Fermax video intercom

How to integrate a Fermax intercom with the ILEVIA server via SIP: intercom setup, SIP Client and IP Camera components in ilevia Manager, and the ILEVIA Control app.

This guide explains how to integrate a Fermax intercom with the ILEVIA server to receive calls in the ILEVIA Control app. It was written using the BLOCK PANEL 001-01 model (firmware V03.50S) and also applies to other Fermax intercoms. For the general logic, see Video intercom.

Intercom configuration

Step 1. Access the Fermax intercom web page and open the SIP settings:

  1. in SIP SERVER enter the IP address of the ILEVIA server;

  2. in Domain enter the ILEVIA server IP address again;

  3. in STUN enter turn.ilevia.com.

All parameters are explained in SIP Client and SIP Group.

Intercom camera (optional)

Add an IP Camera component (category Surveillance / Security) and enter the intercom RTSP address in Local URL and Remote URL:

rtsp://<user>:<password>@<intercom IP>/mpeg/media.amp

Replace <user> and <password> with a user from the intercom web page (e.g. admin) and <intercom IP> with its address on the local network. Then connect the camera in the IP Camera field of the intercom SIP Client.
