The last step above will add the device and direct you to its device detail page), where you will also need to:
Finally, configure the camera itself to send messages to your hub:

) as the destination/
(a single forward slash) if prompted for a URL or pathMotion detection is exposed via the motion
attribute on added devices. This can be used in the same way as a regular motion sensor in any app. This attribute is applicable only to basic motion, not Smart Events, in the HIKVISION configuration.
Smart Events (including intrusion, line crossing, etc.) and other camera events are exposed as button events — a pushed
event for a certain button number:
Btn. No. | Event |
---|---|
1 | Line Crossing Detection |
2 | Video Tampering |
3 | Hard Drive Full |
4 | Hard Drive Error |
5 | Scene Change Detection |
6 | Face Detection |
7 | Intrusion Detection |
8 | Unattended Baggage Detection |
9 | Object Removal Detection. |
10 | Alarm Input |
Another way to figure out what button events correspond to what events is to watch Logs as these Smart Events are triggered on the HIKVISION device, or check the device Events page for the camera device afterwards.
The cameras must be connected to the same LAN as your Hubitat Elevation hub (in particular, note that HIKVISION NVRs may create a separate subnet that is not accessible to your hub)
If you do not receive events on your hub, verfiy configuration in your Hikvision device as noted in Adding Device.
