Automated Audio Message
Combine audio with video surveillance to trigger recorded messages or real-time alerts based on specific detection events. This integration creates a cohesive security response tailored to each situation, enhancing the overall effectiveness of your system
How to Configure an Automated Message
Assign/Associate an Adjacent Speaker to the Device (This is the device that will trigger the automated message)
- Select Configuration along the top menu.
- Select Devices on the left context menu.
- Locate and select the Device you wish to associate the speaker to.
- On the Manage device page scroll down to the Audio Association section.
- From the list of available speakers, select the speaker to associate to the device (the speaker must be assigned to the same site in Y6OS to appear as an option).
- Confirm the Audio Configuration box also is enabled for Audio and Audio Output.
Add a webhook to the organization
- Select Configuration along the top menu.
- Select Organizations on the left context menu.
- Select the organization for which you want to add the webhook.
- On the Manage Organization page locate the Manage Organization Webhooks section and select Add Webhook.
- Name the Webhook.
- For the URL please use: “http://audioaction.service.internal/“.
- Click Save.
Create a Notification Rule
- Select Configuration along the top menu.
- Select Notification the left context menu.
- Select Add Notification Rule in the upper right corner of the page.
- Add the Name, Description and select the Organization for the rule.
- Select the Timezone for the rule.

- Locate the Source section and select the device(s), device groups, or Sites that the rule will apply to. The device you associated the speaker to needs to be within this selection.
- Locate the Events section and select the events that will trigger the automated message. YourSix recommends the use of AOA (Axis Object Analytics). The analytic which you select needs to be running on the device. For example, if you select AOA, then you must confirm that AOA is running on the device.
- Locate the Recipients section and select the webhook icon within the table (3rd icon from the left). From the dropdown box select the URL http://audioaction.service.internal/.
- Select save at the bottom of the screen.
Test the Rule
Once the rule has been created with the webhook there are two main ways to test the rule and notification: physically or remotely. It is ideal to physically test the rule
- Physical test: Test the rule and notification using a real-world scenario. For example, have someone physical onsite walk by the device to trigger it. Make sure this is during the time set in the schedule of the notification.
- Remote test: Test the rule from the device interface by triggering the application remotely. Follow the below steps. Please note the exact location of certain items will differ depending on the device firmware.
