IP Camera Compatibility
The Vivo monitor is compatible with IP cameras that meet these minimum requirements:
- ONVIF supported
- Codec: H.264.
- Format: VGA (640x480)
Check IP camera compatibility with the Technical Department.
The cameras are managed from the monitors in the same manner as the panels, as explained on the
previous page.
They have the same IP address range as the panels,
the only difference being that there
is no door controlled by it (there are no relays for door release and, therefore, the
Door Release:
key) icon
is not displayed.
To use a standard IP camera with the Vivo monitor, an IP address within the range of the Block Entry panels
or Private Home Entry panels must be assigned. In the case of the former, the Block Entry panel, the camera
can be used by all monitors in the block. In the case of the latter, the Private Home Entry panel, the camera
can only be used by the monitors in that private home.
Cameras cannot be confi gured as General Entry.
When the camera is not to be integrated into the LYNX system, an IP address outside the range of those
used by the LYNX system or a block number not used in the installation can be assigned. For example:
if the installation has 7 blocks, numbered from 1 to 7, the cameras would be confi gured with an address
corresponding to block 99 so as not to be detected by the Vivo monitors.
Given that all cameras are connected to the same physical network, they can all be managed by a standard
Digital Video Recording (DVR) network.
Notes:
- The monitor detects the camera during start-up and once every hour. The camera must be switched on
when the monitor is started up. If the camera is switched on after the monitor has started up, you must
wait 1 hour for the monitor to update and detect it.
- The camera will be displayed in the list of panels by its IP address, although a name can be given to each
camera using its corresponding tool (the name of the camera in the web server is not always compatible
with ONVIF).
- The monitor has a timer set to 30 minutes to automatically disconnect from the IP cameras. This prevents
system resources from being used, which could lead to instability.
- It is possible to connect multiple monitors simultaneously with the same IP camera.
1.2.2 Calling the Property Management Station PMS (Guard unit)
When the PMS icon is pressed in the
Start Menu
of the monitor, the
Name
of all the Property Management
Stations will be displayed, (
Name:
the description defi ned in each one of them).
Note: The PMS icon must have been previously enabled by the installer.
The guard units available are those that can call this home, if they are online and in a
Mode
other than
OFF at the time of the call and belong to the same block, several blocks including the monitor block or
general PMS.
There is a scroll bar (downwards) to view all of the PMS. This bar is displayed when there are too many
to be displayed on one screen.
