Maxpro Driver

The MAXPRO® VMS (Video Management System) controls multiple sources of video subsystems to collect, manage and present video in a clear and concise manner. Niagara ’s Maxpro driver makes the Maxpro features available to Niagara Framework developers and integrators.

The Maxpro driver supports these features:

Automatic discovery of cameras
NVR (Network Video Recorder) and camera health Status
PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom) operation including control and go-to presets
Live and recorded video streams
H.264 Codec
RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) and HPS (Honeywell Progressive Streaming)
RTSP streaming has been tested with Honeywell’s HDZMD series camera.
Read camera events and alarms
Forward, rewind, fast forward, and fast rewind
1 /2, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 & 16 replay speeds
Custom RTSP URL for RTSP streaming
HTML5 MaxPro Video Streaming is possible without Java dependencies in the browser (as of Niagara 4.12)
View HTML5 video streams that are connected to alarms directly from the Niagara alarm console and add video links to your system graphics (as of Niagara 4.12)
Access HTML5 streams from your mobile devices and remotely assess situations in facilities (as of Niagara 4.12)

The Maxpro driver does not support Fox streaming.

The Maxpro driver defaults to secure TLS communication with the exception of its RTSP protocol, which, in the Niagara 4.9 release does not support TLS. If your installation requires a connection to a camera or NVR that does not support TLS, you should replace the device with one that does support secure communication. If you must use a device that is not secure, change Use Tls (Network component Property Sheet) to false and change the Address, Port (Network and NVR Property Sheets) from 443 to 80.

CAUTION: Be aware that these changes relax the driver's security settings, compromising security to connect to a device that does not support secure communication. This opens your network to the potential of being hacked.
