In order for Alarmhandler to detect activity in your estate you need to connect IP cameras to Alarmhandler. In the app, tap + on the main screen and choose “Ip camera”.
A short camera setup guide is shown informing you to
- connect the camera to your local network, more info about this here
- ensure your phone is connected to the same router as the camera is connected to
- setup the camera configuration, check this info
After the setup guide has finished, you’ll notice a new camera has been added om he main screen. The system has created a mail account for your camera on the Alarmhandler servers. Tap the cog icon to the right of the new camera to see the email address created for the camera and make sure you upload recordings to this address when you are configuring the camera.
It’s a good idea to give the camera a name corresponding to the location where you’ve placed it. The camera details also show when the last report to Alarmhandler was received from the camera. This field would be empty for a newly created camera account.
