    Don't see your model? If it supports ONVIF, it almost certainly works. Older firmware may need updating for full ONVIF support.

    Getting Connected

    Plug the AI Edge Analytic Box into the same network as your Hikvision cameras, ensure ONVIF is enabled in the camera's network settings (it's sometimes off by default on older models), and your cameras appear in the dashboard automatically. Most setups take 10–15 minutes. No port forwarding or DDNS required.

    Why Connect Hikvision to AtomVision

    Your Hikvision hardware is solid. AtomVision adds the cloud layer it's missing.

    Cloud Backup

    Automatic offsite recording. If someone steals your Hikvision NVR, your footage is already safe in the cloud.

    Remote Access Without Port Forwarding

    No more messing with DDNS or opening ports on your router. Secure cloud access from any browser or mobile device.

    AI Analytics

    Add cloud-based people counting, vehicle detection, and unusual activity alerts to your existing Hikvision cameras.

    Multi-Site Management

    Manage Hikvision cameras across 100+ locations from a single dashboard. Perfect for franchise and retail chains.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does AtomVision replace Hik-Connect?

    No. AtomVision works alongside Hik-Connect, not as a replacement. You can continue using Hik-Connect for local access while AtomVision adds cloud recording, AI analytics, and multi-site management on top of your existing Hikvision setup.

    Which Hikvision cameras are compatible with AtomVision?

    Any Hikvision camera or NVR with ONVIF Profile S support works with AtomVision. This includes the popular DS-2CD series IP cameras, DS-7600 and DS-8600 NVRs, and most models manufactured after 2015. Older firmware may need updating for full ONVIF support.

    Do I need to change my Hikvision camera settings?

    In most cases, you just need to ensure ONVIF is enabled in your Hikvision camera's network settings. The AI Edge Analytic Box auto-discovers cameras on your network. Some older Hikvision firmware versions may need a quick update to enable full ONVIF Profile S/G/T support.

    Can I connect Hikvision NVRs or just individual cameras?

    Both. You can connect individual Hikvision IP cameras directly, or connect through your existing DS-7600 or DS-8600 NVR. Connecting through the NVR is often simpler if you already have one set up, but direct camera connections give you more granular control.

    Ready to cloud-enable your Hikvision cameras?

    Most Hikvision setups take about 10–15 minutes. No port forwarding, no headaches. Older firmware may need a quick ONVIF update.
