Most third-party camera manufacturers will provide a detection software tool that can be used to locate the camera on the network, identify its IP address, or to identify its model information. When configuring an IP camera, the user must know the camera’s networking information in order to connect with the camera’s web interface, add it to a Server, or for general network awareness. Note: Please use the Digital Watchdog camera compatibility lists for DW Spectrum or for the VMAX IP Plus if you are unsure if the camera will be supported by your Server or NVR. This article will outline how to configure a Hikvision camera for making additions to a VMAX IP Plus unit or to DW Spectrum. Following Hikvision’s v5.5.0 firmware update, the camera’s ONVIF function is disabled by default. Hikvision cameras, for example, can be discovered within the camera network, but will often be unable to be automatically added due to their default security settings. However, if the camera is a third-party device and is using its factory default features, issues may arise during this process.
When ONVIF compliant devices are added to a camera network, DW Spectrum, as well as the VMAX IP Plus Series NVRs, will attempt to automatically add it to the Server when using their Auto Discovery feature.
