I have been trying to connect my Hikvision cameras connected to Hubitat.
I originally had the issue that the 4 cameras were connected to the PoE ports of the NVR. @johnwill1 very helpful talked me how to get the cameras onto IP addresses that matched my LAN, and fed back to the NVR.
That is all sorted and I am now trying to connect the cameras to Hubitat.
I have followed the document HIKVISION Devices | Hubitat Documentation and added the cameras to Hubitat, see:
I then followed the steps needed to add the alarm option on the Hikvision configuration, see here. The cameras inactive on Hubitat however, which I suspect is the alarm settings as when I entered I got the response “ the service is not available”. See:
I have three cameras with similar configurations. I have a 4th camera with motion sensor tracking with a different configuration, no mention of alarm server so I tried to use HTTP server. Unfortunately I cannot even log into that camera on its IP of 192.168.0.204 - getting “network error” even though it is still connecting fine with the NVR which it is live and recording on. See:
I welcome any thoughts of the community.
Many thanks
Justin
