IPcom REST API — Capabilities Overview

A high-level summary of what the IPcom API lets your software do — real-time event reception and remote control of both alarm panels and TRIKDIS communicators, plus device management.

What IPcom is. IPcom is TRIKDIS' communication/receiver software. TRIKDIS communicators connect to it over IP or cellular; behind each communicator sits an alarm control panel. IPcom receives the events these devices generate and forwards them to monitoring or third-party software. The REST API adds a programmatic layer on top — your application can receive events, send control and configuration commands, and manage the device fleet, reaching both the panels and the communicators.

1 Event reception

  • Real-time delivery of events to your software as they arrive.
  • Events from the panel (alarms, arm/disarm, zone activity, faults and restores) and from the communicator/system (connectivity loss, cellular/network status, receiver health).
  • Access to historical events and to system activity logs.
  • Per-user event visibility and filtering.

2 Integration formats

  • Events can be delivered through dedicated output channels in the format your platform expects.
  • Standard central-monitoring protocols supported (Sur-Gard, Contact ID, SIA DC-09, Monas and common variants).
  • Direct software integration via a JSON output, HTTP webhooks, or TCP (client/server).

3 Remote control

  • Arm / disarm / stay / sleep of the security system.
  • Bypass zones; cancel alarm / silence siren; fire-sensor reset.
  • Trigger panic / fire / medical events.
  • Control outputs / PGM — on/off, level, timed pulse (e.g. gates, relays).
  • Commands can be issued with a user code and can wait for the device's response.

4 Live status & state

  • Query panel status, armed/area state and zone/input states.
  • Read fault states, sensor values and wireless (RF) sensor data.
  • Retrieve device capabilities and configuration on demand.

5 Configuration & programming

  • Read and write device and panel settings remotely.
  • User management on the panel — list, add/remove users and set working modes.
  • Manage schedules, time and time-zone synchronisation.
  • Adjust communicator parameters (reporting interval, server address/port, object ID).

6 Fleet & system management

  • List devices, check connection status, signal level and session history.
  • Schedule device reboots and run firmware updates on supported devices.
  • Monitor IPcom server health, capacity and connected outputs.
Covers your use case. Control and events are available for both the alarm panels and the TRIKDIS communicators. Communicator-level operations (connectivity, reporting, addressing, firmware) and panel-level operations (arming, zones, outputs, users, status) are exposed through the same authenticated API.
