Hikvision Intercom Setup Guide (v1.0) September 2017

2 Introduction
This guide will take you through the steps to setup a Hikvision Video Intercom system for a single dwelling with 2 x Indoor
Room Stations and 1 x Villa Door Station. This assumes that the Intercom devices are at factory default settings and need to
be activated.
3 Equipment
1 x KAD606 – Video/Audio Distributor
2 x DS-KH8301-WT – Indoor WiFi station
1 x DS-KV8102-IM – Villa Door Station
1 x PC/Laptop running iVMS4200 2.4.5.X
4 Pre-Requisites
4.1 Network Worksheet
Before we begin we need to plan out our network IP addresses to be assigned to each of the intercom components to provide
connectivity. Any IP subnet can be used, however note that there can only be a maximum of 9 villa door stations in one
system, so leave enough address space to cater for this if required.
In our example we are going to use 192.168.20.0/24 subnet as per the table below.

4.2 Firmware
The minimum firmware release for the intercom system is v1.4.0 Build 170302. Please ensure this version of firmware is
installed before proceeding with the remaining setup. To obtain the firmware please email us at
support@diysecuritycameras.com.au. Note we can only supply firmware to our customers.
4.3 iVMS4200 Software
You will need to install the iVMS4200 software version 2.4.2.55 build161209 onto your laptop. This is required for this
version of the firmware.
4.4 PC/LAPTOP
A Windows PC/Laptop is required to run the iVMS4200 software to programme and setup the Intercom system. The PC in
our example should be connected directly to the KAD LAN2 port. Initially the default factory IP address for the Intercom
devices are: 192.0.0.64/24 (255.255.255.0) and 192.0.0.65/24 (255.255.255.0)
To allow the PC to communicate with the Intercom devices, configured the PC with a primary IP address of 192.168.20.150
(in our example) and a secondary IP address of 192.0.0.250. If you are not sure how to setup a secondary IP address, Google
is your friend.

6 Activate Intercom Devices
All Intercom devices need to be activated (ie with a strong password) before being configured for use. Activation can be
done via the iVMS4200 software tool.
Notes around the activation password
a. Please make this a strong password.
b. The activation password is the main admin configuration/setup password.
c. This password is need to do any configuration on the Intercom devices via the iVMS4200 software.
d. This password is different to the indoor station “admin” password, which can be set separately.
Plug in all the Intercom devices as per above diagram and they will booted up and power on. When powered on they will
appear at the bottom in “Online Devices” section of the iVMS4200 software.

7 Configuration and Setup of Intercom Devices
We have successfully activated all our devices and assigned IP addresses. We are now ready to add the devices to the
iVMS4200 software client and configure each individual component. The following section will configure each Intercom
device as per our worksheet details in 4.1. Important things to note in our configuration:
a. The Door Station provides our SIP server.
b. The Door Station provides our time synchronisation.
c. The Door Station is linked to the Master Indoor Station.
d. The Master Indoor Station then links to any Extension Indoor Stations within the system.
e. To use the Hik-Connect app the Master Indoor Station MUST have a WiFi option.
7.1 Door Station
1. Select Encoding Device/Door Station and click “Add to Client”
2. In the popup box enter Nickname, admin as the user id and the admin password, and click add.
3. If successful the door station should now appear in the “Device for Management” section ready for
configuration.

4. Highlight the “MainDoor” device just added and click on “Remote Configuration”.
5. Navigate to System->Time. Setup the time using NTP. Note the Door Station is responsible to keep our time
synchronised. In our example we use the gateway address because it is an NTP server, however your setup
may vary. Note the NTP server must be entered as an IP address and not a domain name. If unsure you can
use public NTP servers like Google (time.google.com / 216.239.35.12).
6. Select “Enable DST” and set the appropriate start/end time and DST bias.
7. Click Save and the Synchronization.
