Prerequisites
To set up the Milestone VMS integration, you'll need to log into the Alta Access system, go to Integrations > All Integrations and click on the Milestone tile. Download and install Microsoft .NET 4.8, ACX, and Milestone Plugin.
To set up the Avigilon Alta integration on the Milestone server:
Run the Openpath_ACX_Plugin exe
Find the Openpath_ACX exe and run as administrator
Change the following settings under Milestone Configuration:
Local port is required, and it must match the port defined in the Milestone Access Control settings
Remote host is required, and it must be the IP address of the machine that is running the event server
Milestone plugin has two settings, October-2019 or Before October-2019—select the appropriate version for your setup
Change the following settings under Avigilon Alta Configuration:
User and Pass are required. Enter the login credentials of an Avigilon Alta Super Admin user. Avigilon Alta recommends creating a dedicated user for this purpose.
Click Save then Close
Milestone Management Client Configuration:
Go to Site Navigation
Right-click on Access Control and click Create New
Note: Leave User name and Password as the default. Ensure the Port field matches the ACX Plugin.
Click Next and follow the prompts to tie cameras to doors
