🛡️ Ajax Integration
Integrating Ajax Systems with GCXONE combines sleek, user-friendly security hardware with enterprise-grade cloud monitoring. This guide covers the invitation process, SIA-DC09 configuration, and account mapping.
📋 Prerequisites
Before starting, ensure you have:
- Ajax PRO Desktop: application installed on your PC or Mac.
- Active Ajax Space: with at least one Hub or NVR configured.
- NXGEN Monitoring Access: You will need to invite our technical account to your space.

💡 Troubleshooting
- Discovery Fails: Ensure the
ajax@nxgen.ioinvitation has been accepted. This usually takes less than 1 hour during business operations. - Signals Not Arriving: Double-check the Account Number. If it mismatches by even one digit, the signals will be rejected by the cloud firewall.
- No Video Verification: Ensure you are using an Ajax NVR or MotionCam (PhOD) for visual alarm confirmation.
