In the Pierre system, cameras can be easily integrated into the platform, providing users with the ability to view live video feeds directly through the Pierre app.
• Digital Cameras: For digital cameras, the live video feed is streamed seamlessly through the app, allowing users to monitor their environment in real-time.
• Analog Cameras: If the system includes analog cameras, Pierre can pull the video stream from an NVR (Network Video Recorder), making it easy to manage and view footage from older camera systems.
This flexibility ensures that users can incorporate both modern and legacy camera systems into the Pierre ecosystem for comprehensive video monitoring
How to check is the camera strem live?
Functionality check is to use the VLC player to see if the image (video) comes. VLC player will receive the signal through the DVR device. If the image is obtained, we approach the integration of the camera.
How to put camera public outside from local network?
If it is necessary to receive the signal outside the local network, a port forward to the main router's internal IP address of the camera is required. The public IP address is easily found via google by typing "my IP address".
Is there a playback option in the PIERRE app?
Unfortunately, the playback option is not currently available in the PIERRE app.
How do cameras connect to the Controller?
Cameras are connected to the Pierre system either via NVR (for analog cameras) or through the network (IP cameras). There is no need to run cables directly to the Controller.
Can analog cameras be connected directly to PIERRE?
No, analog cameras must be connected to an NVR, and the video stream from the NVR can then be integrated into the PIERRE app.
Do the cameras need to be connected to the Controller?
Cameras are internet-based devices and cannot be directly connected to the Controller.
Which cameras can be integrated into the system?
Any IP camera that supports the RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) protocol. The camera must be externally accessible, with a static IP address.
What recording options are available for cameras?
The best solution is to use a network video recorder (NVR) system. The cameras connect to this hub.
What cables should be used for camera wiring?
The PIERRE system does not require direct wiring for cameras, as they connect to the NVR system via the internet or the local network. The NVR handles the recording, and the recorded videos can be viewed through the NVR. The Pierre system only integrates live camera feeds.
Should all camera cables go to the control panel (electrical switchboard)?
There is no need for wiring directly to the PIERRE system, as the NVR connects to the cameras via the internet or the local network. The NVR handles the recording, and the recorded videos can be accessed through it. The Pierre system only integrates live camera feeds.
