How to get it to connect to two different routers?

It cannot be connected to two different routers at the same time.If you want to change routers, you will need to reset the camera and reconnect your phone and camera. Please make sure that your phone and camera are both connected to the same Wi-Fi network before pairing.

How to reset Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera?

Why The current network is in poor condition/The APP keeps going round in circles?

The network signal is weak if there are walls between the outlet, router and phone. This is because the network signal is absorbed or blocked by walls or large obstacles. It will help to have strong Wi-Fi with a Wi-Fi extender/booster.

How to charge Bird Feeder Camera?

A solar charging panel integrated into the roof can provide a constant source of power to support the smart bird camera. You can charge the battery of the Bird Box Camera via USB for continuous charging at night and on rainy days.

Why the Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera battery is drain so fast?

It is low power consumption camera. Plus the solar panel power in charge, it can maintain the daily energy consumption in sunny day. If the battery drains too fast, you should check:

How to identify birds species?

Simply click on the “Identify” icon and the app will identify the bird species and provide a description of the bird. See the manual for details.

Why the recognition result is wrong?

The accuracy of the results depends on the angle and clarity of the bird images.

To ensure a correct result, please ensure that the image is clear enough. The identifying features (bird’s head, tail, wings or pattern on feathers) should not be obscured by obstructions.

The bird should be in the main position in the picture; try to capture the best moment to recognise the bird if the previous recognition accuracy rate is too low; if there are two or more bird species in a picture, the identified result will be the one in the main position.

Guides for Hikvision NVRs with V5 firmware

How to set up motion detection and alerts on a Hikvision NVR

What is Motion Detection and why is it useful?​

Motion detection is one of the easiest events to set up and will notify you as soon as a person or vehicle enters a predefined detection zone in your scene. Traditionally, it would just rely on lots of pixels changing between frames in your camera’s video stream, which would indicate movement in the scene.

Of course, this would cause lots of alerts for things you are not interested in, such as animals, moving plants and rain. Hikvision’s Acusense cameras and NVRs now have something called Motion Detection 2.0, which cuts the false-positive detections right down as will only notify you when people and/or vehicles are in the scene by learning what they look like. In this simple step-by-step guide, we will show you how to get motion detection set up on the new NVR 5.0 web interface.

Step 1: Go to your NVR’s Motion Detection configuration page…​

Step 2: Configure your Motion Detection zone and rules…​

​

Quick tip…​

If you find that the camera preview is too small when drawing your detection zones, you can switch the view to full screen by clicking on the Full screen (four arrows) button in the toolbar, and then exit full screen by pressing Esc on your keyboard.​

Step 3: Set the arming schedule to specify when you want Motion Detection active…​

​

Quick tip…​

If the 30-minute segments are not precise enough for you, you can finely tune a period of arming or disarming by double-clicking on the segments and specifying your start and end times in minutes using the arrows.​

​

Step 4: Set what you need the NVR to do when a camera detects a target…​

How to connect an IP camera to a Hikvision NVR

Adding cameras to your Network Video Recorder (NVR) is a crucial step in any CCTV setup. Not only does it allow you to store and access all your camera recordings in one place, but it also simplifies camera configuration. In this simple step-by-step guide, we’ll show you how to add cameras to a Hikvision NVR using the new NVR 5 web interface.

.

Why add cameras to an NVR?​

.

Before you start…​

Before anything, to be able to add your IP cameras, you need to make sure that:
.

.

How to add your cameras using the V5 GUI…​

Step 1:​

Open a web browser and enter the IP address of your NVR in the address bar. If you are not sure what this is, use the SADP tool to find it.​

Step 2:​

Log in to the NVR using the “admin” username and password you have set on it.​

​

Step 3:​

Go to: Device Access > Device Configuration > PoE Settings​

​

If you are connecting your camera via the Plug-and-Play method, then make sure that Network Camera Plug-and-Play is enabled on the POE port you will be connecting the camera to on this page.​

​

For any camera with a cable run under 100m, leave the Network Cable Distance as Short Distance.​

​

If you are connecting your camera manually by IP address, disable the Network Camera Plug-and-Play option for the channel that you plan to add the camera to.​

Step 4:​

Go to: Device Access > Device > Video Device​

​

For any Plug-and-Play camera, just make sure that it is in its inactive default state and then connect it to the port you reserved in step 3. After 20 seconds or so, the camera Status should turn to Connecting and then Online (you may need to click on Refresh to see this).​

​

For Manually added cameras, if you can see the camera in the List of Online Devices section, then just tick the box for the camera and then click + Add to Device List, which will then automatically add it to one of the channels you disabled Plug-and-Play on in the last step.​

Alternatively…​

Click on +Add at the top of the page and fill out the fields as follows:​

​

IP Address: Enter the IP address of your camera, using the ‘Test’ button to verify there is a camera at that address. ​

Device Name: This can be anything you like, as it is the name the camera will show with on your NVR. ​

Protocol: Select the camera’s manufacturer from this list, or failing that, use the ONVIF protocol (your camera will need to have ONVIF enabled for this to work). ​

Management Port: Enter the Server port set on the camera, which you can find in the SADP tool or in Network>Basic Settings>Port in the camera’s web browser interface. If you haven’t changed this, it is usually 8000 by default. ​

User Name: “admin” or the username of any other users set up on that camera. ​

Password: The password set with that user on the camera – if this is the same as the ‘Default Activation Password‘ you have set on the NVR, then you can tick this box instead. ​

Transfer Protocol: ‘Auto’ is normally best. ​

​

When these are completed, click OK.​

​

Your camera should then appear in the list of devices with an assigned channel, and an Online status, meaning it has been successfully added.​

Intro

You’re Not Alone

Installation can be hard. We’re happy to talk it over with you or take over a DIY project that you’ve realized needs professional installation. Our support hours are from 9AM-7PM Monday – Friday (EST) and we are available via chat, email, phones, and remote PC screen-sharing, if you need any help. You can reach us at 866-414-2553.

Disclaimer: The laws governing cable and wire installation can vary from state to state and sometimes even counties and cities pass specific, unique laws regarding cabling; these state, county and city laws are too complex for us to explain. This page is not a how-to installation guide, as we cannot keep up with local laws.

Although we now offer installation, locally, we started as a DIY-only company, and we primarily serve those adventurous types who want to run the cable for themselves. Even so, we get asked about do-it-yourself installation all the time…. We wanted to post a few of our standard answers here.

Part 1

Don’t Start a Fire or Shock Yourself

Electricity Can Kill You; Avoid Electrical Lines!

Never strap, staple or otherwise run networking cable to conduit or raceways carrying electrical current. Never run any cable within 2 inches of Class I electrical lines, lighting, fire alarm, or power lines or devices.

Give a Wide Berth to High Voltage Devices or Lines

Never run any cable within 6 feet of a conductor or fuse box. A minimum 5-inch distance is required from any fluorescent lighting fixture or power line over 2 kVA and up to 24 inches from any power line over 5 kVA. If unsure about the a device or line, consult an electrician. Route cable away as far as you can from large motors, generators, induction heaters, arc welders, x-ray equipment, and radio frequency, microwave or radar sources. NEC/NFPA 70, Article 800-52

Protect it from Future Physical Damage

You might want to put a nail or screw in later and don’t want to puncture your cables, so when a cable, raceway, or soft conduit (anything you can puncture) is installed parallel to framing members (joists, rafters, or studs), furring strips, or crown molding, keep the cable at least 32 mm (1.26 inches) from the edge. NEC 300.4(D)

Don’t Leave it Dangling – Secure Your Cables

You can connect cable directly to a surface with straps, staples, cable ties, hangers, or similar fittings, but you have to secure it somehow. NEC 800.24; 300.11

Use Plenum rated cable in Areas with Airflow

If you are going to run cables through an area which is used by your heating, air circulation, or air conditioner systems (such as above a drop ceiling in an office), you must use Plenum rated cables, which have a special insulation that has low smoke and low flame characteristics. When securing cable in Plenum required areas, make sure your straps, cable ties, and similar fittings also are plenum rated. NEC 830; NFPA 90A

National Rules – Consult your local laws

These guides are meant to familiarize our clients with the national requirements as expressed in the National Fire and Alarm Signaling Code and the National Electrical Code. Your state or local laws may differ. If you live outside the USA, consult your governmental laws. Don’t consider this your only resource.

Turn the Breaker Power OFF

Any time that you will be drilling or cutting into your wall, you want to turn the power off. You don’t want to drill into a hidden electrical line. You probably already know this, but our lawyers insisted.

Wear Safety Goggles

Any time that you are drilling, you want to wear safety goggles and hearing protection, like ear plugs.

Part 3

Running the Cable

Basic Cabling

Terminating Cable (Putting the ends on)

Instructions for putting the RJ45 ends on to ethernet (for example, Cat5 / Cat6 / Cat5e) cable.

Using Our Waterproof Connectors

When installing a camera outdoors, it is imperative that you put our waterproof RJ45 Connector on the ethernet (for example, Cat5 / Cat6 / Cat5e) cable.

No Protection – Just Running the Wire

You can connect cable directly to a surface with straps, staples, cable ties, hangers, or similar fittings, but the cable could get damaged and someone might be able to cut it.

24 Volt Wiring: PTZ

The Spotlight PTZ cameras uses 24 volt power rather than POE because it requires more power than is capable of Power-Over-Ethernet for its natural white light spotlight. The Laser can also be powered via 24 volt power and can be powered the same way, although it is not required to do so. This guide shows you how to wire these PTZs.

24 Volt Wiring: Sharpshooter

The Sharpshooter IP Bullet cameras uses 24 volt power rather than POE because it requires more power than is capable of Power-Over-Ethernet for its long range infrared. This guide shows you how to wire the Sharpshooter.

Protecting your Cabling

Liquidtight Plastic Tubing

Liquidtight plastic tubing is easier to work with than flexible metal tubing, but is less secure. It is also great for areas with lots of expected moisture as it won’t rust.

Flexible Metal Conduit (FMC)

Flexible metal conduit is difficult to cut (watch out for sharp edges), but easier than solid conduit to install.

Electric Metal Tubing (EMT)

Solid metal conduit is the most secure form of installation. It requires a specialty conduit bending tool.

Conduit Fill

This chart will let you know how many cable runs you can fit in one conduit pipe, depending on the size of the conduit.

Raceway (Outdoors) – Coming Soon

Raceways are most popular indoors to make the space look clean and professional. There are also outdoor rated raceways; this guide covers using raceways outdoors.

Clean and Professional Interiors

Raceway (Indoors)

Raceways are most popular indoors to make the space look clean and professional. There are also outdoor rated raceways. This guide covers using raceways indoors.

Ethernet Wall Plates

Not recommended. It can be difficult to find a wall plate that passes POE power and provides grounding. These devices also provide a secondary point of failure, and take up far more room than a cable pass through plate for larger systems.

Dealing with Long Distance

Using POE switches to reduce cabling

You can run one cable to a POE switch and then run several cameras to that switch, however, POE switches are not plug-n-play. POE switches do require you to know a decent amount about computer networking.

Cables run over 300 feet

Cat5e and Cat6 cable data has a limit of 300 feet, but if you need to go further than that you can use a POE extender, POE injector, or POE switch to hear and repeat the signal. This article discusses when you would use each of these tools.

Long Distance Wireless

Military-Grade Long-Range Wifi Solution are used when attempting to send wireless IP Camera video data more than 100 feet (and up to 3 Miles). These products will require a professional wireless network technician on location.

NVR Mounting Options and Hard Drive Installation

Shelf / Desk Mounting NVRs

This is what most people do: just put it on a shelf or desk. This makes it easy to connect to a TV/monitor and use the mouse (included) to control the NVR.

Rack Mounting NVRs

Companies often want to put the NVR in their server rack room. People who do this often to control the NVR only through our apps or web browser. Only our larger NVRs (16 channels and up) are wide enough to be rack mounted (and they come with ears). Our smaller NVRs can use our Rack Mount Shelf.

Wall Mounting NVRs

Many people choose to mount their NVR on a wall near a TV. To do this, you will want to purchase a vertical rack, like this one that matches the height of your NVR. The 16, 32, and 64 channels units have a height of 2U and the 128 channel is 3U. NVRs are heavy and you will want to make sure your wall can support the weight.

Mounting NVRs behind a Wall / in an Attic

People who are afraid of the theft of an NVR often place it behind a false wall or in an attic. People who do this control the NVR only through our apps or web browser. Be aware: Not all attics are insulated well enough to be within the temperature requirements of the NVR. Temperature range is listed on each NVR’s technical specs tab.

“NVR” Lock Boxes

There’s a few companies advertising “NVR Lock Boxes,” but any Server Rack or Computer Rack will do. Most Server Racks or Mounts have locks on them already. This picture is of a Tripp Lite Server Rack with Lock It houses a 32 channel NVR, two of our POE Switches, and a router, but there are tons of companies selling small server racks online.

NVR hard drive installation

If you purchase both a hard drive(s) and recorder from us, we will happily install the hard drive for you. but here’s a handy guide if you want to do it yourself.

Part 5: Specialized Work

When to NOT DIY – Get an Expert

Long Distance Wireless

Military-Grade Long-Range Wifi Solution are used when attempting to send wireless IP Camera video data more than 100 feet (and up to 3 Miles). These products will require a professional wireless network technician on location. We can’t offer support on this product remotely, as once we can see it remotely, that means that it is already working.

Aerial Cable

Aerial cable clearance varies based on location (cable over a road needs more clearance than over a sidewalk, for example), needs to be enclosed within 8 feet of finished grade, and requires a on-site structural analysis to make sure the cable won’t break. Hire an expert.

Burial of Cable

Number one, call 811 before you ever dig: know where your power company has buried its power cables! The required cable burying depth also can vary based on your local zoning laws and your certificate of occupancy; you should get an expert.

Elevators

Don’t even try to install any cable in one without a licensed elevator technician’s help as the cable needs to be inside the cable traveler. An error in securing the cable can result in damage to the elevator’s operation – and potentially the people inside it. Don’t mess with it; get a licensed elevator technician to run the cable.

Steps:

Please right-click and hold your mouse for over 10 seconds to see if the system can reboot or not. Or, please try to connect the system to another TV monitor with a higher resolution (above 1080P)

.

(2) Cause: The hard disk drive inside of the DVR box is broken, and use the screwdriver to open the DVR box to unplug the wires of the hard disk drive, and reboot the DVR to have a try. If the DVR box can be rebooted after unplugging the wires of the hard disk drive(HDD), which means the HDD is having an issue, and needs a replacement, plz contact email love@hiseeu.com for replacement HDD

After steps, if the thing still cann’t be resolved, which means the NVR box is broken, plz contact email love@hiseeu.com for replacement NVR box if their warranty is still 1 year

.

2.NVR Indicator light is off:

(1) Cause: The power adapter 52V 2.5 A connected to the NVR box is broken

Step: Use another power supply 52V 2.5 A to power on the NVR unit to have a try ( If you do not have a spare one, can contact us to buy a new one or we send you a new one if your warranty is still under 1 year )

.

(2) Cause: The hard disk drive inside of the NVR box is broken Step: Use the screwdriver to open the NVR box to unplug the wires of the hard disk drive, and reboot the DVR to have a try. If the NVR box can be rebooted after unplugging the wires of the hard disk drive(HDD), which means the HDD is broken, and needs a HDD replacement, plz contact email love@hiseeu.com for replacement HDD

.

H:Why DVR/NVR can’t record or playback video?

.

If HDD(Hard disk drive) is having issue or something wrong with record setting, the DVR can’t record/playback the video

Resolve Issues with Missing Cameras

Learn how to resolve issues when cameras are missing from your Verkada account

Updated over a week ago

When you log in to Verkada Command, you can only access cameras and video in organizations or sites where your user account has permissions.

Note: Even if you are an Org Admin, you still need to grant yourself permission to view all sites. Learn more about roles and permissions for cameras and Command.

If you log in to Command and cameras are missing or have disappeared, always check user permissions. The most common reason cameras are not visible is that your user account needs permissions to the site(s) where the cameras are configured.

If you are an Org Admin, you can check and correct your own permissions:

Resolve Issues with Night Mode

Resolve Issues with Night Mode

Common issues with IR and Night Mode with steps to resolve them

Updated over a week ago

Each Verkada camera has night vision capabilities, using a sensor to detect low-light situations. When external lighting is low, the camera switches to night mode and records in black and white, using infrared (IR) LEDs to illuminate the environment. If the IR is emitted improperly through the dome or reflected into the lens, it negatively impacts image quality.

Common night mode issues

It is imperative that the dome remain free of debris and the camera is installed properly to achieve the best image quality. When viewing footage in night mode if the footage appears obscured it is most likely the result of one of the following scenarios:

Camera always in night mode

If your camera is always in night mode even where there is sufficient light in the environment the lux (light) value may need to be adjusted. If this is the case, reach out to Verkada Support for further assistance.

Environmental obstruction

If the camera is mounted too close to a wall, ledge, or light source, the image quality may be degraded due to IR reflection.

Recommendation. Ensure that cameras are mounted sufficiently far away from surfaces that may cause the IRs to reflect, such as light sources.

IR obstruction

If a first-generation Dome camera (D30 or D50) is operating in night mode when there is plenty of light, the IR sensor is likely obstructed by the camera housing.

To fix the obstructed light sensor, physically rotate the lens barrel assembly 180° so the sensor and IRs are visible through the camera case.

Example: Proper and improper orientation

Note: After rotating the lens barrel, the camera orientation may need to be changed in Command.

SEC-BODYTEMPCAM1 Camera Configuration Guide

**Please Note:  Cameras Default IP address is 192.168.1.121.  IP Utility can be downloaded off our website here

• Log into the cameras web interface on Internet Explorer (IE), default username is “admin” and default password are “1234567u”. Make sure to download the new plugin. 

Note: close ALL browser tabs while installing the plugin.

• Parameter Configuration (Configuration/Human Thermometer/Parameter Configure)

◦ Enable face detection

◦ Draw the area according to the real scenario, there is a maximum of 8 areas supported. We usually use one detection area to cover where people could potentially appear in, recommended distance is 9 to 16 feet (3-5 meters) for capturing.

• Leave the Display Trace Info at “Mode 1”

• Show Detection Area, can turn On or Off

• For Confidence Coefficient, we suggest keeping the default value (Mid). It’s for the face matching level with the built-in algorithm.

• Area ID is for the selected areas if you choose more then one main area, up to 8 totals. We suggest keeping this at one and focusing on the main point of entrance.

• For Face Pixel Minimum and Maximum, we suggest keeping the default value (70/1000). Only faces in this range will be detected.

• There are two different Snapshot Modes: 

◦ Timing: ‘upload interval’ is associated with ‘timing’, camera will upload one picture every 5 seconds (Suggested).

◦ Optical: ‘snapshot count’ is associated with ‘optical’, camera will upload the best face picture in 5 seconds.

• For Upload Image Interval we suggest leaving at 5 seconds (1-10 second range).

• For Yaw Degree, Tilt Degree, Pitch Degree and OSD Overlay Snapshot, we suggest keeping as default.

• FTP Upload Image Matting and FTP Upload Whole Image are if you are using the camera as a standalone device, no CMS or NVR, and wish to save the facial snaps to an FTP.

• Temperature Parameters

• Enable this field and leave all as DEFAULT except LENGTH UNIT and MOUNT DISTANCE

◦ IF YOU SWITCH TO FAHRENHEIT THE FIELDS STILL STAY AS DEFAULT (Except Length/Mount Distance, mentioned above)

◦ DEPENDING ON THE SELECTION OF “LENGTH UNIT” (METERS/FEET), ALL DISTANCE FIELDS WILL BE CONSIDERED IN THOSE UNITS!

[IMPORTANT] Set the mount distance according to the real installation, whose value should be the horizontal distance from the detection area to the camera. 

Hit ‘apply’ to save the settings.

• Face Alarm Linkage

IF SWITCHED TO FAHRENHEIT YOU MUST ADJUST “ALARM TEMPERATURE”, 99.5-100.5F (Default Celsius is 37.30)[

• [IMPORTANT] Thermal Mapping (Configuration/Human Thermometer/Thermal Mapping)

◦ This step is mainly for matching the thermal image with the visible image, which can ensure the measurement accuracy.  The Black Body device (Infrared Calibrator) MUST be in the Field of View of the thermal image.  The thermal image is a FIXED LENS and is a smaller field of view then the standard image.

• There are eight groups of ID, and each group ID contains three points. If using One area, then you do not have to set groups 2-8.

• Pick out three points that you can clearly see in the thermal image, mark them with point1, point2 and point3.

• Find the three locations of the three points in the visible image and mark them with the same point numbers associated with those in thermal image.

◦ Note: Suggested to choose three points far away from one another, so the triangle of can cover 70% of the image.

• Hit ‘apply’ to save the settings.

• Test if the rectangle can correctly surround the face, and perfect it by adjusting the three points.

• Thermal calibration (Configuration/Human Thermometer/Thermal Calibration)

• Install the blackbody properly where the camera can see it (within the thermal image). The blackbody needs to be powered on for at least 20 mins to reach to a stable temperature.

◦ The Infrared Calibrator will ALWAYS display in CELSIUS; the stable temperature is ~40C

• Enable.

• If you turn on ‘Display Area Info’, the blackbody (Infrared Calibrator) will also be shown with temperature on thermal image.

◦ Draw box around your calibrator

• Target Temperature: If using Celsius leave as 40C, if using Fahrenheit change to 104F (Default)

• For Distance, put the real installation distance between the camera and Black Body (Infrared Calibrator). No more then 9-16 feet (3-5 meters).  Distance is in Meters or Feet, depending what you selected under the Parameter Config menu.

• Keep the ‘Emission Rate’ as the default value.

• Hit ‘apply’ to save the settings.

SEC BODYTEMPCAM1 camera run off of POE output?

Yes it is, safe.

What are the minimum specs required to handle SEC-BODYTEMPCAM1?

For a single camera: i7 processing, at least 8GB of RAM.

From where is the temperature being scanned?

From a point in the middle of the forehead, the temperature is scanned, above the nose and in-between the eyes. If the camera captures a profile image it is using the skin around the earhole for temperature.  It is important to note that what is being scanned is skin temperature and not core temperature.

Should people be screened prior to entry?

The camera needs to be set within a controlled environment and cannot be installed outside. The calibrator isn’t weatherproof (IP66) and airflow, whether inside or out, could throw off the camera’s calibration.

If you need to screen people before entering the building, you would need to set up an enclosed tent to scan individuals. The camera can operate in both extreme heat and cold as long as no airflow would skew the results. If an individual is outside for an extended period, in the intense heat or cold without the opportunity to reregulate their temperature, the results might be slightly off, its recommended to wait 20-30 seconds before reading.

Need to wait when coming from outside for accurate reading?

Most of the time, there will not be any accuracy issues when getting scanned. If you have been out in the extreme heat or cold for an extended time you may want someone to wait roughly 30 seconds for their body to adjust to the environment. The camera is taking the skin temperature, which the human body keeps in check very efficiently.

What is your advice for poorly controlled environments?

If you are going to invest in the product, you will also need to invest in creating a controlled environment. If the environment is not controlled, you will not have accuracy. 

What effects an individuals’ temperature?

An individuals’ temperature will not read higher based on wearing a darker colored cap or clothing. The temperature scanned is the skin. The camera is using the face detection analytic to detect a human face then apply the algorithm built into the camera to display a temperature that is read from the epidermis of the forehead, or if it is a profile picture captured, the skin around the earhole is used.

If you’re wearing a mask, glasses, hood, hat, or all combined, if those two focal points aren’t blocked, then the camera can give a temperature reading.

Depending on the type of hat, for example, a forwards facing baseball cap pulled down entirely over the forehead can cause an individual not to be scanned. Another factor that could affect the scan is how the camera is mounted. The cameras must not be mounted higher than 8-feet. If the camera is wall-mounted and facing on a downward angle where a hat or hardhat is blocking the forehead, a solution would be to mount the cameras on a tripod to get a more direct shot.

Please watch the scenario video here for more info on this.

As for individuals who have been out in the extreme heat or cold for an extended time you may want to wait about 30 seconds for their body to adjust to the environment. The camera is taking the skin temperature, which the human body keeps in check very efficiently.

Two real-life examples of cold and hot temperatures:

In New York, the temperatures were averaging 45 degrees, and we had someone whose drive into work took about 20 minutes. While driving, they had the window rolled down and the air continually blowing into their face. They would walk from their car to the office and could feel their skin was cold. When walking into the office, they would get scanned, and their temperature would be between 96.9 and 97 Degrees. After waiting for about 60 seconds, they would rescan, and their temperature would average the mid 97 degrees.

In Arizona, where the temperature was over 100 degrees, we found that when someone was outside for a while, a cooling down about 20-30 seconds was necessary. Initially, their temperature registered at about 102, but after 20 seconds, it stabilized and showed their baseline temperature.

Something to keep in mind is that everyone is different. Two people who are excessively overheated may vary slightly in how fast their bodies regulated their temperature. One person might take about 10 seconds, while another person might take about 45 seconds. We are finding that the average is about 20-30 seconds for someone to regulate back to their baseline skin temperature.

Does the subject have to face the camera?

The subjects face must hit the 7% FOV (Field of View) mark of the camera to get an accurate reading. It is looking for two measurement points. The first point is in the middle of the forehead, roughly the area in-between the two eyes, near the nose, and if it captures a profile image, it is looking for the skin around the ear hole. The person has to be walking into the view of the camera and not away.

What is the ETA on the Fahrenheit firmware fix for US sites?

The firmware is currently available, giving the option for Fahrenheit or Celsius. The product leaves our warehouse with this latest firmware update, and the product comes defaulted to Fahrenheit & Distance comes defaulted to Feet with the option for metric units. 

What VMS’s are supported?

As of today 4/29/20, we know Axxon and EXACT are working on an integration. Other companies that have reached out but are not 100% confirmed yet. The SDK is available upon request but each is responsible for their integration. 

Without an NVR, will images be stored?

No. The camera will not store any images. 

Will the camera do face recognition without an NVR or computer?

The camera only does face detection. The CMS is what handles Facial Recognition if you aren’t running the CMS, face images will not be saved.

Will the camera track a person?

Tracking is based on facial detection. As soon as the 7% mark is met (7% is the required amount to get a temperature), it will read the face detection analytic and then apply the algorithm for the temperature display.  

Where are these cameras made?

The cameras are manufactured in China but are not affiliated with and are not OEM made products from Hikvision or Dahua. 

Can the camera just be connected to a LAN that has the NVR on it?

Yes, it can be stand alone.

What is the accuracy of the camera?

The accuracy of the camera is 0.54 Degrees Fahrenheit / 0.3 Degrees Celsius.   

Is this camera FDA approved for taking Body Temperature readings?

We are currently in the process of working on our 510k Certificate approval. 

Will the camera pick up the temp of a person who is walking away?

No. it is not designed to work this way.  Depending on the angle, it might be able to capture a profile and on occasion provide a temperature. 

Is there a max mounting height from the floor?

Yes, you may not exceed 8 feet from the floor when installing on a wall or ceiling mount.

How do you calibrate the calibrator?

Let the calibrator run for about 15-20 minutes. On the back panel of the calibrator, you will see a display. The display will be in Celsius regardless of the settings in the camera and CMS. Once the screen hits the 40-40.2 degrees, the unit has been calibrated. 

Can you set the camera and calibrator to shoot through a glass door?

 No, the camera and calibrator must be in sight of one another and cannot see through a glass window or door. There can be no glass between the devices and the subject. 

How far away does the calibrator need to be from the camera?

The camera and calibrator must be in view of each other and must not exceed 16 Feet. The recommended distance is 7-16ft. and the calibrator must be in the field of view of the THERMAL image

Does each camera require its own calibrator?

Yes, each camera requires its own calibrator. You cannot use two cameras with a single calibrator. The temperatures will not be accurate. 

Can you connect the CMS to a customer’s network?

Yes, the CMS can be connected to a customer’s pc and also run on a pc that is not on the network.

What does CMS stand for?

Central Monitoring Software

Is the CMS included with the purchase of camera & calibration device?

Yes, there is a free download that is available on our website. There is no charge. You can find it here

How many users can log into the CMS simultaneously?

The CMS (Central Management System) is stand-alone. You can install it on multiple computers, but there is a max of 10-user connections for each camera.  

CMS (Central Management Software) for PC

CMS for PC

This is the free CMS (Central Management Software) for the Secure Series for those using a PC. It will work with Secure Series Products.

Download IP Tool Here

If you are using a computer, will it record video without an NVR?

No, the closest workaround is to add the camera to the CMS. The CMS saves snapshots based on facial recognition. Please keep in mind that if the CMS doesn’t see specific points of a face to realize its a face (such as if the person is partially covered), you may still get a temperature read, but the face snap may not save. The CMS is only saving snapshots, not video.

How to use a cloud feature in the NVR menu?

The cloud feature will be implemented in the future. Once it is fully functional, we will have additional information posted!

How many hours of video can be stored on the NVR?

That will depend on the size of the drive you put in the unit and the number of cameras you have installed. The standard 4-channel unit can house a single hard drive bay, and can use drives ranging from 1-10 Terabytes. 

Can the NVR do the job of counting and temperature notification?

No.

Will camera send notifications automatically without an NVR?

If the camera is networked, email notifications can be sent out, even without an NVR. This will include a snapshot with the temperature for individuals who are above the threshold set. The camera also has two alarm outputs that can be utilized.

To use the app, InVid LIVE CMS, the camera would need to be added to the CMS, and the CMS would have to be kept open and running on a PC. If a temperature over the threshold is registered, it will send a push notification to the app.

Is the NVR required for sending email alerts?

No, the camera can send out email alerts. The 4/8/16 Channel NVR does not have the ability to send out email alerts while the 32 channel unit does, for over temperatures.

What type of notifications are triggered by high temp?

You can have an email notification with a snapshot of the individual and temperature range and also the option of one or two sirens if the temperature is above the threshold. 

Are there any onboard relays that could be triggered to send an alert

Yes, the camera has 2-alarm outputs. Power is needed, 12/24 volt AC/DC. Settings within the camera can be configured to trigger an alert when a temperature is over the threshold. 

Can the system send email and text alarms?

The system can send emails, it includes the picture of the scene with the temperature reading. Currently, there are no text alarms, but it is something we are looking at trying to implement.

Audible alarm once it detects a high temp?

The camera has two notification functions. The first is an email notification. The second is an alarm output trigger. The CMS that links to the camera does have an audible alarm if your computer is set up for sound. 

What is the warranty on the Secure Series products?

Camera: 1-Year

Calibrator: 1-Year

NVRs: 2-Year on Unit & 2-Years on Hard Drives

[VIVOCloud] What ports are used by the VIVOCloud Service?

Question

What ports are used by the VIVOCloud Service? 

Answer

The VIVOCloud Service uses below ports:

If your network firewall or router only allows connections to specific ports, please ensure that the ports listed above are not blocked from inside to outside; otherwise, this could cause issues when the NVR/Camera tries to connect to the VIVOCloud server. Below is a list of possible situations you might encounter if the ports are not properly opened.

Situation 1. Cannot enable the VIVOCloud service in the NVR

If port 1194 is not opened, the VIVOCloud service on the NVR will display an yellow ‘!’ icon.

Situation 2. Portal connection issues with NVR

If the port 3478 is not opened, VIVOCloud portal will show the device as “Connecting”.

Situation 3. Slow video connection

If the other ports are not opened, you may not see an image on VIVOCloud, or the image may load slowly.

Ensuring that the necessary ports are not blocked by your network’s firewall or router is crucial for establishing a successful connection between your NVR/Camera and the VIVOCloud server. By following the guidelines above and verifying that these specific ports are accessible, you can facilitate a smooth and efficient operation of your VIVOCloud devices.

[VIVOCloud] What can I do if I cannot access my NVR device through the VIVOCloud portal or mobile application?

Question

What can I do if I cannot access my NVR device through the VIVOCloud portal or mobile application?

Answer

VIVOCloud service allows you to remotely access your NVR/Camera videos remotely using the browser or application without the need opening ports or performing extra configurations. If you encounter any issues while using this service please be sure to check the following:

1. Check that you are using a compatible browser:

If you are trying to access the VIVOCloud webportal (service.vivocloud.com), be sure to use the Firefox browser. 

The VIVOCloud portal is only supported by this browser, if you use other browser you wont be able to access your NVR videos. You can find more information about browser compatibility in the VIVOCloud official webpage: https://www.vivotek.com/vivocloud#portal

2. Check that the VIVOCloud service is enabled

Before using the VIVOCloud service you need to enable it, in order to do so please go to your ND device configuration, under System > VIVOCloud service and be sure that the service is enabled. There should be a green mark next to the blue button, if you don’t see this mark you might need to click on the button to enable the service.

VIVOCloud service enabled:

VIVOCloud service disabled:

3. Check that the ND device was only added to one account:

Each ND device can only be registered to one VIVOCloud account, if you already added to another account and try it to add it into a new account you will find the following error:

If you want to delete the NVR from any other accounts because you want to add it to a new account you just need to disable the service in the configuration page and re-enable it, this will automatically remove the device from the original account. Please note that if the device was previously shared to another account it will also be removed. 

4. Network and configuration check

The VIVOCloud service server is very strict with its data management so you need to be sure that everything is properly configured otherwise you might not be able to enable the function on the ND. Before enable the service please be sure to verify the following: 

a) Time zone needs to match your access point time zone: 

b) ND IP must be properly configured and the device internal network access point needs to have access to WAN.

c) Be sure that your NVR is up to date and is using the latest firmware available

If you don’t know how to upgrade the device, feel free to check this documentation: 

d) Be sure that the service main ports are accessible, if the main ports used for server communication are being blocked you wont be able to add the device to your VIVOCloud account. Here is a document that explains in detail which ports are used by the service. 

If after following all the suggestions mentioned in this guide you are still unable to access your device using the VIVOCloud service please contact Technical Support for assistance.
