I was recently able to set up some Hik cube cams to set off BI alerts using the cameras' PIR sensors (thanks to a link from fenderman). This included setting up an Alarm Output in the HikV CP under Advanced Config > Basic Event > Alarm Output (tab), then selecting that as the "Linkage Method > Other Linkage > Trigger Alarm Output" at the bottom of the particular alarm's settings page.
The problem I have with the turret and bullet cams is that there is no "Alarm Output" option anywhere I can find, so despite the fact that there is the option to select "Linkage Method > Other Linkage > Trigger Alarm Output" at the bottom of the particular alarms' settings pages (Video Tampering and Intrusion Detection in my case), there is nowhere to set these outputs up, and therefore I can't get the trigger through to BI.
There are a couple of different firmware versions I'm working with, but one is the same as the cube cams (5.2.5) but still doesn't have the tabs for Alarm Input and Alarm Output under Basic Event.
Is there a way to get these triggers through to BI? (I take it from previous threads that this wasn't possible, and am hoping that BI can now be configured to do this.)
Thanks!
