Product Documentation

Why Choose This Camera

95% Fewer False Alarms with AcuSense AI

Advanced deep learning distinguishes humans and vehicles from possums, kangaroos, and pets, reducing false alerts by up to 95% compared to standard motion detection.

Active Deterrence Stops Crime Before It Happens

Integrated strobe light and 95dB speaker automatically warn intruders with visual and audio alerts, preventing theft rather than just recording evidence.

Superior Low-Light Performance for Australian Conditions

Large 1/1.8-inch sensor delivers colour imaging down to 0.003 lux with 30-metre infrared range, capturing clear 4K footage in challenging Australian lighting.

Built to Withstand Australian Weather Extremes

IP67 weatherproof rating and -30°C to 60°C operational range handles coastal humidity, western Sydney heat, and Tasmanian winters reliably.

Where It Fits Best

Front Verandah Package Theft Protection

Monitor deliveries with instant alerts, communicate with couriers via two-way audio, and deter porch pirates with automatic strobe light warnings after delivery.

Driveway and Vehicle Licence Plate Monitoring

Vehicle-specific detection eliminates neighbour traffic alerts whilst capturing licence plates within 17.8 metres, perfect for standard Australian residential driveways and small car parks.

Backyard Perimeter and Pool Area Safety

Human-only detection filters out possums and pets whilst monitoring pool access after hours, with two-way audio for immediate family communication.

Small Business Storefront After-Hours Security

Automated LiveGuard mode triggers strobe and audio warnings when humans detected outside business hours, deterring break-ins before damage occurs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this camera work with standard PoE switches?
Yes, it supports 802.3af PoE (Class 3) with maximum 10W power consumption. Any standard PoE switch or injector will work fine.
Can I use UK or European firmware on my Australian camera?
No, stick with Australian firmware from Hikvision AU. UK/EU firmware may have different features and can cause compatibility issues even though file names look similar.
How do I disable the strobe light and audio alarm?
Access the camera's web interface and go to the event settings. You can disable both the strobe light and audio warning independently, or adjust duration from 15 to 60 seconds.
What size SD card can I use for local recording?
The camera supports microSD/SDHC/SDXC cards up to 256GB. Use high-endurance cards for continuous recording and enable encryption for added security.
Why is my footage blurry or ghosting at night?
Turn off WDR in the camera settings and increase your bitrate to at least 8192 kbps for 8MP. Also ensure your shutter speed isn't too slow (avoid 1/25s for moving subjects).
Does this camera need an NVR or can it record by itself?
It can record directly to an SD card without an NVR. However, an NVR provides better management, longer storage, and easier playback across multiple cameras.
How do I ensure video settings match between camera and NVR?
Always configure settings through the NVR interface, not directly on the camera. Ensure main stream settings for continuous and event recording are identical to avoid playback freezing.
What's the warranty coverage in Australia?
3-year back-to-base manufacturer warranty on Hikvision cameras. Hard drives have separate 3-year coverage, and warranty doesn't cover incorrect installation or mishandling damage.Claude can make mistakes. Please double-check cited sources.
