Using Non-AI Cameras
The AI features available with the NVR can be used with non-AI cameras. These features
include, Face Detection, Face Recognition, and certain IVS rules such as tripwire and intrusion.
People Counting is only available if a compatible AI camera is applied to the system.
When using a non-ai camera on the NVR, make sure to enable the AI by Device option in the
Type menu for each compatible feature. A Smart Plan may not be available if using AI features
with a non-AI camera. For more information on how to enable each feature, please refer to the
information provided in this section.
Set a Smart Plan
A smart plan acts as the “master switch” for all AI features. A Smart Plan may not be available if
using AI features with a non-AI camera. AI features such as IVS and Heat Map can be used
simultaneously, however, Face Detection and People Counting will have to be used separately.
A smart plan must be enabled for an AI feature to be activated.
