Avigilon

Avigilon Control Center (ACC) 7 is a video management software that can be integrated in HSYCO with a TCP/IP connection. The current release of the I/O Server has been tested with the Avigilon Control Center 7.6.0.22

note

This driver supports only a single connection with an Avigilon Control Server. If you have multiple Avigilon Control Servers it is mandatory to add more I/O servers to HSYCO, one for each Avigilon Control Server. Every I/O server must use a different TCP/IP port.

Communication

Here's an example of how to configure Avigilon Control Center to get a message from HSYCO and trigger an action.

Select POS Trasanction in the Advanced configuration menu

Set the transaction source device to the IP address of HSYCO and TCP/IP port specified in the I/O Server declaration (e.g. 10001)

Edit the Transaction Source Data Format

Configure data format as follows

In this example HSYCO is using the following format:

#
 dummyalarm.z24.open=0
*

Where "dummyalarm.z24.open" is a datapoint, "0" its value

Now it is possible to setup Transaction Exceptions, for example to trigger a recording when a zone is alarmed.

The object URL could be used to show an HSYCO interface inside ACC7

HSYCO Configuration

Add an AVIGILON I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:

Communication

• IP Address: IP address of the AVIGILON ACC 7 server. Set to 0.0.0.0 to allow any remote IP address to connect.
• IP Port: TCP/IP port to use, leave blank to use default port 10001

High Availability

• Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.

Datapoints

ID	Value	R/W	Description
connection	online	R	HSYCO connection socket is open
	offline	R	HSYCO cannot create the connection socket
write	value	W	write the message <value> on the connection socket

You can send simple events, by writing a plain text message to the write datapoint, for example:

init : { 
   if (typeof String.prototype.startsWith != 'function') {
       String.prototype.startsWith = function (str){
       return this.indexOf(str) == 0;};
   }
}

function IOEvent(name, value) : {
   
    if (name.startsWith("dummyalarm.z")){
        var message = "#\n" + name + "=" + value + "\n*";
        ioSet("avi.write", message);
    }
}

This code writes on the Avigilon I/O server "avi" a message everytime a datapoint starting with "dummyalarm" change its value. The syntax of the message it the same described in the Communication section.

#
 dummyalarm.z24.open=0
*
