One platform across your security estate

MILESTONE XPROTECTHIKVISIONDAHUAAXISINNER RANGEONVIF
THE PURPOSE, SIMPLY

Three jobs. One accountable system.

AlarmForgeX closes the gap between equipment being installed and somebody knowing it is healthy, detecting an event, and successfully reporting it.

01 / MONITOR

Know what is working

Continuously supervise cameras, recording servers, alarm controllers, UPS and network services across multiple sites.

  • Confirmed alarm and restore transitions
  • Trusted live, stale and offline states
  • Persistent history and diagnostics
02 / DETECT

Turn video AI into action

Convert supported camera analytics into armed security events with meaningful site, area, zone and evidence context.

  • Person, vehicle, intrusion and line crossing
  • Snapshots and short event clips
  • Alarm/restore logic and arming control
03 / REPORT

Prove it was delivered

Route qualified alarms and technical faults to professional receivers with queueing, retry and acknowledgement visibility.

  • CSV/IP and SIA DC-09
  • Account / Area / Zone allocation
  • Heartbeats and delivery audit trail
HOW THE SIGNAL MOVES

A clear path from equipment to receiver.

See how AlarmForgeX can sit alongside an existing IP security environment: local health and event checks on the client PC, followed by acknowledged reporting to the monitoring receiver.

Example AlarmForgeX monitoring architecture showing IP cameras and a network switch feeding Milestone XProtect recording servers and PowerShield Edge UPS units, with AlarmForgeX monitoring from a client PC and reporting to a T4000 via CSV over IP.

01
Connect the estate

Bring cameras, XProtect, alarm systems, UPS and other IP devices into one local workspace.

02
Observe and qualify

Check device health, power states and selected events through each configured integration or protocol.

03
Report with proof

Qualified alarms and technical faults are queued, sent and tracked through acknowledgement.

BUILT FROM FIELD REALITY

Designed for the person who has to support the site.

AlarmForgeX reduces the time spent jumping between recorder interfaces, camera tools, ping utilities, alarm logs and receiver portals. It creates one operational story that both the installer and monitoring team can understand.

MONITORING-STATION READY

Reporting that does not disappear into a black box.

See what was queued, which route was used, every retry, the receiver response and whether the event was acknowledged. AlarmForgeX keeps matching alarm and restore events together so monitoring operators receive a coherent incident.

  • Persistent delivery queue with controlled retries
  • Per-account heartbeat grouping
  • Standard functional Area / Zone allocation
  • Email, browser audio and MQTT options
  • Secure Offline Monitoring Mode with an approved local T4000 or gateway target

COMMON QUESTIONS

Know what you are installing.

AlarmForgeX complements existing security systems. It does not replace your VMS, alarm panel, MQTT broker or monitoring receiver.

Does AlarmForgeX move my security data to the cloud?

No. Monitoring and operational history run on the local Windows host. External reporting, email and MQTT occur only when configured.

Is it an NVR or monitoring-station receiver?

No. It supervises supported systems, captures short event evidence and routes operational events. It is not intended to replace a VMS/NVR or a professional receiver.

Can I use equipment not listed above?

Often, yes. Generic Ping, TCP, HTTP/S, RTSP, snapshot, SNMP and MQTT methods cover many IP devices, but do not imply product-specific compatibility.

What happens after a Windows restart?

AlarmForgeX uses a delayed, highest-privilege Windows startup task and v1.1.102 includes reboot-resilient evaluation and permanent-licence handling.
