Hello Community,
I have built a (seemingly-decent) 14 camera Hikvision (pure) system using a DS-7716N-E4/16P and various IP cameras. Most of the time we have the motion detection settings armed during off hours, however we frequently have events (scheduled and unscheduled) that cause unwanted motion events and email alerts.
I am also considering installing a traditional-ish (wired or wireless) security/fire system, and eventually environmental monitoring and automated building controls. Ideally, I would like to find a security panel that can be integrated with the NVR, such that when the security system is armed the NVR is recording and armed, and when the security system is disarmed the NVR behaves as it would during operating hours -- ultimately letting the security system keypad control alarm behavior of both the security and Hikvision systems. I would also like to wire up some zones/triggers on a security system against alarm outputs from the NVR (and vice versa).
Does anyone have experience or insight on the best way to go about it, and/or best security panels to integrate? Some of the wireless ones don't appear to have hardwired alarm ports (or enough of them), which I suspect are key to making this work.
Thanks in advance,
/b
