From trigger to verified response

You have a Network Optix VMS
NX Witness, DW Spectrum or Wisenet WAVE, your existing camera system, all powered by Nx.
AW Connect links to your system
We connect AW Connect to your Nx video system, ready to act the moment something happens.
Two ways to trigger it
AW Connect can fire off your alarm system, or with no alarm at all, straight from your cameras’ own analytics: line-crossing, intrusion, loitering or a virtual tripwire.
When it trips, footage is grabbed
The moment a trigger fires, alarm or analytic, AW Connect automatically pulls the video tied to that exact event.
AI checks the footage
Add AI on top and describe what matters in plain English, like “only alert if someone’s wearing a balaclava”, and AI scans every clip so operators only see what counts.
You and our operators, alerted together
The verified clip reaches our monitoring team and pings your phone in the Monitoring Pro app at the same moment.
Operators verify and dispatch the right response
A real person confirms the threat and sends the right response, boosting police priority and cutting false call-outs.
NX Camera Health
AW Connect continuously checks the health of your camera system, so problems are caught before they cost you the footage that matters.
Health Reporting
Choose a custom health zone for each camera.
Offline Monitoring
Get signalled when a camera stays offline beyond the grace period.
Camera Clean
Daily AI check for dirt, cobwebs, moisture or lens obstruction.
Placement Check
Daily AI comparison that alerts if a camera has moved or been blocked.
Recording Retention
Alerts when the system falls below the expected archive retention.
System-wide Health Checks
Monitoring checks across the whole linked NX system.
AI Scheduled Camera Checks
Put virtual guards to work. Schedule a snapshot or short clip on any camera, let AI, or our operators, check it, and you only hear about it when something’s actually wrong.
A car yard checks the front gate every night at 10 pm. Gate closed? No alert, nobody’s woken. Left open? We respond.
