Tag: Hikvision Alarms

For this example, we are using model DS-PKA-WLM

To be able to use arming and disarming via code it is necessary to have a keypad (DS-PKA-WLM). Within the panel configuration, the password will be assigned to the user.
Go to: User Management – User – Add

To create the user it is necessary to fill in the requested information.
The password to access the panel and the keypad must be different, the keypad password can only be numerical.

It is also necessary to assign a partition to which this user will correspond or have access with these credentials, as well as the user’s permissions.

The panel supports a silent alarm code, this is generated by default when creating a keypad password for a user. This threat code will be + 1 or – 1 of the original password, example: if the password is 123456 the silent alarm code will be valid as 123455 or 123457. This password will allow disarm the alarm system while at the same time it will send a notification to the application to be able to take corresponding actions.

The article explains how to create the application password to be able to send emails.

Within the account settings, select “security” and then the option “Application Passwords”.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Two-step verification must be activated, if this option is not enabled, it is necessary to carry out the activation process before proceeding.

Once the “Application passwords” option is selected, it will ask to enter the email password to continue

It is necessary to select the type of application for which it will be used, in this case “Other (custom name)” is selected.

In this way you can place the name of the application, for example, issues in this case the name “DVR” is used, you can use whatever the user wants, it is just an identifier.

When you press the next button, the application password to be used will appear, the 16-character password that is in yellow are the ones to be used.

Once these characters have been registered, enter the recorder configuration to configure the mail and place the corresponding data

Sender: Sender alias
Sender’s address: email that will be used to send the email
SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
SMTP port: 587
Username: email that will be used to send the email
Password: previously created application password

It is possible to receive notifications from the alarm detectors by email, for this it is necessary to enter the IP of the alarm panel through a browser. Within the configuration, enter the option “Communication parameters” in the sub-menu of “Email video of the event”, and fill in the data.
This may vary depending on the email service provider, in case of using Gmail you need to create an application password as shown in the article “Hikvision – Sending emails through Gmail”
After filling in the data, you have to save the changes and do the communication test.

If communication exists the following message will appear:

You will receive an email to your inbox

With the following message:

Now once a detector is activated a notification will be sent to your email

For example image below:

Two cameras can be linked to the alarm panel, you can have video when a sensor is activated. To enable this feature access your panel through its IP address via browser.

We recommend using this feature only with IP cameras, if you add a camera that is linked to a DVR/NVR adding the IP from the DVR/NVR we can’t guarantee its operation, it is only necessary to select the channel to be added, as shown in the following screen.

Once the device is added, the connection status will appear as connected.

To link it to one of the detectors, you have to enter the “Wireless device” tab in the Zone sub-menu, here in the zone (device) that you want to add the camera you have to click on the gear icon.

In the option “Video channel number …” select the channel of the added camera.

This will enable app notifications on your mobile devices.

The alert corresponding to the type of sensor will appear, and you can click on the “View” button.

And with this, the image from the camera will be displayed.

Some models of Hikvision alarm panels are compatible with SIM cards and can communicate with monitoring centers or notify a mobile device directly. For this, it is necessary to configure the APN according to the contracted company, (for this example a Telcel SIM was used).

The “Message notification” section is where you add the information of the device in which you want to receive notifications. Enter the phone number, select the SMS option and activate the types of notifications you want to receive.

Once an event or sensor is activated, it will be received by means of an SMS message to the phone that has been configured.

To add remote control it is necessary to access the panel through the Hik-connect application. On the bottom we have the options for zones and wireless devices, click on the “plus” icon.

When the camera option selects the option “Add remote control”.

The following screen will appear indicating that it is necessary to press any button on the control.

Once the device is detected, the application will ask us to give the control a nickname.

We can verify that the control was added on the “Wireless Device” tab.
