< Part 1 > I just bought some cameras for my own use, I'm not an expert in this field

1.I don't see a power adapter in the box.

Answer: IP cameras are usually powered by the system , so IP cameras sold separately are not include a power adapter.

Solution: 3 ways to power a POE IP camera: 1, POE power supply; 2, POE switch; 3, DC12V power adapter

2.It was connected to the router, but nothing happened. The browser did not respond to 192.168.1.10

Answer:The most likely problem is that your computer, router and IP camera are not on the same network

3. The NVR can search out the ip, but it fails to add the camera
Answer: Protocol, protocol port, compression format mismatch

Solution：Added through the ONVIF protocol, the ONVIF port of the XM series is 8899, set the compression format to H.264 (the XM series is H.265X)

4. My old NVR can't add camera

Answer:The resolution of the old NVR is too low(maybe 1080p), our camera resolution from 2022 is from 4MP. The NVR decoding ability is insufficient, and the compressed format version is low

Solution:Reduce the resolution of our camera, check the frame rate of the NVR, and set our camera to match the frame rate, it is recommended to set it to 1080p @20 fps and set the compression format to H.265X(it is the same as H.264 here)
