How to add smart doorbell to Hikvision NVR?

Adding smart doorbell camera is very simple, both smart doorbell and NVR should use the same IP network range, hence the NVR can discover the smart doorbell. For example, the NVR’s IP address is 192.168.2.10, then your smart doorbell’s IP address should be in the range of 192.168.2.1 – 192.168.2.255.

Prior to adding the smart doorbell to any other NVR and NAS, VMS as well, you should enable RTSP stream and set a new RTSP password to enable and secure local video streaming.

Now it’s time to add smart doorbell to your NVR/DVR, open the “menu”, select “camera”, then click on “Custom adding”, just input your smart doorbell’s network information as shown below: As you can see in the figure above, I have included the following information:IP camera address: 192.168.2.107
