View your Dahua NVR from your Hikvision NVR! Here is how to add a Dahua IP Camera connected to a Dahua NVR to a Hikvision NVR so you can view both systems from one interface. This can be useful if you have two sytems or monitoring two locations with different systems.
Login to the Hikvision NVR and go to Configuration -> Camera Management
Click Custom Protocol and fill in the following boxes:
Name the protocol after the camera you are adding.
Choose RTSP, Auto and Port 554.
In the stream path, enter the following: /cam/realmonitor?channel=10&subtype=1
10 in this case is the Front Door Camera, 1 is the Sub-stream. Change to 2 for the main stream.
Click OK.
Click Add, or Modify a offline camera. Enter the IP address of the Dahua NVR, Choose the protocol you created earlier, Enter the management port as port 80, enter the username and password for the Dahua NVR and click OK.
Refresh the webpage and your camera should be online and viewable from the Hikvision NVR. Notice the Management Port automatically switched to 554.
