General Information

Video surveillance control panels can be connected to Axxon Next in two ways:

  1. Connecting a panel via the Windows driver as an HID USB device. This method makes the panel immediately available for specifying hotkeys (see Assigning hot keys). 

    Attention!

    In HID mode, some control panel buttons may not work in Axxon Next.

  2. Connecting a panel via the Axxon Next driver. Using this method, the panel is added to the system similarly to that of IP devices (see Adding and removing IP devices). 

    Attention!

    To connect a control panel in this way, you need the Axxon Next software to be installed in the Server and Client configuration. It's not possible to operate a board as a remote client.

The following control panels are supported in the current version of Axxon Next:


Windows driver Axxon Next driver
Axis T8310 (T8311, T8312, T8313)++
PELCO KBD5000++
Videotec DCZ++
Hikvision DS-1005KI++
Hikvision DS-1100KI-+
Hikvision DS-1600KI-+

Axis T8310 specific configuration features

Since the Axxon Next version 4.3.4 and Driver Pack version 3.61, you can use the Axis T8310 control board with remote Clients through the driver embedded into the Axxon Next software. The panel is not added to the system as an IP device, and is immediately available for assigning hotkeys.
