Configuring Avigilon System Events in Gallagher
To monitor Avigilon system events in Gallagher, you must create three placeholder cameras to
receive event information from Avigilon. This allows you to monitor the health of the Avigilon
Control Center system in the Gallagher Command Centre. Avigilon system events can include
server errors, database issues and low storage availability.
1. In the Gallagher Command Centre, open the External Systems Master List Window.
2. Right-click the window and select New > DVR System Camera.
3. In the General tab, give the placeholder a name.
4. Select the Setup tab, and complete the following fields:
• DVR System: select the Avigilon server you want to receive system information
from.
• Identification: enter one of the following. Make sure the Identification is spelled
exactly as listed or the system events will not be received by the Gallagher
software.
• ACC Server Events - for Avigilon Control Center Server events.
• ACC Database Events - for video indexing, video metadata and configuration
data related events.
• ACC Storage Events - for network video recorder storage events.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat this procedure until you have a placeholder for each of the three event types.
Each of the events are mapped to an External Event Group ID in Gallagher. When an event
occurs, the Gallagher Command Centre will respond using the action plan assigned to the event.
To change the action plan, see Configuring Action Plans for Avigilon Events on page 14.
