Aritech Alarm Center
The Aritech Alarm Center sends alarms and events via the OH network receiver to the recorder system, which acknowledges the events and processes them in the form of alarm scenarios. All messages sent to the system by the Aritech Alarm Center must acknowledged by the software, otherwise they are sent again. The connection is unidirectional.
The systems communicate via TCP using the Security Communications Protocol – “SIA Format” Protocol - for alarm system communications, SIA DC-03-1990.01(R2003.10).
Configuring the Aritech Alarm Center
- Add a new Other hardware manufacturer by selecting "3rd Party Interface" and Type "Aritech Alarm Center".
- Choose which DeviceManager server should manage the Alarm Center. The Aritech System has to send its events to this server.
- Enter the OH Port for the events to be sent to from the OH Network Receiver via the logging appender. The port can be found in the file seetec.properties. This file can be found in the installation directory of the OH Network Receiver.
- Enter the Central ID. You will receive this ID from the installer of your Aritech Alarm Center.
