How to Enter Stream Key/Verification Code on iVMS-4200 Software

If you're experiencing issues with accessing your Hikvision cameras using the QR code or serial number, it may be due to a verification code being enabled on your device. In this article, we'll guide you through the steps to enter the stream key/verification code on iVMS-4200 software.

To begin, make sure that 'Enable Stream Encryption' is not ticked under Menu > Configuration > Network > Advanced > Platform Access. If you're unable to do so using your mouse and TV/monitor, you'll need to use the recorder interface instead.

Once you've accessed the configuration menu, navigate to Local and enter the verification code into the box labeled 'Encryption Key.' This code is unique to each device and serves as an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized access.

To locate the stream key or verification code on your iVMS-4200 software, follow these steps:

1. Go to Menu > Configuration > Network > Platform Access.

2. Alternatively, you can also find it under Menu > Configuration > Network > Advanced Settings > Platform Access.

If you're still unable to locate the verification code, don't worry! You can simply email or call support to open a ticket and receive assistance.

Once you've entered the stream key/verification code, you'll be able to access your Hikvision cameras using the iVMS-4200 software on your Mac. If you imported all cameras in step 10, they should appear automatically. Otherwise, simply click on the cameras listed on the left side of the screen to add them to the right-hand panel.

By following these simple steps, you'll be able to view your Hikvision cameras from your Mac computer using the iVMS-4200 software. If you encounter any issues or have further questions, feel free to reach out to support for assistance.
