Hello all,
Long(ish) time Hik user, first time forum poster.
I'm connecting a Hik DS-2CD2346 to an analog alarm panel, to replace a now defunct telephone dialler. Plan being, alarm trigger -> Alarm input on camera, to notification via hikconnect.
I have the option of a 3 way NC-C-NO relay, or a 12V output when the alarm is live (for sounders).
At the moment, with this connected up, both the 12V and to the relay, I'm getting an alarm notification via hikconnect once per minute. I'm measuring 12V across the terminals when alarm is active, and seeing 1v` when it's inactive.
Would anybody have any suggestions as to what may be going on? I'm thinking the 1V floating might be causing the camera to 'see' an active alarm when it's not there?
