Add Security Inspection Device by Device ID

For the security inspection devices supporting ISUP, you can add them by specifying the predefined device ID, ISUP login password, etc. This is an economic choice when you need to manage a security inspection device in the public network without a fixed IP address.

  • Make sure the security inspection devices you are going to use are correctly installed and connected to the network as specified by the manufacturers. Such initial configuration is required in order to be able to connect the devices to HikCentral Professional via network.

  • The devices to be added should be activated. Refer to Create Password for Inactive Device(s) for detailed operation about activating devices.

  1. In the top left corner of Home page, select > Basic Management > Device.
  2. Click Device and Server > Security Inspection Device.
  3. Click Add to enter the Add Security Inspection Device page.
  4. Select Security Inspection System, Analyzer or Walk-Through Metal Detector as the device type from the drop-down list.
  5. Select Hikvision ISUP Protocol as the access protocol.
    Note:

    To allow device registration via ISUP, you need to go to > Basic Management > System > Network > Device Access Protocol and switch on Allow ISUP Registration.

  6. Enter the required information, including device ID, ISUP login password, and device name.
    CAUTION:

    The password strength of the device can be automatically checked. We highly recommend you change the password of your own choosing (using a minimum of 8 characters, including at least three kinds of following categories: upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, and special characters) in order to increase the security of your product. And we recommend you change your password regularly, especially in the high security system, changing the password monthly or weekly can better protect your product.

    Proper configuration of all passwords and other security settings is the responsibility of the installer and/or end-user.
