Supporting Cameras with Analytics

Supporting Cameras with Analytics

When using cameras with supported edge-based analytics, a wired Digital Input trigger is not needed. The Bridge still requires power, internet service, and in most cases, an arming input from the alarm panel.  Using the alarm panel arming state allows the Bridge to ignore camera analytics when the alarm system is disarmed.  All configuration for camera analytics is done on the camera, or the manufactures recommended software.  Use the CHeKT Dealer Portal to program the Bridge to create alarm events and video events based on analytics from the camera.   

Alarm Communicator Configuration: A central station's CHeKT Signal Delivery setup is required if an integrator is installing the CHeKT hardware as a stand-alone alarm communicator or using video analytics to transmit alarm traffic through the CHEKT Bridge. All Systems need to be properly tested to ensure your Central Station is receiving alarm information and video.
