Additional Equipment
One or two video cameras should be connected to the CVG-M. You must acquire the cameras you require; they are
not included in the CVG-M package. For information about camera compatibility and about connecting the cameras
to the unit, see Connecting Cameras, page 14, or consult your vendor.
In addition to the cameras, you may wish to connect some or all of the optional equipment listed below to the CVG-
M unit. For additional information about these items and the cables required to connect them, please refer to the
installation instructions for each type of device.
NOTE: This equipment is not included in the CVG-M package.
SIM card for the cellular network
Dry-contact sensor, toggle (on-off) switch to change the active outline (see Connecting Sensors, page 16), or
push-button switch to change the display in a connected CCTV monitor (see Connecting a Switch, page 25)
Note: A dry-contact sensor or switch can be connected directly to the Sensor connector on the CVG-M unit. If
you use either an ADAM module or an IA relay board, as described below, you can connect an additional 16
dry-contact sensors via the unit’s RS232/485 connector.
Note: If you connect a touchscreen monitor to the CVG-M, you cannot also connect an ADAM module or an
IA relay board.
ADAM Data Acquisition Module and ADAM isolated RS232->RS422/RS485 converter, for connecting up to
16 dry-contact sensors (see Connecting Sensors, page 16)
Intelligent Appliance IA-3126-2 relay board, for connecting up to 16 dry-contact sensors (see Connecting
Sensors and Activators Using an IA Relay Board, page 21) and 16 activators to the CVG-M unit
Dry-contact activator (an alarm or other device that is turned on or off in response to the activation of a sensor;
see Connecting an Activator, page 20)
Note: An activator can be connected directly to the CVG-M unit. If you use an IA relay board, as described
above, you can connect an additional 16 activators via the unit’s RS232/485 connector.
Note: If you connect a touchscreen monitor to the CVG-M, you cannot also connect an IA relay board. In this
case, you can only connect one activator to the unit.
Microphone (see Connecting a Microphone, page 22)
Speaker or headphones (the unit already contains a built-in speaker; see Connecting a Speaker or Headphones,
page 23)
CCTV monitor for closed-circuit video display (see Connecting a CCTV Monitor, page 23)
Insulated plastic container with two built-in fans in which the CVG-M unit can be placed (see Preventing
Overheating, page 8)
