In the popup window, choose the *P&P Camera* option, input the Registration Code, and provide the camera's user credentials.
Select the billing plan and click the Create button to complete the process.
The Milesight camera is now successfully integrated into the Stallion Cloud Platform using the Push Module.
Step 1: Identify the NVR Model
The firmware to be used depends on the NVR model. To identify the correct firmware, check the NVR model either on the device itself or through the NRS web interface on the Basic Setup page.
Step 2: Download the Correct Firmware for the Device Model
OVZ-NVR164K-8TB
OVZ-NVR324K-16TB
OVZ-NVR644K-32TB
OVZ-NVR1284K-64TB

Step 8: Add Multiple Cameras from the NVR
For additional cameras, use the ONVIF option for cameras beyond the first. Since the NVR already includes a push module, there's no need for port forwarding rules.
The push module will create a tunnel for all cameras connected to the NVR.
Use the following HTTP access URL format:
http://<RegistrationCodeOfNVR>.pushproxy.avyconcloud.local/
Replace `<RegistrationCodeOfNVR>` with the NVR's actual registration code.
Set the RTSP port to 80, and use the NVR's username and password.
Repeat for all cameras connected to the NVR.
Step 9: Choose the Streaming Profile
For each camera, associate it with its specific NVR copy in the system.
By default, the first streaming channel of the device will be used. To change this, open each copy, navigate to the Quality tab, and select the desired streaming channel.
Adjust the stream quality settings as needed and save the changes.
If the NVR is set to the H.265 codec, ONVIF will not display compatible streaming channels. To resolve this, switch the NVR to H.264 via its web UI, and the channels will appear in the admin portal.
Note: Only fixed billing plans are available for the P&P copy of the NVR. Future updates will allow all cameras connected through the NVR to use fixed billing plans.

For Pay-as-you-go plans, stream quality settings can be manually configured after the camera is added.
The TVT camera is now successfully integrated into the Starllion Cloud Platform using the Push Module.
Step 1: Download and Install the Windows Push Installer App
To add a push module to Uniview cameras, download, install, and run the Push Firmware Installer app for Windows.
Currently, this application is available only for the Windows operating system.
A list of compatible models:
Ensure that the latest version, currently v1.0.3, is being used to maintain compatibility with the maximum number of models. Upon starting, the app will automatically detect all cameras on the local network, displaying their model, IP address, and fields for entering administrator credentials.
For any cameras not discovered automatically, use the "Add Device Manually" button to include them using their IP address and ports.
Step 2: Enter Camera Credentials
Administrator-level credentials are required for each camera to add the push module. If credentials are identical across all cameras, they can be entered manually for each camera or applied in bulk using the "Change Credentials" button at the bottom of the app.
Step 3: Upgrade Cameras
The push module can be added to individual cameras, multiple cameras simultaneously, or all cameras on the network. To select multiple cameras, check the box for each desired camera or use the Select All button.
Initiate the upgrade process by clicking the Upgrade or Upgrade Selected button. During the upgrade, avoid turning off the computer or closing the app. After the upgrade begins, the app will display the Registration Code for each camera. Copy this code and use it to register the camera as P&P in the Admin Portal.
For a successful upgrade, it is recommended to connect the computer and cameras to the same switch and ensure a stable power supply throughout the process.
Note: Most Uniview cameras can be updated with the push module using this app. However, some of the latest models are not yet supported. Refer to the relevant page for guidance if the app fails to install the push module.
Cameras with very outdated firmware may display a blank page instead of a login window post-update. If this occurs, close the browser entirely and reopen it. This happens due to significant changes in the login page by Uniview, with some browsers attempting to load a cached version.
Step 4: Register the Camera
Use the Registration Code obtained in Step 3 to add the camera in the Admin Portal.
In the Customers table, select the customer account to which the camera will be added, then click on the Cameras menu within the customer's menu level. Use the "Add" button to integrate the camera.
In the pop-up window, select the P&P Camera option.

Search for cameras in the admin portal using the serial number (SN). A connected barcode scanner can simplify the process by entering the SN directly into the search box.
2. Assign to Customer or Sub-Integrator:
Select the appropriate customer or sub-integrator for the camera.
3. Choose a Plan:
Assign the desired service plan to the camera.
Client Setup Process
1. Connect the Camera:
Attach one end of the Ethernet cable to the camera and the other to a network switch.
Ensure the network switch is connected to a router or similar infrastructure providing internet access via a DHCP server.
2. Power On the Devices:
Plug in and power on the camera and network switch.
3. Automatic Setup:
The camera will connect to the internet and begin functioning automatically within 3–5 minutes (up to 15 minutes in rare cases).
If the camera does not appear online, perform a power cycle and refresh the camera list in the admin portal.
4. Client Access:
Provide the client with credentials to access the camera.
The camera's name can be customized (e.g., by location) in the general settings.
Managing Roles and Access
Customize roles and permissions to control user access levels beyond the owner type.
By following these steps, distributors can ensure a smooth deployment and customer experience with push-enabled cameras.
