cjmagm 0 Posted January 27, 2011 Hello all, Here is what I got and what I am looking for. Currently have an Axis Q1755 that is detecting fog through the motion detection function and turning on Output at camera and firing a solid state relay that then sends signal to a Banner Wireless I/O Gateway and then to the Wireless I/O node and then to our PLC for monitoring. I am looking for a device that will eliminate the wireless I/O. So I am looking for something that I can hook up to my network at my plant and map it to the specified camera and fire outputs on it when the cameras output is turned on through the motion event. Any Ideas, I was told by our Axis rep that Axis made one but after I got it and tried it out I found that it would only work remotely with audio detection and I dont need that.

thewireguys 3 Posted January 28, 2011 The axis I/O will do what you want. Are you using VMS to record the camera? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjmagm 0 Posted January 28, 2011 I am using Milestone Enterprise, I tried simulating a motion output on a camera at my desk and could not get the Axis IO module to respond to it. I know I was hooked up to it because I was looking at the camera through IO module. Maybe I had something setup wrong, I dont have to use script do I to get it to work? I am referring to the P8221, that is the only one I could find. Thanks Craig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewireguys 3 Posted January 28, 2011 I don't know Milestone too well but does it have any rules? When motion on camera, Trigger output on I/O. I know Exacq and Avigilon can do this. Another option is to use http commands. You can send a http trigger from one Axis camera to another. Example 2: Activate port 1. (Only valid if port 1 is configured as output.) http://myserver/axis-cgi/io/port.cgi?action=1:/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cglaeser 0 Posted January 28, 2011 CAI makes a device called Webcontrol. http://www.redhillnetworks.com/products/webcontrol/index.html At $35 they are so cheap I purchased one about a year ago but have not yet played with it. It has 8 digital inputs, 8 digital outputs, and a few analog inputs. It has a web browser interface and supports several protocols including SMTP. Time permitting, I look forward to testing it.

That's pretty cool. These guys also make web control stuff: http://www.iobridge.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjmagm 0 Posted January 29, 2011 Milestone cant do that yet but they are working with their analytics server to try and get this done through a third party analytic. As for the http commands I am not an IT guy so that would be a stretch for me to perform and not worry about screwing something up. The webcontrol module sounds interesting as it can monitor the status of IO from a device on the network and if I am thinking correctly, you could then in turn energize one of its 5v logic outputs. Not sure what our IT department would think of me getting this without them looking it over though but we'll see. Thanks for the advice, I am going to stick with the wireless IO until I get approval to try some other items. Thanks craig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
