Compatibility of Synology Transactions Basic integration methods Surveillance Station is compatible with devices that transmit data by network or COM port. If your device transmits data using one of the two interfaces, you can set up your device in Surveillance Station. There are three ways Surveillance Station receives raw data from a transaction device: • TCP: Set up an IP address and port to receive data over TCP connection. Note that Surveillance Station only receives data as a TCP client. The received raw data are the contents above TCP including the package headers. • Serial Port: Receive data via COM port (RS232). Note that this option is only available if your NAS comes with a COM port interface. Currently, only the NVR model NVR1218 supports this interface. • Surveillance Station WebAPI: Receive raw data using Surveillance Station WebAPI. For more information, please refer to the section on How to use WebAPI to send transactions. Special integration Integration with the AXIS Barcode Reader can be used to monitor factory production lines or used during checkouts in supermarkets to monitor transactions along with video recordings. However, only AXIS cameras support AXIS Barcode Reader. For more information on AXIS Barcode Reader, please refer to the FAQ in the Synology official website. License One transaction device will be counted as one device when calculating the maximum number of supported devices for each NAS model, however two device licenses will be required to set up a transaction device in Surveillance Station without pairing it with a camera. Including a paired camera to the setup will require an additional device license. Please refer to the following scenarios: • To receive transaction data, 2 licenses will be required to set up 1 transaction device in Surveillance Station. • To overlay transaction data on the video images from a paired camera, 3 licenses will be required to set up 1 transaction device and 1 paired camera in Surveillance Station.

Introduction
Compatibility of Synology Transactions
Basic integration methods
Surveillance Station is compatible with devices that transmit data by network or COM port.
If your device transmits data using one of the two interfaces, you can set up your device
in Surveillance Station. There are three ways Surveillance Station receives raw data from a
transaction device:
•
TCP
: Set up an IP address and port to receive data over TCP connection. Note that
Surveillance Station only receives data as a TCP client. The received raw data are the contents
above TCP including the package headers.
•
Serial Port
: Receive data via COM port (RS232). Note that this option is only available if your
NAS comes with a COM port interface. Currently, only the NVR model NVR1218 supports this
interface.
•
Surveillance Station WebAPI
: Receive raw data using Surveillance Station WebAPI. For
more information, please refer to the section on How to use WebAPI to send transactions.
Special integration
Integration with the
AXIS Barcode Reader
can be used to monitor factory production lines or
used during checkouts in supermarkets to monitor transactions along with video recordings.
However, only AXIS cameras support AXIS Barcode Reader. For more information on AXIS
Barcode Reader, please refer to the
FAQ
in the Synology official website.
License
One transaction device will be counted as one device when calculating the maximum number
of supported devices for each NAS model, however two device licenses will be required to
set up a transaction device in Surveillance Station without pairing it with a camera. Including
a paired camera to the setup will require an additional device license. Please refer to the
following scenarios:
• To receive transaction data, 2 licenses will be required to set up 1 transaction device in
Surveillance Station.
• To overlay transaction data on the video images from a paired camera, 3 licenses will be
required to set up 1 transaction device and 1 paired camera in Surveillance Station.
