VSI Pro offers alarm outputs and exception history with a time and date stamp. The EX function gives hard alarm outputs (contact closures). This alarm can trigger a VCR or switcher to home in to a camera watching a particular cash register, Quad or instruct a Speed Dome to go to a preset position when certain types of exceptional transactions are detected. The alarm outputs are accessed through the DB-9 connector which plugs into the rear of the VSI.

1.
Video out from the camera goes to video in on the VSI Pro. This camera typically watches the general area, including the register, counter, employee and customer.
2.

Most low end registers require the installation of an RS-232 board from the register vendor. Some registers utilise an RS-232 printer tap, while others with no RS-232 ability must be fitted with an additional interface module which converts the printer data to RS-232 for the VSI Pro.
