Information on intercoms which are fully integrated with Wildix system: www.wildix.com/integrations.

User Guides on Integration with some Intercoms are available on Doorphone integrations.

Video streaming before answer

Supported devices: Collaboration/ Vision/ SuperVision/ WP600AXX/ Android mobile app.

Note, that iOS mobile app is not supported. Video streaming before answer on x-bees and Collaboration 7 is also not supported. 


The functionality allows displaying an incoming video stream before answer on Collaboration/ Vision/ SuperVision/ WP600AXX/ Android mobile application.

To implement such behaviour, proceed with the following steps:

  • Go to WMS -> Dialplan -> Dialplan Rules
  • Select the Dialplan procedure used by the intercom and add a Custom application: 

Custom application -> SIPAddHeader(Camera:http://admin:admin@192.168.1.100/picture0.jpg)

where:

  • admin:admin – username and password, if needed (not all intercoms require authorization)
  • 192.168.1.100 – IP address of the intercom
  • /picture0.jpg – picture URL (only .*jpg format is supported at the moment)

More examples:

  • SIPAddHeader(Camera:http://www.testcam.local/camera/image.jpg)
  • SIPAddHeader(Camera:http://admin:admin1@10.100.4.44/snapshot/view0.jpg)
  • SIPAddHeader(Camera:http://admin:meinsm@10.100.4.113/record/current.jpg?sync=-99)
  • SIPAddHeader(Camera:https://admin:mypassword@10.100.4.111/api/camera/snapshot?width=1280&height=960&fps=15) (2N example)
  • SIPAddHeader(Camera:http://10.100.4.134/record/current.jpg) (Mobotix example)

Note: To check if a picture URL is correct, paste it in the address bar. For example: http://10.100.4.134/record/current.jpg


Note: This custom application can be used in two scenarios:

  • Call a doorphone and see the video stream 
  • See video stream from the doorphone before answer

In case you don’t know how to indicate the path correctly for your IP webcam / intercom, check this resource: LINK (mind that only HTTP connection and JPEG type are supported).


Note: Some intercoms may require additional configuration on their web interface. Check the online documentation for details: 2N Helios IP Integration, AphaTECH IP BOLD 65 Integration, Baudisch (Mod.33-1486) Integration, Mobotix T25 Integration.

Unlock button for door open function

Note: The functionality can be implemented only for Collaboration/ Vision/ SuperVision.

On x-bees and Collaboration 7 unlock button is not available, but DTMF can be used to unlock the door. 

To be able to unlock doors from the call management window, you can add an unlock button.

  • Go to WMS -> Dialplan -> Dialplan Rules
  • Select the Dialplan procedure used by the intercom and add a new Custom application: 

Custom application -> SIPAddHeader(Unlock-Button:*1234#)

where:

  • *1234# is a DTMF code

How the button looks like:
