Below is a screenshot of IP Search Tool. This is the installation tool for Longse camera's and made by Herospeed (herospeed.net). Windows didn't like me installing this piece of software and warned me for it. As usual, i neglected that warning and went ahead whit it (on a demo machine of course).
It's not (yet) what i described above, there are a few flaws and its not perfect. On the other hand, it's the first one i saw that shows Longse (of course), Arecont Vision, Sony, Axis and an 'unknown' (it's a Vivotek in this case) brand camera in the same discovery process. Maybe there are other tools out there that do this but this is the first one i've actually seen doing it.
Although it's not perfect, it can be usefull to find camera's in an unknown network for instance. Sure, a network scanner like Advanced IP Scanner can do that to but that will give you all networked devices, not only the camera's. if you have a lot of networked devices this tool might be a faster approach. Also, it will find Longse camera's in different subnets which a network scanner won't.
Most cameras advertise themselves on the network using either Universal Plug-an-play UPnP, ONVIF device discovery (which is basically web service discovery), and I think maybe the Bonjour protocol. Others also implement a proprietary approach which usually involves listening on a UDP port for a packet of a specific length and format. But if a discovery tool implements the first two then they'll capture most cameras on the network. The point is, it is not like they had to write special code for each manufacturer of camera. I would imagine all NVRs would have something like this built in. It is certainly easy to implement.
Agreed. About every VMS i've tried will find all/most of the IP cameras on a network so i indeed don't think it's hard to do. Quastions sstays, why doesn't anyone provide such a discovery tool. It would certainly speed up things in troubleshooting unknown installations
Apart from the standard ONVIF discovery, upnp protocols..., I have always assumed the cameras also support undocumented protocols that their proprietary discovery tools use for discovering the cameras on different subnets. I am not sure if the camera manufactures publish those protocols. One could take a look using wireshark I suppose and reverse engineer them.
By defining configuration profiles, you define the recording quality for cameras using each profile, choose to use Smart recording or to set the times for the cameras to record, and define your retention policy. You can create multiple configuration profiles, so that you can create the ideal balance between quality of video and the storage requirements across the different types of cameras and areas of your sites.
From a wide range of available camera options and our best-in-class LPR algorithm, to patented search and analytics and broad alerting capabilities, we offer the tools required to build a successful LPR program. To be most effective with your LPR program you will need cameras that are designed for the results you want to achieve. This is why we provide various cameras, mobile applications and even LPR integrations for existing camera systems to help you collect the data that makes a difference.
To do license plate recognition well, you need the right tools for the job. We provide the most flexibility and options for capturing license plate data with fixed, mobile, trailer and quick-deploy camera systems, video-based integration and even mobile apps. All of these are equipped with our in-house developed, industry-leading LPR algorithm that is relied upon by law enforcement agencies world-wide.
I was almost giving up at that point, but there was a forum post in Russian, which I understood only with the help from Google translate, that helped me a step forward towards the goal.
Connected the holes marked in the picture for 30+s, and after some fiddling with the network settings of my computer, the Dahua configuration tool was able to connect the device ?.
Now it was just the matter of getting the right configuration persisted within the cameras, but for whatever the reason, that did not work with the configuration tool ?. The cameras still did not connect to Hikvision, and loading the IP configuration from the camera revealed that it was not saved:
I thought I had found a solution to the configuration tool not working when I just opened up the camera's IP address and discovered the cameras serve a web-based configuration interface, but there turned out to be one more obstacle on my way: the login screen had a nasty bug which cleared the form after every keystroke or moment, making me unable to insert "admin:admin" to the form ?.
The same bug was present within the web tool itself, once logged in, but now I already knew how to tackle this problem. This is the call to get the configuration saved to the device when navigated to the right page:
For those who are less tech-savvy, pairing our wireless cameras with our WiFi NVR is an excellent choice, as it's virtually hassle-free. These cameras are designed with plug-and-play connectivity, enabling effortless pairing and connection to our WiFi NVR. There's no need for any configuration on the user's part. With a clear line of sight, the NVR and cameras can transmit signals up to 200 feet away. When put together, they form a wireless security camera system that does not need to be configured or networked, which is something we talk about further in this article.
If you've purchased a camera and supplied us with a specific IP address for configuration, please check the IP address label on the camera box or refer to the email chain to find the address, username, and password we set.
Should you encounter difficulties following the config tool guide or if accessing the camera's web interface is a challenge, consider purchasing a networking support session via the link provided below.
