Yesterday I began the story of the IP-camera MISECU IPC-BT63WTW-20, Which can be used to make a simple video surveillance system (https://zen.yandex.ru/media/ammo1/videonabliudenie-za-1800-rublei-5cdba28b0362b500b303a905).
The camera can work simultaneously in two modes. In the first mode, all configuration and management take place through mobile iCsee application, there is configured to connect to WiFi. In the second mode is a common IP-camera, which can be configured through Internet Explorer, it can record video to a MicroSD card (including including motion) and can be connected to a recorder that supports NetIP protocol (ONVIF is not supported, motion recording works). Live video from a camera and recording, you can view and through a mobile application XMeye. Of course, both an application running through the cloud and the smartphone may be, though on the other side of the globe.
And iCsee and XMeye using the same account, if you do not, you must create.
Put iCsee, click "register" Create a username and password (in the "Chinese puzzle" is not pay attention), where it says "Enter your number," enter the email address and click "Get code Confirmed ". The code, which came to the post office, enter in the box that appears and click "Register".
To set up Wi-Fi needed to prevent the camera was connected to a wired network. Turn on the camera, it is utter incomprehensible phrase in English. Click "+" in the upper right corner, click "Add my" click "Next".
Push the button in the upper right corner, there will be QR-code that you want to show the camera at a distance of 15-30 cm. As soon as the camera sees the code, the following screen appears with a proposal to create a password the camera (the four digits is enough), and then the screen with a proposal to give the name (in English) camera.
The camera is connected to Wi-Fi and added to the application. Now when you run it to view live video from the camera will be enough to click on the image. When you turn the smartphone into a horizontal position, the video will be opened on the screen. Entries need to click to view "to show."
"Loudspeaker" button turns the sound from the camera, "Microphone" button allows you to send a voice message to the camera.
Now you need to set up motion recording (otherwise the camera will continuously write and memory card only enough for a few hours of recording). The annex is somehow all is not obvious, so it's easier to set up all the second camera mode.
Run Internet Explorer and go to the address 192.168.1.10 (the first time will have to put AciveX-plug). the password input box will appear. Username: admin, password - one that we have set for the camera (not yet!) When setting up. This will open a window here.
Click "Device" and get into the main menu of the second camera mode.
Click the icon at the bottom of the shield (alarm), there choose "Move", including motion detection, press the button "Channel recording", if you select the checkbox "Mobile" with every movement in the app will be coming push-notification.
Push the bottom of the hard drive icon (record), set the time interval 1 minute, 1 second pre-record time, leaving only one daw "discovered.".
Push the bottom of the GEAR (the system), we come to the point of "compression". Include H.265, 1080P and choose 20 frames per second, the right to put the best of 10 frames per second (this is an additional stream of low resolution to work through a slow Internet).
That's all. The camera now writes only movement with a good compression H.265 +.
Even when the camera is connected via Wi-Fi in the second mode, the menu will show "wired network".
Though Wi-Fi is in the online services, you can not set it up here. When you try to search the camera hangs networks.
image settings can be customized at will.
camera version.
The image quality is exactly the same as the other cameras in the nameless Chinese sensors.
I placed the camera on the window on the center of the room. The distance from the camera to the cabinet - 5 meters.
Image at artificial illumination (to see the full resolution, open the image in a new window).
In complete darkness.
resolution test (sheet covers one third of the height of the frame).
Sheet the dough cut from the previous frame.
In complete darkness.
Of course, the picture is not the same as the sensor Sony IMX323 ( https://ammo1.livejournal.com/1027764.html)But in most cases it will come down.
I bought the camera in the official store Misecu on Aliexpress. There's a lot of options. I took 1080P camera without a power unit and a memory card with 3.6 mm lens for $ 26.72. Lens 3.6 mm allows the viewing angle of about 90 ° and is suitable for indoor use. The second embodiment of the lens - 6 mm is suitable for shooting a long distance on the street (e.g. on a hang chamber wall 3 and floor shoot parking). Chances are the camera option to 720P resolution will give even worse picture. The difference there is $ 5, but I decided not to risk it.
Camera with WIFI to SD-card - the perfect solution for simple and cheap CCTV system. It can be installed at home or in the country (it is only important to understand that her function in this case - to show you that everything is in order. From criminals is not much help - they can carry it with you, along with the record). Such cells can be used more. And if you want to make the system more "prestupnikoustoychivoy", you can add the recorder to Entry was not only on the card in the camera, but also to the hard disk recorder, set in a secluded place.
