3.2. Camera activation
A PC or MAC is required to set up the camera. The computer and the camera must be on the same
network. The SADP tool is required for initial camera setup. It can be downloaded from the link
below by typing SADP into the search bar.
https://www.hikvision.com/europe/support/tools/hitools/
Fill in the search bar with SADP and click the link to download the file.
The SADP software locates Hikvision devices that are online on the network. It displays device
information, can activate a selected device, edit the network parameters of the device, and reset the
device password.
NOTE: On Windows machines, the SADP tool can display a .dll missing error on startup. This can be
resolved by installing vcredist_x86.exe:
https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

In the SADP tool search the network for available devices:
Once the SADP tool is open any cameras that have not been setup will appear as Inactive.
•To activate the camera, select the inactive camera and the Activate the Device window will
appear on the right.
•Create a password for the camera.
•NOTE: Please keep in mind that this password is only used for the camera setup and Web
Interface and not for the Parklio™PMS.

NOTE: If a static IP address is required, the SADP tool can be used to configure a static IP
address and network parameters by disabling DHCP and entering network parameters.
Click the refresh button to refresh the SADP tool.
