Adding and Configuring the CV4IP16

If this CheckVideo device will be monitored by a central station, please contact the central station for a username and

password on their existing CheckVideo account. The central station will add the device to their account.

The following items can be found within the box:

•CV4IP16- 8/12TB

•CV4IP16 power supply

•Mouse for local display

•Terminal blocks for digital I/O

Items not included in box:

•CheckVideo IP Camera Validation tool (found at

www.checkvideo.com/support)

•A display monitor

•HDMI cable or BNC cable for monitor

The CV4IP16 has connectors on both sides. The primary connectors can be found on the back panel. Only connectors

shown with a red arrow are active at this time. Other connectors are reserved for future use.

To install the Gateway, make the following connections to the CV4IP16:

•Ethernet cable to the router. Note: Do not connect the CV4IP to a POE port on a router/switch. Power is

provided by the included power supply. Providing power via a POE port to the WAN connection on the device

will damage the Gateway.

•HDMI (preferred) or CVBS monitor to CV4IP16.

•Provided power supply to power outlet.

If you plan to use a local monitor, make sure that it is plugged in to the Gateway before it is powered up. With the

monitor connected, the Gateway will display the “awaiting configuration from portal” message. You will see this image

on the screen until the device is added to the CheckVideo portal.

Camera Preparation:

Open a web browser and log in to the CheckVideo portal (portal.checkvideo.net). From the Navigation bar, select

Devices>Add a Device. Enter the CV4IP16 serial number/MAC ID, beginning with “00210F”. The number can be found

on the device product sticker. Enter a Device Name and click the Test Device button. Upon receipt of the “success”

message, you can continue the set-up process. Click the Device Name from the System Map to begin the firmware

update process. One started, firmware update should take no more than 10 minutes.

In preparation for adding cameras to the CV4IP16, you should complete the following steps:

•Like other CheckVideo devices, the CV4IP16 requires DHCP. This includes setting a DHCP address reservation for

the CV4IP.

•The IP cameras require an IP address reservation. Working with the network administrator on site, the cameras

must be assigned either a static IP address or a DHCP address reservation. This is critical because if the camera’s

IP address changes, the CV4IP will lose connectivity to the camera. To resolve the issue, you will be required to

reconfigure the connections via the Devices>Configure IP Gateway page. Instructions for this can be found

below.

•Using the IP camera’s management tools, adjust the camera’s Video Settings to work with the CV4IP16. The

parameters are:

oBitrate to less than 4Mbps

oFrame rate to a multiple of 5 fps to a maximum of 30 fps

oGOV length to 2X the frame rate OR i-frame interval of 2 seconds

oResolution up to 8mp

oProfile –Main (preferred) or High

The optimal settings are 4MP resolution, 10 fps, 20 GOV and a bitrate of 2500. If you are adding cameras with

different settings, you may wish to use the IP Gateway calculator to enter channel specific settings. This calculator will

help maximize the available channels on the device. Just reach out to support@checkvideo.com for the latest version of

the calculator.

CheckVideo Validation Tool:

If your camera’s management tools do not display the options to change all of the settings above, you may find the

CheckVideo Validation Tool helpful. The tool will assist with updating multiple camera settings at once and confirm

camera compatibility. The tool can be found at www.checkvideo.com/Support under Camera Validation Tool for IP

Gateway. Click on the link to download the tool and run “CheckVideo_Camera_ValidationTool.msi” file for installation.

•How to Find Cameras on the Network: The tool allows the user to enter the ONVIF user name and password for

multiple cameras on the network. Connect your computer to the same network as the IP cameras. Once

connected to the camera network, launch the tool. It prompts for a user name and password, defaulting to User

Name: admin and Password: admin

•To discover cameras, enter the correct ONVIF user name and password for cameras on your network and click

“Find Cameras”. If there are different username/password combinations enter each in turn and click Find

Cameras to discover additional cameras. If the camera does not support ONVIF or if ONVIF discovery is blocked

by the network, you can use the + icon to add cameras by IP address or RTSP URL.

•Validation Tool User Guide: How to Steps

oOnce cameras are discovered, this Tool will help test compatibility and configure new and existing 3rd

party cameras. Detailed instruction for how to use the Validation Tool can be found here: User Guide

ONVIF Device Manager:

An alternative to CheckVideo’s IP Camera Validation tool is ONVIF Device Manager. If your camera’s management tools

do not display the option to change all of the settings required by CheckVideo and you were not successful changing

those settings with the Camera Validation tool , you may find the ONVIF Device Manager helpful. You can install this

tool from http://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/. Once installed, start the program and enter the 3rd party camera’s

admin access credentials in to the ONVIF Device Manager interface. You can get these credentials from the camera

manufacturer.

Select the camera from the list of visible cameras on the left side of the screen. Click on the Video Streaming link.

Go to the Settings page where you can set the Resolution, Frame Rate and GOV length values as required by the

CheckVideo CV4IP. Select Apply to save these settings.

Adding Cameras to CV4IP Gateway:

Now that the camera settings are updated, associate the CV4IP to cameras on the same network. From the CheckVideo

portal, go to Devices>Configure IP Gateway:

•Select the CV4IP16 from the drop-down menu

•Enter the ONVIF credentials for the camera. If you have more than one set of ONVIF credentials for the cameras

you wish to add, use those credentials that apply to the majority of cameras to be added.

•Click Discover Cameras. At this point, all cameras visible on the CV4IP16’s network will appear at the top of

Assign IP Cameras image carousel. The default camera name is created using the local/internal IP address of

that camera.

•If a background image could be obtained via the ONVIF credentials, the camera view will appear. If not, a blue

box will appear. This does not mean that there is anything necessarily wrong. It is possible that the background

image did not complete in time or that the camera does not support background image.

•Click a thumbnail within the image carousel to begin camera assignment. The camera details will appear below.

It is at this point that you can rename the camera. If you have not updated your camera settings, you will

receive a reminder to do this before you continue. Click the Assign button. The CheckVideo portal will let you

know if you are successful.

•Should the camera assignment fail because the CV4IP16 cannot configure the RTSP connection, a warning

message will appear:

First, confirm that your camera’s Video Settings have been adjusted to meet the CV4IP16 requirements. Next

enter the requested RTSP information for your camera:

oRTSP Username (if required by camera)

oRTSP Password (if required by camera)

oRTSP URL

If the RTSP URL does not populate, look for it within ONVIF Device Manager. If you are unable to find it, please

refer to your camera manufacturer’s documentation. Once the RTSP details are populated, click Verify to

complete assignment of camera to the CV4IP16.

Once all cameras have been assigned to the CV4IP16, go to Devices>Configure Device. Select the CV4IP from the

dropdown and begin setting the Event zones, schedule and notifications for each camera. Remember to Save at

the completion of each camera’s configuration.

Local Video Matrix Setup:
