hikvision and reolink ip camera enable motion

[Keyboard]

Just for the record, I also tried getting my HikVision NVR to do motion detection recording of a ReoLink RLC-410. I was not successful, even though the NVR allowed me to enable it and define the areas of motion capture. No amount of movement triggered the recording. The RLC-410 apparently is not sending the proper signal to the NVR (just a guess).

The RLC-410 was added via the ONVIF protocol (the only way I could get the NVR to accept the camera).

The RLC-410 apparently is not sending the proper signal to the NVR (just a guess).

For ONVIF-connected cameras, you can determine if the camera generates ONVIF events for motion detection using the very good Windows open-source tool ONVIF Device Manager from sourceforge.net
Give ODM some logon credentials for the camera, and it will give you loads of info about the camera.
The 'ONVIF port' is shown in the URL at the bottom of the Identification page.
See if the camera generates motion events on the Events page.

Under events it did show isMotion:true

 

[alastairstevenson]

That looks like 'DeviceCapabilities'.
Did you see any motion 'True' events in the 'Events' page?

I couldn't get it to work. In the end I sent mine back. It was coming up with the motion true events. I could set the area and anything but still no good. I contacted reolink and they said it should work.

How do you set up the motion recording of Reolink camera and Hikvision NVR?
I got motion recording work of Reolink camera and Hikvision NVR via ONVIF.
