Third party non-RTSP camera to HIkvisiion ds-7104ni-sn/p NVR

rascalsailor · January 16, 2018

Hi all - Am new to the forum - (and really impressed)

I have a Hikvision DS-7104ni-sn/p NVR

I was given a camera with the following specs:

Model Number: C146P36 960P IP Camera made by Ansjer

The info from the manufacturer says that it supports:

FTP/PPP OE/DHCP/DDNS/NTP/UPnP/ONVIF

and

Compression: H.264, AVI formats

I contacted their tech help and was further told that:

The camera does NOT support RTSP nor POE

I was trying to see if I could interface it to the DS-7104ni-sn/p NVR

I connected the camera to my LAN and can view it in IE at its IP address

I can also view it on an android device with TinyCam

This camera has a media port set to 34567

and the HTTP port is 80

It has a user name and password set

Camera IP is: 192.168.2.55

NVR IP is: 192.168.2.108

Now with the NVR also connected to the LAN and having logged in to the configuration page, I was hoping to be able to add the camera using the

Custom add IP camera under the protocol management menu;

But I get an error - see pic 2 below

I did read a number of references to adding third party cameras and it seems that I would need to choose the ONVIF protocol type. If I look under

the protocol mangement menu it seems to use RTSP under the stream - see pic below

now this camera doesn't support RTSP but this seems be used by ONVIF -

So is this a no-go with this camera and this NVR ?

(yes I intend to go with something newer, but while I have the camera, I thought I'd try it)

thanks all

regards

Russell
