Integration with Honeywell's Pro-Watch®🔗

Eocortex is integrated with the Honeywell's Pro-Watch® comprehensive security platform. The integration makes it possible to receive and display the Honeywell's Pro-Watch® events, as well as to set up responses to such events.

The integration will work with versions 4.3.5 and later of Honeywell's Pro-Watch®.

For the integration to work, it is required to properly set up both Honeywell's Pro-Watch® and Eocortex.

Note

  • Integration is available in version Eocortex 2.8 and higher.

  • Integration was performed with Honeywell's Pro-Watch® version 4.3.5, will also be compatible with later versions of 4.X.

Honeywell's Pro-Watch® Setup

The information regarding the setup of Honeywell's Pro-Watch® for integration purposes is found in the restricted API setup and operation documentation supplied together with the Honeywell's Pro-Watch® distribution kit. The brief list of conditions, requirements and actions aimed at ensuring the successful integration of Honeywell's Pro-Watch® is shown below.

  • The availability of the activated Pro-Watch Database Transfer Utility and Pro-Watch Database Transfer Utility via API licenses.

  • The Pro-Watch API Service is activated and launched by the user with the access to Pro-Watch database.

  • The REST and SignalR ports (8734 and 8735 by default, correspondingly) of Pro-Watch servers are available.

  • There exists a Pro-Watch user for whom the Web password has been enabled in the user settings of the database. This password will be required to be indicated in the Eocortex settings.

  • The capability of transferring events between the Pro-Watch workstations is enabled.

Eocortex Setup

For setting up the response of the Eocortex server to the Honeywell's Pro-Watch® events, it is required to launch the Eocortex Configurator application, go to /config/svg/ico-tab-automation.png Automation tab, and select a camera in the list. Then, in the opened page, go to the Integrations tab and set up the connection to the Honeywell's Pro-Watch® server.
