What is in the IVK8L-12502D kit?
In the box: 2 × IVSEC 1250D 12MP turret dome cameras; IVSEC NVR 8000 8-channel PoE+ recorder; 2TB surveillance drive, installed in the recorder; 1 × 20 m and 1 × 30 m Cat5e cables; 1.8 m Cat5e cable from the recorder to your router; 48 V recorder power supply, 1 m HDMI cable and USB mouse; camera mounting screws.
Can I add more cameras later?
Yes. The recorder has eight PoE+ ports and this kit uses two, so you can add six more IVSEC cameras such as the 1250B or 1250D. ONVIF cameras from other brands also connect, though some features may not work on every model.
How long will the 2TB drive record?
It depends on how many cameras record, the bit rate and whether you record all the time or only on events. When the drive is full the oldest footage is overwritten. For longer recording, choose a 4TB to 14TB drive option; the recorder takes up to 16TB.
Do the cameras need a power point each?
No. Each camera is powered by the recorder through its network cable (PoE), so one Cat5e run per camera is all it needs.
Can I see colour at night?
Yes. With the white light on, the 1250D records in colour at night. You can instead use infrared, which records in black and white up to 25 m without a visible light.
What does the deterrence do?
When a camera detects a person or vehicle it can switch on the white light, flash red and blue, sound a siren, or any mix of these, on a schedule you choose, for example only between 9 pm and 5 am.
Can I talk through the cameras?
Yes. Each camera has a built-in microphone and speaker for two-way audio from the IVSEC X app, so you can warn someone off or speak to a delivery driver.
Do I have to register an account to use the app?
No. The free IVSEC X app connects by scanning the recorder's QR code and does not need you to register an email address, and you can add as many users as you need.
Which AI detections does it have?
Human and vehicle detection, face detection, perimeter intrusion, line crossing, stationary object, crossing count, heat map, crowd density, queue length and rare sound. Each camera runs one AI mode at a time, alongside standard motion detection.
Can the recorder connect to my router over Wi-Fi?
Yes. The kit includes a 1.8 m cable for a wired connection, and if the router is too far away you can add the IVSEC NVR wireless antenna (IVSEC-ACC-NVRANT), which connects the recorder to your Wi-Fi. The cameras still run on their own network cables back to the recorder.
Are the cameras weatherproof?
Yes. The 1250D has a metal alloy housing rated IP67, so it can go outdoors under eaves or on ceilings. The recorder is for indoor use.
What warranty does the kit have?
Three years. InFront Technologies handles warranty and technical support in Australia on 1300 736 970.
