Reconeyez

Introduction​

Reconeyez is a wireless, battery-powered intrusion detection system designed for remote and off-grid deployments. It captures event-triggered snapshots and short video clips upon alarm activation. This guide covers how to configure Reconeyez devices and integrate them with the GCXONE platform.

Device Profile

  • Type — Wireless PIR Camera / Intrusion Detection System
  • Connectivity — LTE/4G (SIM card), Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth
  • Events — PIR-triggered image capture and short video clips
  • Live Streaming — Not supported (event-based only)
  • Playback — Not supported (image-based only)
  • Local Mode — Not applicable

Prerequisites​

Before starting the integration, ensure the following:

  • Reconeyez device is powered on with a valid SIM card (if using LTE) or connected to Wi-Fi
  • Device is registered on the Reconeyez Cloud platform
  • Firewall and proxy settings allow outgoing connections to the Reconeyez Cloud
  • GCXONE administrator access is available
  • Device ID from the Reconeyez platform is available (used as Serial Number in GCXONE)

Network Configuration​

Reconeyez devices connect over mobile data (LTE/4G), Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth rather than wired Ethernet:

  • Insert a SIM card with a valid data plan if using LTE
  • If using Wi-Fi, configure network settings through the mobile app or cloud platform — set SSID and password and ensure adequate signal strength
  • Devices automatically connect to the Reconeyez Cloud — minimal manual IP configuration is needed
  • Ensure firewall and proxy settings allow outgoing connections to the cloud platform

Event Review​

Reconeyez is optimized for event-driven capture, not continuous streaming:

  • View snapshots or video clips (typically 10–15 seconds) captured upon an event trigger
  • Use the cloud portal or mobile app for live status monitoring, reviewing historical events, and downloading clips or images
  • Live video is limited due to power conservation on battery-powered devices
  • Configure the number of photos and time interval for snapshot capture

Reconeyez Configuration Guide with GCXONE​

Step 1 — Log in to GCXONE

Step 2 — Navigate to the Configuration App

Step 3 — Go to Site → Devices → Add and select Reconeyez

Step 4 — Fill in the required fields:

  • Enter the Device ID from the Reconeyez platform as the Serial Number — this field is mandatory

Step 5 — Click Discover

Step 6 — Click Save

Note: The Device ID from the Reconeyez client is used as the Serial Number in GCXONE and is mandatory for successful discovery.

Platform Integration​

Reconeyez integrates with GCXONE using the following methods:

  • API access for event forwarding and video access
  • Email/FTP notifications to external systems
  • Central monitoring station integration using protocols such as SIA or Contact ID
  • In GCXONE, configure a workflow to add the webhook for event forwarding

Additional Details​

  • Reconeyez devices are image-based — they do not support continuous live streaming or playback
  • Local Mode is not applicable for Reconeyez devices
  • Battery-powered design limits live video capability to preserve device battery life
  • Ajax PIR-CAMs operate similarly — event-based image capture only
