To adjust the light settings on your Hikvision ColorVu hybrid camera, you need to access it through the NVR’s web interface. Follow these step-by-step instructions:
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Access the NVR’s Web Interface:
- Open a web browser on a computer that is connected to the same network as your NVR.
- Enter the IP address of the NVR in the address bar (for example, http://192.168.1.100).
- Log in using your NVR’s username and password. The default username is typically admin.
-
Navigate to Camera Configuration:
- Once logged in, click on the Configuration tab located in the top menu.
- In the left-hand menu, select Camera Management.
- Find the list of connected cameras. If you're unable to log into the cameras at this point, go to Network > Advanced Settings > Other and enable Virtual Host.
-
Access the Camera’s Web Interface:
- Locate the ColorVu camera that you want to configure.
- Click on the Remote Configuration or Connect link/button next to the camera. This action will open a new window or tab displaying the camera’s web interface.
- If prompted, log in using the camera’s credentials (the default username is usually admin, and the password is commonly the same as the NVR or was set during the initial configuration).
-
Configure the Light Settings:
- Within the camera’s web interface, go to the Configuration section.
- Navigate to the Image or Video/Audio settings.
- Look for Supplement Light Settings or Lighting Settings.
- Adjust the Light Mode (options may include Auto, Manual, Off) along with other related settings such as intensity and scheduling as needed.
