The ultimate monitoring system solution!
The securityProbe-X20 is the next generation dry contact
device with an advanced 20 dry contact inputs. It comes in
a 1U rackmount box. The securityProbe-X20 has a Linux
Operating System with 128 Megabytes of Flash memory
and 64 Megabytes of SDRAM. It is TCP/IP compliant and
runs lighttpd web server including https (SSL), Bash, Perl,
vi, Telnet, PHP, Email and Nagios. The securityProbe-X20
has an easy-to-use web-based user interface for sensor
configuration, data collection and extensive graphing.
Complete SNMP functions such as SNMP v3 encryption
are supported. The web-based interface is written in PHP
allowing end-user changes such as language translation.
The securityProbe-X20 has a battery backed time of day
clock for accurate record keeping.
Many different types of equipment
and devices use dry contact outputs
to send alarm signals to remote
panels, remote monitoring systems,
and building management systems.
Communicating the status of these
dry contact systems is important
in a complex Enterprise network,
or automation industry to protect
the mission critical installations
of expensive equipment.
Architecture
At the core of the securityProbe-X20
is the securityProbe, which is
then married with the 20 dry contact
system. This offers support for
remote monitoring and management
of various external devices. This
integrated system enables connection
and monitoring of devices like
HVAC systems, Security Equipment,
UPS, Generators, Industrial Equipment
etc. The securityProbe-X20 embedded
web server makes the addition
of these devices easy.
The securityProbe-X20 comes with
8 full autoSense RJ-45 ports for
connecting any of our intelligent
sensors. An additional 20, 2 wire
dry contact ports are provided
giving a total of up to 28 dry
contact ports. The specially designed
2 wire dry contact ports are easy
to use and allow you to make your
own dry contact cables quickly
and easily.
Embedded Linux System
The securityProbe-X20 is based on a 32-bit Xscale PXA270, 312 MHz processor.
It includes 64 Megabytes of SDRAM and 128 Megabytes of nonvolatile flash memory,
along with 10/100 Mbps Ethernet and two serial ports.
With a real Linux kernel running on the system,
the securityProbe-X20 is able to embed many applications such as lighttpd web server,
including encrypted https web pages, Bash, Perl, vi Telnet, PHP, Email, and Nagios.
4 Camera Features
Capable of connecting up to 4 external cameras, the securityProbe supports
a wide range of analog cameras: such as existing security cameras, sophisticated night
vision, or low cost CCTV cameras. The securityProbe can display pictures in several
sizes, up to 640x480 pixels. It is capable of displaying pictures from 4 cameras simultaneously.
Note: all cameras must use the same Video Broadcast Standard - PAL or NTSC

Video Conferencing and Sensor Graphing
Video conferencing is activated by connecting external camera to securityProbe-X20 for facilitating communication.
The speaker and microphone are integrated securityProbe-X20 hardware. A regular Open H.323 protocol is used,
with many different audio and video codecs supported (such as G.711-uLaw-64k, RFC2190 H.263-CIF, and H.261-CIF).
The securityProbe-X20 integrates and displays graphs,
plotted by RRD Tool into its web-based user interface,
with Apache running as the regular and secured web server.
The individual graph (day, week, month, and year) for each sensor type can be customized,
simply by modifying the script template used to generate a particular graph.

Intelligent Sensor and Dry contact Integration
The securityProbe-X20 works with
every intelligent sensor in the
AKCP family. You can connect up
to 8 of our autoSense sensors
in any combination to monitor
temperature, humidity, water leakage
and airflow including long term
graphing, security, detection
of AC power line voltage, measurement
of Digital Voltmeter, control relays,
and many more such uses. The AKCP
range of sensors also includes
an integrated data collection
and graphing package that is especially
useful in spotting trends and
providing information for analysis.
The new feature in securityProbe-X20
is, the integration with a single
chip relative humidity and temperature
multi sensor module comprising
a calibrated digital output. The
sensor includes a capacitive polymer
sensing element for relative humidity
and a bandgap temperature sensor.
Both are seamlessly coupled to
a 14bit analog to digital converter
and a serial interface circuit
on the same chip. This results
in superior signal quality, a
fast response time and insensitivity
to external disturbances (EMC).
By having both temperature &
humidity sensors in a single sensor,
can be up to 1,000 feet,
the securityProbe-X20 can have
up to a maximum of 8 temperature
& 8 humidity sensors. This
extends the capability of the
securityProbe-X20 to maximum of
16 sensing parameters.
Sensor Notification Wizard
When an event occurs, the securityProbe-X20 can send SNMP traps, email,
SMS, MMS, make a telephone call, and make audio alert.
These alert messages are customizable and can include a picture of the event.
Besides notification alerts, events information including pictures are stored in a nonvolatile flash memory.
The number of pictures to take is customizable, for each camera,
up to 2 pre-event, and 16 post-event pictures.
Interval between each picture also can be customized.
The timestamp is displayed below each image.
The securityProbe-X20 has a battery backed time of day clock to facilitate accurate record keeping.

This illustrates 4 pictures from each camera at the total of 16 pictures
from all 4 cameras under one event |
False Message Filter
In order to prevent false alarms, the securityProbe-X20 provides an extensive filtering of events.
You can limit events based on the time of day or the day of the week.
This is especially useful with the sensor like the motion detector,
when you may want to process an event only when the business is closed.
Automatically Shutdown your Equipment in an Emergency
AKCP's Linux devices will automatically send a shutdown message to your Linux or Windows based
servers - so if there is a power outage, for example, you can rest assured that your servers
will be safely and automatically shut down before your UPS runs out.
Connect up to 4 external analogue cameras
The securityProbe-X20 can display pictures from four
cameras simultaneously in several sizes, up to 640x480
pixels resolution.
Analogue cameras are the kind used in professional
surveillance and CCTV monitoring systems. Built-in
pan-tilt controller interface allows complete control of pan
and tilt cameras using the industry standard Pelco-D bus.
Video Conferencing
Video conferencing is activated by connecting an external
camera to the securityProbe-X20. The securityProbe-X20
has an integrated speaker and microphone for
communication.
Above demonstrates 4 different pictures displayed under simultaneous mode from all 4 camera channels
enabled as V1, V2, V3 and V4 under AKCP's integrated Javascript mode; pictures are updated every 5 seconds
on all 4 camera channels simultaneously. Under scan mode, a picture from each camera is, in turn,
shown on the web interface as the current picture is displayed, and then replaced by the picture from the next camera.
For more streaming video picture, ActiveX and JavaApplet are alternatives:
each picture from each camera channel is updated variously in accordance with the number of cameras enabled.
For one camera channel enabled, the maximum rate is 30 fps at 320x240 pixels under fast network.
Thus, the frame rate depends on the number of enabled camera channels,
image size (320x240 or 640x480pixels), and network speed option (slow or fast).
There is one input and one output for audio.
The input of audio is a Line-In signal; thus, if you would like to connect a microphone,
it should be amplified before connected to the rear panel connector.
The connector for both input and output is a 3.5mm stereo jack.
However, the software only supports for mono signal.
The output signal is 5Vp-p. The sampling frequency for audio is 8 kHz.
