Hello,

I want to create an list of alarme provide by an external system, and i want this alarm open it on the alarme liste on the smart client.

Do you have any idea how to do this ?

Maybe with curl or MIP integration ?

The built-in Alarm List in the Smart Client is not open for replacing the alarms with alarms from an external system.

I see two options:

  1. The alarms from the externals system can be feed into XProtect and in that way they will be present on the list amongst the alarms from XProtect itself.

  2. A new view item or a new workspace can be developed presenting the user with a list view filled with alarms and information from the external system.

Thanks for you awnser.

But how can you feed the alarms from the externals into XProtect ? do you have some documentation for this please ?

Ok thanks for your fast answer,

but i thinks this only work if one external system send one alarm, but in your case we have one external system than send many alarms. So i think we have to devellop your own view item or a new workspace.

Are you agree with this ?

Each alarm in the external system would have to be submitted one at a time, but this might still be feasible. If you can subscribe to the alarms in the external system this could be close to real-time.

I think getting the alarms into XProtect will do a very tight integration. I think the choice should be made with the user scenario in mind: Is it better that all alarms, external and XProtect, are intermixed into one list, or is it better that there clearly is another list for the external system?

Ok thank you for this information,

in our case, it’s possible to mix them into a single list, because even if we have many different alarms, we only have about 10 active each day.

I will try to make the simplest solution, I will come back to you if I have another question.

thanks again.

Hello Mister Andersen,

It is possible to add an HTTPS request directly into the event server ?

I would like to understand the background scenario.

What is it you would like to achieve?

Sending a request to the event server to do what?

You might have a good idea of functionality you would like to see happen and I haven’t caught on, please enlighten me.

We have a docking station for aautonomous drone that emits several alarms (opening in progress, drone takeoff, …) these alarms are sent by http request in our GUI and we also want them to appear in the alarm list of the milestone system
