IQSIGHT BVMS - Triton ULTRA Integration

Full Integration Guide Here

Integrating Triton ULTRA into IQSIGHT BVMS involves a two-part setup: preparing the BVMS environment to receive data and configuring the Triton sensor to send it.

Phase 1: BVMS Server Preparation

Before the sensor can communicate with your VMS, the BVMS Server API must be active.

1. Install/Enable Server API:

   • New Installations: During the Central Server setup, ensure Server API is selected under the Management Server feature list.

   • Existing Installations: Re-run the BVMS installer on the Central Server, choose Modify, and select the Server API option.

   • DIVAR IP: No action is required, as the Server API is automatically included via the System Manager.

2. Verify Network Connectivity: Ensure TCP Port 5399 is open on the Management Server to allow incoming sensor data.

Phase 2: Configuration Client Setup

This phase prepares the "logical" response within BVMS.

1. Create Virtual Inputs:

   • Navigate to the Devices tab in the Configuration Client.

   • Add and name a Virtual Input (e.g., "Vape Sensor 1").

2. Associate Alarms:

   • In the Alarms tab, create a new alarm triggered by the Virtual Input.

   • Associate this alarm with a specific camera (e.g., the camera closest to the sensor's physical location).

3. Configure Text Data: Ensure the system is set to respond to textData from the sensor so that specific event types (e.g., "Cigarette") appear in the logbook.

Phase 3: Triton Sensor Configuration

Access the sensor's web interface (typically via the Triton Device Manager) to point it toward BVMS.

1. HTTP Settings:

   • Enable the HTTP feature.

   • Server URL: Use the format https://<BVMS_SERVER_IP>:5399/serverapi/virtualinputs/<input_number>/textData/.

   • Method: Select POST.

   • Content Type: Select application/json.

2. Authentication:

   • Auth Mode: Set to Basic Auth.

   • Auth Key/Value: Enter a BVMS Admin username and its corresponding password.

3. Data Payload:

   • Set Set String to On.

   • Enter the JSON payload. Example: {"externalAlarmId": "42", "data": ["Test","test"]}.

4. Assign Actions:

   • Go to Action Settings in the sensor menu.

   • For every event you want to track (Vape, Aggression, etc.), check the Set box under the HTTP column and click Save.

Phase 4: Testing & Monitoring

• Trigger a Test: Use the Test button in the Triton sensor’s Action Settings page.

• Verify in Operator Client: The alarm should appear in the Alarm List, displaying the textData from the sensor in real-time.

• Optional Dashboard: If you want a live dashboard, add the sensor's RTSP stream to BVMS via the Video Streaming Gateway (VSG).
