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 WebEndpoint

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 IP address and TCP/IP port.

Communication

Here's an example of how to configure Avigilon Control Center using WebEndpoint to send an alarm status to HSYCO.

Download the Avigilon WebEndpoint executable from the Avigilon download page

HSYCO Configuration

Add an AVIGILONAPI 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.
  • IP Port: TCP/IP port to use, leave blank to use default port 8443

High Availability

  • Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.

Options

  • username: Username of the AVIGILON ACC 7 client.
  • password: Password of the AVIGILON ACC 7 client.
  • userkey: User api key Avigilon developer page.
  • usernonce: User api nonce Avigilon developer page.
  • pollingtime: Time in milliseconds that hsyco will wait before the next alarm check, leave blank or set it o 0 to use default polling time 300

Datapoints

ID Value R/W Description
connection online R HSYCO connection socket is open
offline R HSYCO cannot create the connection socket
alarm 0/1 R get an alarm status (0 off, 1 on)
state ACTIVE, AUTOACKNOWLEDGED, ACKNOWLEDGED R get an alarm state

Some states

Value Description
ACTIVE This state indicates that the motion detection actually detected some movement
ACKNOWLEDGED This state indicates that the camera operator acknowledged the alarm
AUTOACKNOWLEDGED This state indicates that motion detection has stopped detecting the movement

Example

In this example HSYCO is using the following format to turn on a light when the alarm goes off:

#
io avigilonapi.newalarm.alarm = 1 : io dummy.light.1 = 1
*

Where "avigilonapi" is the name of the driver given in HSYCO and "newalarm" is the name of the alarm given in ACC
