Upgraded entry-level IP surveillance system

Issue 2 2022 Surveillance

Dahua Technology has upgraded its entry-level IP surveillance to help users install and maintain equipment more easily when using IP security systems. The upgrades make the systems easier for connection, use and maintenance.

End-users can quickly learn how to install an IP security system that is expandable and open. Multiple connection modes are available for easy connectivity. PoE (Power over Ethernet) and Wi-Fi technologies are used to reduce wiring difficulties for end-users.

Additionally, plug-and-play (PnP) enables the IP monitoring systems to adapt to hardware changes with minimal intervention by the user. If the IP camera is plugged into the NVR's built-in switch, the camera will automatically initialise, while the pictures will appear directly on the NVR display. If the camera is connected to an external PoE switch, the PnP function needs to be manually enabled on the NVR interface. In this case, NVR will automatically search for the camera and add it automatically.

By integrating the NVR channel management function in these two apps, end-users and installers can complete a series of operations, such as device search, initialisation, channel addition, preview and drawing, on their phones, when configuring a small IP security system. There is no need for them to use additional monitors and laptops, which greatly simplifies the configuration of the system.

To make maintenance easier, the system supports binding device keychains through DMSS. When users forget the password, they can retrieve it on the DMSS app. When the device is hosted on the company’s platform, the installer can receive the fault information from the device and do some basic fault handling remotely.

This upgraded entry-level IP surveillance system is a simple step for users to enter the IP world and is mainly applicable in small shops, apartments, villas and other small security scenarios.
