The AXIS P7701 Video Decoder provides a simple monitoring solution by enabling analog or digital monitors/projectors to connect to and display live video from Axis network cameras and video encoders.

The HSYCO’s AXISDEC I/O Server not only controls the decoder’s sources selection, but is also able to generate dynamic MJPEG streams that are compatible with this decoder, extending it to display camera grids, non AXIS cameras, and even generic text or images with overlays.

Thanks to these features, you could easily use this decoder as a cost-effective, small, low-power and extremely reliable display driver for basic, customized digital signage applications.

Axis P7701 Configuration

Source Selection Control

To enable the decoder’s source selection from HSYCO, you have to simply enable the “receive alarm” function:

Configure HSYCO as a video source

In order to be able to stream video from HSYCO to the P7701 decoder, HSYCO will present itself just like a standard AXIS camera. Just configure the HSYCO server as an ordinary video source:

Enter the HSYCO Server’s IP address and HTTP port number, select HTTP as the “Transport method”, and enter “hsyco” in the user name field. The password field is not used; HSYCO will only accept connections from encoders that are registered as I/O servers in hsyco.ini, and having an IP address in the trustedNet range.
