Overview
The goal of this integration is to receive alarms sent FROM YourSix cloud-hosted video platform into Manitou so that they can be handled by an operator. The operator would be able to click on a URL link that was sent with the alarm and view the video feed in the YourSix web portal.
Alarm Path
The alarm will propagate as follows:
- A new alarm will be sent from YourSix via HTML POST to a web-server running the WebHookPost application
- A signal file will be created on the server hard-drive
- Media Gateway will read the signal file and process it
- A new alarm will be created and sent to the FEP via a BOLDXML receiver
- The FEP will send the signal to the Signal Handler via the Marshaller
- The Signal Handler will process this and apply any programming needed once it finds the account
- The alarm will be written into the database
An example of the Raw Data Log:
Handling the Alarm
Handling the alarm should auto-launch a web page taking you to the YourSix portal. The event video clip can be watched as well as live video. It is also possible in the portal to view other cameras on the site.
YourSix uses a session token that is time limited to 3 days currently.
We display the area and zone the alarm comes from as well as the reason for the alarm which is listed in the Point ID.
The device description coming from YourSix is not used as the zone description but is shown in the PointId. If a corresponding zone is created on the account and given a description it will be displayed.
