From your evalink talos dashboard, navigate to the menu `Company` and click on the tab `Integrations`

Search for **Virtual VdS Receiver**,

and click on:

`Add Integration`.&#x20;

Then, click on the `Submit` button.

Now, the next step is to enable and configure the `Virtual VdS Receiver` on your site, so that you can allow communication between your alarm panel and evalink talos.

To add the VdS Receiver integration to a site, navigate to the menu `Sites`, pick the site to configure, click on the tab `Integrations`, and then click on `VdS Receiver`.

To enable the **Virtual VdS Receiver**, click on the button: `Enable Virtual VdS Receiver.`

Now, select the applicable options for this site and click on `Submit`.

evalink talos now provides all the technical information you need to configure your VdS alarm panel.&#x20;

You can now add the IP addresses, the ports, and the encryption key details to establish the communication with evalink talos.

Do you need to connect the **Virtual VdS Receive**r onto more than one site? Just go back to the menu `Sites` and repeat the process!

And... That's it!

You have now added and set up the **Virtual VdS Receiver** integration into your evalink talos account, where you can manage alarms from VdS Secur-IP and VdS 2465 alarm panels on your site.
