Hikvision Wifi IP cameras whose name ends with (W), for example DS-2CD2421G0-IW(2.0mm)(W), do not have a web interface, so their configuration is done through the Hik-Connect APP or the iVMS-4200 software.
Wifi Configuration via Hik-Connect
You only need to connect the camera to power without connecting it via Ethernet and use the APP to configure the wifi network it should connect to. The mobile phone must already be connected to that Wifi.
IMPORTANT: If you configure the camera using this method, the admin password activation is done automatically, with the password being the VERIFICATION CODE found on the camera’s sticker.
Configuration via iVMS-4200
Connect the camera via Ethernet, activate it with SADP, and set an IP for the wired connection. Then add it to iVMS-4200, and within the settings you can access the Wifi configuration.
To set the static IP for Wifi:
EVENT CONFIGURATION
To configure camera events, use the Hik-Connect APP. For example, for the DS-2DE2C200IWG/W(2.8mm)(W) camera, which has person detection events, you would activate it in this section.
- Detection Area - Set the detection zone
- Sensitivity - Event sensitivity
- Alarm Sound Mode - Volume the camera emits when the event occurs
- Detection Mode - If you want the event triggered by person detection or motion detection
If the camera also has Auto-Tracking Lite to follow the detected object, this can be enabled in the following section:
ONVIF ON THESE CAMERAS
The Onvif protocol on these cameras comes already enabled and the password will be
- The one used to activate it if done with SADP
- Or admin-Verification Code if it was not activated and was added directly to Hik-Connect
