Can I add IP cameras to my system?
Yes to add an additional camera to your DVR just follow these simple steps:
- Ensure that the camera is connected to the Yale Home app and is usable
- Plugin the DVR, ensuring it is connected via an Ethernet cable to your router and add any wired cameras
- Right-click and enter the Main Menu (using your DVR login credentials)
- At the menu go to ‘Camera’ at the bottom left corner
- Ensure ‘Registration’ at the top right is highlighted and then press “IP search”
- This will scan your network for any IP cameras. If they are connected and working, you will see your cameras appear
- Check the boxes of the cameras you want to add and then select ‘Add’
- Once done, you will see them in the lower box on the screen. If they are showing as green they are online and will be viewable on your DVR. If they are red, they are connected but are offline: please check the connection to your router to the IP camera.
