FERMAX INTERCOM INTEGRATION WITH ILEVIA

INTRODUCTION

Intercom systems are communication devices designed for instant, two-way audio exchange within specific areas. They typically consist of a master station and multiple sub-stations, allowing direct communication without the need for external networks. This guide show how to integrate a Fermax Intercom (Model: BLOCK PANEL 001-01 Fw ver.: V03.50S) with the Ilevia server.

Intercom configuration

Step 1:

Connect and access the web interface of the Fermax Intercom. Open the SIP settings:

1. Enter the Ilevia’s server IP address within the SIP SERVER parameter (Replace <Ilevia server IP> with the real IP of the Ilevia X1 server).

2. Enter the Ilevia’s server IP address on the Domain parameter (Replace <Ilevia server IP> with the real IP of the Ilevia X1 server).

3. Finally enter the STUN IP as follows: turn.ilevia.com.

Setting up the SIP address wiithin the Fermax intercom web interface.

Step 2:

Access the Advanced menu and enable the Quick dial and add the following URL: sip:<enter the SIP ID here>@<enter the server Ilevia IP> (where SIP ID must be replaced with the SIP ID created in within the web interface and the Ilevia server IP must replaced with the server X1 IP address).

Setting up the advanced settings within the Fermax intercom.

Ilevia Manager configuration

Step 1:

Open the Ilevia Manager configuration software, open the SIP section from within the component library, and add 2 SIP Client components.

Adding the SIP component within the Ilevia project.

Step 2:

Select one of the 2 SIP clients and in the right menu enter the following in the SIP address:

<SIP Address>@<Ilevia Server IP Address>.

Replace <SIP-Address> with the address (Room No.) you entered in step 1 of your web configuration and replace <Ilevia-server-IP-address> with your X1 server’s IP address. Finally, enter the password set in step 1 of the web configuration in SIP Password and select the user who will be able to receive calls in the “For Users” field.

Step 3:

Select the second SIP Client and in the right menu enter the following in SIP address:

<SIP-Address>@<Ilevia-server-IP-address>.

Replace <SIP-Address> with the address (VTO ID) you entered in step 2 of your web configuration and replace <dahua-intercom-IP-address> with the IP address of your Dahua intercom. Finally enter in SIP Password the password set in step 3 of the web configuration.

Step 4:

Finally Upload the project to the server.

Uploading the project into the server to test the SIP.

Webcam Integration (optional)

Add a new IP camera component to your project. After that it applies the RTSP URL in the component parameters as follows.

rtsp://<User1>:<User1 password>@<Intercom IP address>/mpeg/media.amp

Where <User1> must be replaced with the user’s username present within the intercom web interface (e.g. admin). <User1 password> must be replaced with the user’s real password (the one entered in step 3 of the web configuration) present within the web interface, finally replace <Intercom IP address> with the current IP address of your intercom within the local network.

Remember to connect the ip camera to your intercom by selecting the ip camera components in your intercom component settings (IP Camera => Your IP Camera)

Step 5:

Connect to the account in the Ilevia Control App. Please consult this guide to know how to Setup the new App.

Loading new account within the Ilevia control app.
