simplycctv 0 Posted May 20, 2006 hello all, Need a little help here, As you all know nearly all DVR have Digital I/O outputs . I need to control a flood light from the output of the DVR. So therefore i need a ready made module that will read a digital signal and enable me to control a 240v flood light simply to turn it on/off Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rapid 0 Posted May 21, 2006 I think you mean DVR units come with analog outputs... .that is dry contact output terminals.....for example alarm output which can drive other equipment. As most of these outputs are low voltage and consumption, you'll have to interface a DPDT relay with this output so that it can drive your 230vac fixture. Should be able to find circuits on-line or local suppliers (The Source) where you can buy them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
