ThatD2 months ago000Does the device need an account? Does it have a battery or does it need to be plugged in? How does it store its data?Show in original language (German)Surush Asilnya2 months ago+110 Helpful answerI was able to do some research and indeed the camera does not need a "Hikvision account" to operate. However, you do need a recorder to save the recording. In this case, the camera only serves as a camera. You would need a DVR like the following: - https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/hikvision-ids-7204huhi-m1pxt4a41alm-dvr-4-kanal-hd-tvi-netzwerk-videorecorder-nvr-netzwerkkamera-zub-54419184 and a hard disc like the following: - https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/wd-purple-4-tb-35-festplatte-23238346 The power is supplied via PoC (Power over Coaxial), which the DVR linked above can do. Otherwise, the camera must be supplied with power externally. Show in original language (German)Comment
