4 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited Specifications  This add-on should be installed on the OnGuard server Similar to other OnGuard services, the “LS_SkyPoint.AlarmService” can be installed on other servers to distribute the workload on larger systems  The minimum hardware requirements are the same for the add-on as they are for OnGuard: Pentium IV Processor 1 GB RAM DVD-ROM USB Port 1024x768 color display 6 GB of available space CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 4 Note: If the add-on is not installed on the same computer that has the DataConduIT service running, you must configure DataConduIT for use from a remote computer. For more information, refer to the DataConduIT User Guide.

5 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited Prerequisites  Several prerequisites are required to support this integration OnGuard 2009 (6.3.249) Hot Fix 1 or later.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 or later A DataConduIT connection (properly installed) A Windows account that has permission to connect to DataConduIT to run the integration service The following services must be running: LS DataConduIT service LS Linkage Server service LS Application Server service CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 5

6 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited Configuration  Each component of the integration must be properly configured SkyPoint Alarm Integration add-on application System Administration in OnGuard system NetDVMS Administrator in SkyPoint system CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 6

7 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited Users and User Permissions  Users and user permissions are managed separately from within the OnGuard and SkyPoint systems The user that handles the configuration of the alarms in System Administration must have permission in the OnGuard system to create custom alarms The user that configures/monitors the actions to be performed in SkyPoint when the alarms are received will have to have those permissions set in SkyPoint CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 7

8 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited User Access  You can simplify things by running the same user for: Access to SQL Server Single Sign-On to OnGuard LS Application Server LS DataConduIT Service LS Skypoint.AlarmService CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 8

9 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited Installation  Extract the.zip file to a new directory on your hard drive SkyPointAlarmIntegration.PDF is the user manual  Double-click the setup.exe file to begin the installation Follow the prompts (standard installation options)  Open Windows Services and configure credentials for the Windows user that will run the LS SkyPoint.AlarmService  Link the Windows user running the LS_SkyPoint.AlarmService to an OnGuard user in System Administration For more information, refer to the Users Folder chapter > Users Form (Directory Accounts Sub-tab) section of the System Administration User Guide CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 9

10 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited Things that should already be installed  Support for LS Application Server Service Running on Account with permission to the database  LS DataConduIT Service Running on Account with permission to the database  LS Linkage Server Configured to run from System Administration  Test if you can run Web-based AAM This will ensure your Application Service is configured properly If you cannot run Web-based AAM, refer to the OnGuard installation guide  Database Authentication for Web Applications  Configuring the Web Application Server CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 10

11 Unauthorized Reproduction Prohibited OnGuard Configuration  Consists of two parts: DataConduIT Source configuration Done once to setup the DataConduIT Sources OnGuard Alarm configuration Updated anytime a new OnGuard Alarm is needed CR4400 - M00.00 (SkyPoint V0) 11 Note: See the SkyPoint Alarm Integration guide for more information on OnGuard configuration.
