when the system starts. Shows connection status (steady green light - connection established, blinking green - connection attempt).
  5. Modem slot - LTE modem slot can be installed in this slot. This modem must be ordered separately.
  6. CAN DEVICES - digital RJ12 port for connecting CAN sensors/extensions/devices on a CAN bus. Modules can be chained together.

    LED: CAN - green LED shows the CAN bus status.
    The LED blinks slowly - nothing is connected
    The LED blinks fast - configuration in progress
    The LED lights steadily - connected to CAN devices
  7. USB - Micro-USB port required for USB camera recording, USB flash for system logs and system recovery.
  8. Restart - the button restarts the device. Hold the button for 2 seconds and release, the system will restart.
  9. Activity - green LED shows the device system status.

    Device operating mode: blinks twice per second; successful software update completion: blinks four times per second.

    Error - red LED indicates errors and traffic.

    Device operating mode: if everything is normal, the LED is off; if not, there is a steady light.

    Software update mode: blinks twice per second;

    Alarm - the LED can be programmed from the user interface for alarm display.
  10. TEMPERATURE SENSOR - Accuracy +/- 1 °C.
  11. E1, E2 - LED status indicators for 12V 0.25A relay outputs.

    R1, R2 - LED status indicators for x2 NC/NO/COM relays.
    CAN - green LED shows the CAN bus status.
  12. DRY CONTACT INPUTS 1...16 - Digital inputs (Type IN).
  13. Expansion slot - Only one of the two expansions can be installed: "Modbus RTU extension" or "OSDP v2 reader extension". Must be ordered separately.
  14. Case grounding - Case grounding, M4 thread.

    Improves equipment immunity against conducted and radiated RF interference. Please contact a professional electrician before connecting.
  15. Battery expansion slot - Battery backup expansion can be installed in this slot. The expansion must be ordered separately.
  16. RESERVE - Reserve power input. 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz, fuse 2A, fuse 5x20mm, type C14.
  17. MAIN - Power input. 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz, fuse 2A, fuse 5x20mm, type C14.
  18. Relay 1, Relay 2 - NC/NO/COM power relay connections.

    The LED is ON (orange) - the relay is ON (initial state can be configured).
    The LED is OFF (orange) - the output is OFF (initial state can be configured).
  19. OUTPUTS 12V 0.25A - 12V 0.25A (for each output) connection outputs (electronic relay). LED indicators are located on the front panel.

    The LED is ON (orange) - the output is ON (initial state can be configured).
    The LED is OFF (orange) - the output is OFF (initial state can be configured).
  20. Factory reset - Reset settings to factory defaults.

    Hold the button for more than 5 seconds. The error LED begins to blink. This indicates the factory restore has started. Wait 20-60 seconds until the system restarts.
    The activity LED starts blinking as soon as the system restarts. The device can now be accessed.
  21. N - R - DIP switch used for various system modes.

    Normal mode: switch is toggled to the left ←. The switch should always be in this position.
    Device recovery: switch is toggled to the right →. Used to load the clean system image from an SD card.
  22. SD card - MicroSD card slot with eject. The card is required for data storage or system recovery.
