SiteManager
General
The basic settings of each device include the activation state (On/Off) as well as a name under which all alarms and warnings reported by this device are displayed. This should be chosen as uniquely descriptive as possible to be able to distinguish between devices.
Alarm Group
By selecting the parent alarm group, the device is integrated into the system hierarchy.
Alarms are signaled in the parent alarm group.
Connection
Connection monitoring enables alarming when the device is not reachable.
| Alarm Assignment | Selection of the alarm assignment |
| Output as Warning | Connection loss does not trigger an alarm and is only reported as a warning. |
External Sensors
SiteManager KSM-DR-02 only
Up to two external sensors can be connected.
In this area, external sensors connected to the digital inputs can be configured.
A configuration can be made for each external sensor that determines the functionality of the sensor. The configuration includes the following settings:
| Channel | Selection of the alarm assignment |
| Name | The designation used here is used in KentixONE to identify the external sensor, such as in alarm messages and log entries. |
| Alarm Group | Alarms triggered by an external sensor are signaled in the alarm group selected here. In the Detail View, the sensor is displayed in this alarm group. |
| Alarm when | Depending on the configuration selected here, the external sensor triggers an alarm when its state is open or closed. |
| Type | The external sensor can be used in various ways in KentixONE. Depending on the selected type, the sensor can be used in advanced functions and may be displayed differently in the Detail View. |
| Standard The sensor can be used normally and does not trigger any special behavior. | |
| Door Contact The sensor is used to monitor the open/closed state of a door. This type is recommended when using a door/magnetic/reed contact. | |
| Leakage The sensor is used for leakage detection. This type is recommended when using a Kentix LeakageSensor. | |
| Presence/Motion The sensor is used to detect people in an area. This type is recommended when, for example, a PIR motion sensor is connected. The external sensor can now be used in an mantrap. | |
| Ignore when arming | When an external sensor has triggered an alarm, its parent group normally cannot be armed (see Interlocking). |
| Alarm delay | In some application scenarios, it can be helpful not to signal an alarm immediately. This delay can be set here for the external sensor. |
| Description open/closed | Depending on the state of the external sensor, a different description can be displayed in the Detail View |
Alarm Assignment
| Name | API Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Off | off | For this input, alarming is disabled and the state/measured value is not updated. |
| Armed-Active | armed-active | When the parent alarm group is armed, alarms can be triggered. The state/measured value of the input is updated. |
| Always-Active | always-active | Alarms can be triggered regardless of the switching status of the alarm group. The state/measured value of the input is updated. |
| Fire | fire | Alarms can always be triggered. These are reported as fire alarms. |
| Sabotage | sabotage | Alarms can always be triggered. These are reported as sabotage/intrusion alarms. |
| System Message | system | Alarms can always be triggered. These are reported as system messages. |
| Display Only | display-only | No alarm evaluation takes place. The state/measured value continues to be updated. |
| Arm-Disarm | arm-disarm | The assigned alarm group can be armed and disarmed via this input. |
| Arm | arm | The assigned alarm group can only be armed via this input. |
| Disarm | disarm | The assigned alarm group can only be disarmed via this input. |
Switching Outputs
SiteManager KSM-DR-02 only
Up to four external devices can be connected via switching output. For switching outputs, the meaning of the alarm assignment differs from other configuration options, in this case it specifies the function of the switching output or which alarms should trigger the output to switch.
A configuration can be made for each switching output that determines the functionality of the output. The configuration includes the following settings:
| Name | The designation used here is used in KentixONE to identify the switching output, such as in alarm messages and log entries. |
| Alarm Group | The alarm group determines the function of the output for switching outputs or which alarms should trigger the output to switch. |
| Switching Time | Determines the duration for which the switching output remains activated. Available options: Off, 1 second, 3 seconds, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, Permanent. When the switching output is triggered, it remains switched for the set time. |
Alarm Assignment
The alarm assignment determines the specific function of the switching output:
| Name | API Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Armed-Active | armed-active | When an armed-active alarm occurs in the assigned alarm group, the output is switched to high level for the set switching time. An acknowledgment also causes the output to return to low level prematurely. |
| Always-Active | always-active | When an always-active alarm occurs in the assigned alarm group, the output is switched to high level for the set switching time. An acknowledgment also causes the output to return to low level prematurely. |
| Fire | fire | When a fire alarm occurs in the assigned alarm group, the output is switched to high level for the set switching time. An acknowledgment also causes the output to return to low level prematurely. |
| Sabotage | sabotage | When a sabotage alarm occurs in the assigned alarm group, the output is switched to high level for the set switching time. An acknowledgment also causes the output to return to low level prematurely. |
| System Message | system | Alarms can always be triggered. These are reported as system messages. |
| Only for external devices and switching outputs | ||
| Collective Alarm (Group) | collected-alarm | Output is switched to high level as long as an alarm is pending in the parent alarm group. Acknowledgments have no effect. |
| Manual | manually | Currently without function |
| Signal Open Doors | signal-open-doors | Currently without function |
| Collective Alarm Armed-Active (Group) | collected-alarm-armed-active | Output is switched to high level as long as an armed-active alarm is pending in the parent alarm group. |
| Collective Alarm Always-Active (Group) | collected-alarm-always-active | Output is switched to high level as long as an always-active alarm is pending in the parent alarm group. |
| Collective Alarm Fire (Group) | collected-alarm-fire | Output is switched to high level as long as a fire alarm is pending in the parent alarm group. |
| Collective Alarm Sabotage (Group) | collected-alarm-sabotage | Output is switched to high level as long as a sabotage alarm is pending in the parent alarm group. |
Webhooks
Webhooks in KentixONE provide the ability to send an HTTP request to an external server when an event occurs. System-wide Webhooks can be created for this purpose. Such a webhook can be assigned to any number of events.
Webhooks also provide the possibility to implement functions via the KentixONE SmartAPI that are not available through the standard configuration.
For example, when a fire alarm occurs, the switching outputs of an AccessManager could be activated to unlock the connected motor locks.
Events
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| All Alarms | The webhook is sent for every alarm that occurs. |
| Armed-Active Alarms | When an armed-active alarm occurs, the webhook is sent. |
| Always-Active Alarms | When an always-active alarm occurs, the webhook is sent. |
| Fire Alarms | When a fire alarm occurs, the webhook is sent. |
| Sabotage Alarms | When a sabotage alarm occurs, the webhook is sent. |
| System Messages | When a system message is triggered, the webhook is sent. |
| Before Arming | The webhook is sent when an alarm group is to be armed.(1) |
| After Arming | The webhook is sent after an alarm group has been armed. |
| Before Disarming | The webhook is sent when an alarm group is to be disarmed.(1) |
| After Disarming | The webhook is sent after an alarm group has been disarmed. |
| Change of Switching Status (Arming or Disarming) | When the alarm group is switched, the webhook is sent. |
| Cyclical (5 Min, 10 Min, 15 Min, 30 Min) | The webhook is sent cyclically. |
(1) The webhook is sent when a switching command is triggered either by a user or by automatic arming. Example: (Dis-)Arming command by user → Webhook is sent → (Dis-)Arming is executed
Test Functions
Here, the physical functions of the device can be manually controlled to test them.
