You would need to provide that actual detector for the substance you want to detect. Then an input device would need to connect the sensor into Genetec. We use HID products and they have a input module V200 that has 16 supervised inputs. I believe these are all dry contact inputs so a simple normally open or closed will work. Once the V200 is installed as an entity, you can send emails or on screen notifications to computer work stations that are monitoring the system. But is this all you want Genetec to do? Any cameras or door control? The V200 is normally used with a Cloud Link. The Cloud Link supports door controllers and is a self contained microcomputer that communicates with the main Genetec directory server. But if all you want to do is monitor gas, oil, water, etc., the Genetec software is an extreme overkill.

Leak detection? Like in a memory leak or water leak?

I've been certified with Genetec video and access control for several years now and think you made the right decision. I always deal direct with tech support and usually the wait time is fairly short. Or they will call you back instead of sitting on hold. Tech support generally will want to remote into the system and they normally have a solution fairly quickly. Don't be discouraged by the initial call center. Once you get certified and an ID number, calling for technical support is a different environment. The software can be overwhelming at first. There is a lot of flexibility and that means lots of modules to sort through. The video side is very robust, mostly simple and seldom causes any issues. The door access side does have it quirks but that is mainly due to third party vendors of door controllers not playing nice at times. I never know how complicated unlocking a door could be!

Check out most Axis brand camera models and their free Camera Companion software.

Genetec Cameras can be viewed on Native client but...

Genetec, what version? How are you trying to view? Web page or android app? If using the app, do you have ports 8100 and 8101 open? -
AXIS A1001 remote access

Just port 80. Sounds like something in your router is not cooperating. For the fun of it, what happens if you open the DMZ to the 1001? -
Modifying the pan function for a bullet camera

Modifying the pan function for a bullet camera
prairietech replied to jusolson's topic in General Access Control Discussion
You mention wireless APs. Would the IP camera also be wireless? Could the camera sled be self contained with a battery to power the camera? Probably not if this is a long term application. I think you would be better off using another motor to pull the camera. Not sure if a built in panning wheel would be strong enough to pull the camera along the rail. Is this outdoors? Moisture could present a slippage issue using a friction wheel. -
Modifying the pan function for a bullet camera

I found several hits using the google search of video camera rail system diy Is this what you had in mind? -
SET 1, 99, enter will program the current position as Preset 1 But the SET command is a button on the joystick control box. Then you can go into the on screen PTZ Setup menu and set the camera to move to Preset 1 after a period of inactivity. The period of inactivity is also set from the PTZ Setup menu. This effectively sets Preset 1 as Home since the camera will return to this position after the user stops moving the camera to other positions. It should also go to this position after initial power up. But to get into the on screen menu you use the joystick control box to send: OFF-90-ENTER then ON-46-ENTER to bring up the on screen menu. If you figure out how to do all of this without using the Philips/Bosch joystick controller, be sure to let us know.
-
Yes but you will have to send the 485 commands using the Philips/Bosch communications protocol (Bi-phase). Pelco protocol is available but I think it has to be enabled first. The only way to enable it is via the Philips/Bosch protocol.
-
I've always used a joystick to do the programming. A dvr might work but it would have to be connected via the serial port using the correct Bosch protocol to bring up the menu and commands which will appear on the ptz cameras video screen.

I believe Preset 1 can become the Home position if you set it as the preset to go to after a period of inactivity. SET 1, 99, enter will program the current position as Preset 1 Then you can go into the PTZ Setup menu and set the camera to move to Preset 1 after a period of inactivity. The period of inactivity is also set from the PTZ Setup menu.

Cannot communicate PELCO-D PTZ Bosch Serie 600 Analog CAM
prairietech replied to bentech's topic in Video Transmission/Control Devices
I'm in the USA. You could probably pop the clear dome off and move it the the location you want. However on the next power cycle, the camera will move and return to the Home position it was previously programmed to move to.
