Barix IP devices will link an alarm system and the C-MOR video monitoring solution.

Barix Barionet IP control and monitoring device

Barix AG announced its latest in a string of successful integration partnerships with leading software and solutions providers in the security and surveillance market.

Barix has now partnered with za-internet GmbH, developer of the C-MOR remote video surveillance solution, to fully integrate Barix Barionet products into C-MOR as universal, IP based I/O interfaces.

At IFSEC (May 16-19, 2011, NEC, Birmingham, England, Hall 4, Stand G155), Barix is planning a unique demonstration that will exhibit how the Balingen Police Department in southern Germany will use Barix Barionet IP control and monitoring devices in its burglary prevention center showroom to trigger alarms in C-MOR solutions.

C-MOR, a well-known, affordable remote video surveillance solution is available as software or as an appliance, targeting residential and commercial security markets.  Popular commercial applications include surveillance in retail environments, horse stables, and gas stations.

The Barionet's versatile I/O establishes communication between C-MOR and external "things" systems such as lights, security systems or motion sensors.  Interfacing to sensors (motion sensors or a an alarm output of a security system) and actors such as lights, lock-down equipment and security system trigger inputs is fully supported. 

Barionet product family is developed for automation and monitoring applications as well as interfacing solutions


This functionality further allows C-MOR to serve as a versatile internet alarming upgrade for a traditional security system, as it can raise alarms over the internet to browser-capable mobile phones, supporting live video feeds of the site in alarm.The Barionet product family is specially developed for automation and monitoring applications as well as interfacing solutions in buildings, industry and IT systems.  Barionet devices provide an ideal link between hardware/hard-wired solutions and the IT world in an era of increased convergence.

In the case of the C-MOR integration, Barionet devices communicate with the surveillance solution via TCP/IP; and with sensors and actors via traditional hardware interfaces such as contact closures and serial ports.  Implementation with C-MOR is especially simple as the only tool needed is a standard web browser.

The Barionet 50 used in this application is a freely-programmable I/O device server with contact closure inputs, relay outputs and serial ports, so even highly specific and complex interface functions can be implemented.  No programming is required for standard applications, and the device supports the most common IP-based standard protocols such as SNMP, web/cgi, Modbus/TCP and ASCII based I/O protocols.
