TUTORIAL- how to get iVMS-4500 Alarm Notifications working
hello everybody, I have been struggling for some time to get Alarm Notifications working WITHOUT UPNP
so you need your tablet or smartphone device and install app according to your platform:
smartphones
iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ivms-4500-lite/id441697527?mt=8
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mcu.iVMS&hl=en
tablets:
iOS:https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ivms-4500-hd/id444917386?mt=8
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mcu.iVMSHD&hl=en
if you are using DynDNS or NoIP you can skip this part
HiDDNS - Hikvision Domain Name System - http://www.hik-online.com/auth/login
you should create account first, confirm link you will receive by e-mail, and then in your camera or NVR find Serial Number
you need last 9 numbers of your serial number, write them down, you will need this number
go to: Advanced Configuration -> Network -> DDNS and choose your hostname
how to add your Camera or NVR to HiDDNS
step1: logon to http://www.hik-online.com
step2: go to Device Managment -> ADD
overview when device has been added
device status screen: hostname, serial number, IP Address
>The most important part< - router and camera port mapping/forwarding
ports have to be the same on both router and camera/nvr, so if you choose for example HTTP 10500 then you need to open TCP 10500 on your router
for "Server port" it is the same, if you choose Server Port: 10600 on your camera, you need to open TCP 10600 on your router
you don't need to forwarding HTTPS or RTSP ports, only HTTP Port and Server Port
whatever ports you choose it has to be 1 : 1 (camera port : router port), otherwise it won't work
go to: Advanced Configuration -> Network -> Port
test if you ports are forwarded correctly: http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
Add device to your iVMS-4500 app
go to Alarms
you should be able to turn on ALARM NOTIFICATIONS without any problem
Enable Norifications, by ticking the box "Notify Surveillance Center"
first test it with Basic Event - Motion Detection, and later you can test with Smart Event - Intrusion Detection, Line Crossing Detection etc.
I hope this will help you, please provide feedback in order to polish this tutorial
