5. O'rnatish bo'yicha ko'rsatmalar

5.1. Wiring the Camera

The SIMICAM IP Camera supports both Power over Ethernet (PoE) and DC 12V power supply. Ensure your network infrastructure (NVR or PoE Switch) is compatible with the chosen power method.

5.1.1. Working with PoE NVR

For PoE cameras, a single Ethernet cable connects the camera to the PoE NVR, providing both power and data transmission. The NVR then connects to a monitor (via HDMI or VGA) and your network (for remote viewing).

Wiring diagram showing a PoE camera connected to a PoE NVR via an Ethernet cable. The NVR is connected to a power supply, a network router, and a monitor via HDMI/VGA. It also shows connections for audio out and a mouse.

5.1.2. Working with PoE Switch

Alternatively, a PoE camera can be powered by a PoE switch. The camera connects to the PoE switch, which then connects to your NVR (if used) and router. The NVR (if used) connects to a monitor and its own power supply.

5.1.3. DC 12V Power Option

If not using PoE, the camera requires a 12V DC power adapter (not included) and an Ethernet connection to a router. PoE cameras can also be powered by 12V DC if a PoE NVR or switch is not used.

5.2. NVR Compatibility

The SIMICAM IP Camera supports ONVIF protocol versions 2.0-2.4, ensuring compatibility with NVRs from various brands including Dahua, Hikvision, and SIMICAM.

5.3. Initial IP Address Configuration

By default, the camera is set to DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. For system settings, it is recommended to use the Windows IE browser. You may need to install a browser plug-in for the first visit.

To modify the camera's IP address, use the IPCBatchTool software. You can download it from www.vatilon.com (SERVICE -> WIFI Cam Software Download -> IPCBatchTool.zip).

  1. Kamerani tarmog'ingizga ulang.
  2. Launch the IPCBatchTool.
  3. Ni qidirish the camera's IP.
  4. You can set a fixed IP for the camera. Ensure the camera's IP network segment is consistent with your NVR, computer, and LAN to avoid conflicts. For example, if your camera IP is 192.168.1.10, the network segment is "1", and all other devices on the network should also be in the "1" segment.

9. Foydalanuvchi maslahatlari

  • For optimal 4K resolution, ensure your NVR is also 4K compatible. If your NVR is 5MP/4MP/1080P, the camera's output will be limited to that resolution.
  • Always ensure the camera's IP network segment matches your local network for seamless discovery and connection, especially when using tools like IPCBatchTool or the mobile app.
  • Consider using a PoE NVR for a simpler setup with a single cable for power and data, and for reliable 24/7 recording.
  • Regularly check the camera's web interface for motion detection settings and email alarm configurations to ensure your surveillance system is active and sending alerts as desired.
