The Hikvision tracking camera DS-2SE4C425MWG-E/14(F0) is an advanced panoramic Hikvision camera with integrated PTZ capability, designed to deliver seamless 360° monitoring combined with intelligent auto-tracking features. By pairing a panoramic bullet camera with a PTZ dome, you can capture the bigger picture while zooming in on key events in real time.
In this guide, we provide a step-by-step walkthrough to set up this panoramic tracking camera for optimal performance. Whether you’re securing industrial sites, monitoring public areas, or protecting large outdoor perimeters, these instructions ensure precise positioning, smooth target tracking, and reliable coverage using your Hikvision CCTV PTZ system.
Login and Install the Camera Plugin
- To begin, log in to the camera’s official web client from a computer.
- On the top right corner of the interface, click to download the required plugin.
- Install the plugin on your system, then refresh the web page to enable all interface functions for Hikvision tracking camera.
Link the Panoramic Bullet Camera with the PTZ Dome
For accurate target tracking, the panoramic PTZ camera system must have proper position calibration between the panoramic bullet unit and the PTZ dome head. This ensures targets detected in the panoramic view are tracked in real time by the PTZ.
Calibration Steps:
- Go to Configuration → Calibrate → Panorama Linkage.
- Choose Auto (Fast) mode.
- Click Start Calibration and wait for positioning to complete.
- Use the Verify function to check precision.
💡 Pro Tip: Simple monitoring environments generally work well with Auto mode. For scenes with heavy movement or complex layouts, use Manual Calibration for higher accuracy.
Enable Auto-Tracking Mode
Once calibration is done, enable auto-tracking so your Hikvision CCTV PTZ can follow moving targets.
- Enable Tracking: Switch ON to activate.
- Zooming Ratio: (Lower number → larger close-up image of the target, Higher number → wider, less zoomed-in view.)
- Adjust based on whether the tracked person/object appears too small or too large on screen.
- Tracking Duration: Length of time (in seconds) that the PTZ follows a triggered target event.
- Set Tracking Initial Position: Define the “idle” PTZ position when no tracking is active. To set this, aim the PTZ to your preferred watch point and click Set.
Enable Smart Event for Panoramic Tracking
The panoramic tracking camera function relies on smart events from the panoramic bullet camera’s view. Tracking activates only when the predefined event is triggered within the panoramic view. Once the object leaves the panoramic field, tracking stops automatically.
Configuration Steps:
- Access the Smart Event menu.
- Set event rules (e.g., intrusion detection, line crossing) to define what triggers the tracking.
- Save your settings to ensure tracking works automatically during actual events.
