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
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.
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).
Ilevia Manager configuration
Open the configuration software Ilevia Manager. 1. Open the SIP tab from the Components library, 2. Add 1 SIP Group and 2 SIP Client.
Enter the parameters of the SIP Group. Here add the SIP address previously set up on the Fermax Intercom and the Ilevia’s IP address separated by a “@” sign as follows: <SIP-Address>@<Ilevia-server-IP-address>
Select the first SIP Client component. Add the SIP address with the right SIP ID, the SIP ID is a specific number of your choice. This first SIP Client component represents the Ilevia control app client that will receive the call once the bell is rang. Lastly Add the Admin tag, this will tell the server which user will receive the call once triggered.
Select the second SIP Client component. Add the SIP address with the right SIP ID previously set up on the Fermax intercom. This SIP client represents the Intercom.
Finally add the sip client within the SIP Group component’s SIP Client list.
Finally Upload the project to the server.
Intercom IP camera settings
Add a new IP camera component within the project. Then apply the RTSP URL to the component parameters as follows.
rtsp://<User1>:<User1 password>@<Intercom IP address>/mpeg/media.amp
Where <User1> must be replaced with the real User name of the first user created within the Doorbird web interface, password<User1 password> must be replaced with the real User1 password generated within the Doorbird web interface, finally <Intercom IP address> with the current Intercom IP address on the lan network.
Connect to the account in the Ilevia Control App. Please consult this guide to know how to Setup the new App.
Interface visualization
Click the button on the Intercom to make a call. If the configuration has been done correctly you will receive a notification if the app is closed or a calling interface will open where you can accept or refuse the call.
