Virtual I/O is a feature for activating scripts on station events.

The scripts mentioned in this article can be downloaded under the Stations and Devices chapter.

As from version 4.11.3.1 for Pulse and version 5.1.3.0 for IC-EDGE Virtual I/Os are by default disabled. To enable, enter in the web browser the url "http://<IP Address>/goform/zForm_webcall", and check the flag Enable Web Call and Relay

Lua scripts for version 4.2.x.x

Door Opening - Operating a relay located in safe area

Example of using Vitual IO to control the relay of another unit

Due to security requirements it is sometimes not allowed to operate the door lock from the relay in the Turbine station at the door.

Instead of operating the relay in the door station, one can use the "Virtual I/O" feature to control the relay of a remote I/O unit (e.g. TKIS-2 unit) which is located in a secure area.

The script RelayTimer_v1.lua can be used for this prupose. The script let you pulse a relay of a remote unit for a set time.

Download and unzip the script
Select SIP Configuration > Script Upload, and click Browse to upload the script to the station

Upload the script to the station

The RelayTimer_v1.lua script requires 4 parameters:

lua RelayTimer_v1.lua <username> <password> <Station IP address> <Timer>

- <username> is by default admin

- <password> is by default alphaadmin

- <Station IP address> is the IP address in dot notation

- <Timer> is the relay pulse time in seconds

Configure the script with the required parameters. Select SIP Configuration > Script Configuration

When this script is triggered, the relay of station 10.5.101.149 will be pulsed for 3 seconds

Finally you need to define which event should trigger the script. Select SIP Configuration > Script Events:

When pressing digit "5", the script is triggered

Other scripts for Relay operation

There are three different scripts for relay control.

RelayTimer_v1.lua: Pulse the relay for a set time. The required parameters are described earlier in this article.
RelayOn_v1.lua: Turn relay ON
RelayOff_v1.lua: Turn relay OFF

The scripts can control the relay both in INCA stations and in Turbine stations.

Both the RelayOn_v1.lua and the RelayOff_v1.lua scripts require 3 parameters:

lua RelayOn_v1.lua <username> <password> <Station IP address>

- <username> is by default admin

- <password> is by default alphaadmin

- <Station IP address> is the IP address in dot notation

Lua scripts for version 4.7 and newer

OutputTimer_v47

Parameters:

Turbine station username
Turbine station password
IP address for target Turbine station
Valid inputs are relay1-2 or output 1-6
Timer for relay ON in seconds

ActivateOutput_v47

Parameters:

Turbine station username
Turbine station password
Valid inputs are relay1-2 or output 1-6
IP address for target Turbine station

DeactivateOutput_v47

Parameters:

Turbine station username
Turbine station password
Valid inputs are relay1-2 or output 1-6
IP address for target Turbine station

CallHangup

Parameters:

Turbine station username
Turbine station password
IP address for target Turbine station

TruPortal Integration

By using Virtual I/O the Pulse system trigger a script that can control the door lock in a TruPortal system.

Upload the script

Script configuration
TruPortal script requires 4 parameters:

username
password
TruPortal device IP address
Door number to activate

Script Event assignement
After a script slot has been created the user can choose which event(s) which will start the script.

Milestone Integration

By using Virtual I/O the Pulse system trigger a script that can control the Milestone Video Management System. In this example we want to activate a camera when the Turbine station calls the reception. The camera should switch off when the conversation ends.

Upload the script

Script configuration
Milestone script requires 3 parameters:

Milestone server IP address
TCP port number
"Text" to send (example "Cam105")

Send command to switch to camera for station 105

A second slot is needed to deactivate the camera. Same parameters with text changed to "CamOff".

Milestone server IP address
TCP port number
"Text" to send (example "CamOff")

Send command to deactivate camera for station 105

Script Event assignement
After a script slot has been created the user can choose which events which will start the script.

+The script '''RelayTimer_v1.lua''' can be used for this prupose. The script let you pulse a relay of a remote unit for a set time.
-The scripts mentioned in this article can be [[Downloads|downloaded here]].
-The use of scripts contains three steps:
+*[[Downloads#Virtual_I.2FO_-_Sample_scripts|Download]] and unzip the script
-# First the user need to upload a script to the station. It is possible to download scripts by clicking on the name. Scripts are kept during upgrade. The uploaded scripts should clearly state in the start of the file which parameters that are needed .
+* Select '''SIP Configuration''' > '''Script Upload''', and click '''Browse''' to upload the script to the station
-# The script needs to be configured with some custom parameters and assigned to a script slot. The number of parameters and their content varies from script to script.
-#* Assign a logical name to the script
-#* Write which script to activate and add parameters (note that shell scripts don't need to be uploaded, it is possible to write the script direclty inside the text field).
-#*: If it is a '''lua''' script then the syntax is:
-#*:: lua <scriptname> <parameter1> <parameter2> <parameter3> ...
-#*: '''Shell''' scripts follow the same syntax, but starts with "sh":
-#*:: sh <scriptname> <parameter1> <parameter2> <parameter3> ...
-# Finally the execution of a script has to be assigned to a station event. The same script can be assigned to multiple events.
