This hikvisioncam switch {% term integration %} allows you to control your motion detection setting on your Hikvision camera.

Currently works using default https port only.

To use your Hikvision cam in your installation, add the following to your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file. {% include integrations/restart_ha_after_config_inclusion.md %}

# Example configuration.yaml entry
switch:
  - platform: hikvisioncam
    host: 192.168.1.32

In the Hikvision camera settings you also need to make a few changes:

• In the camera menu navigate to Network >> Advanced Settings >> Integration Protocol. Check the 'Enable Hikvision-CGI' box and set the 'Hikvision-CGI Authentication' to 'digest/basic'.
• Make sure the camera user has the rights to change parameter settings. In the menu navigate to System Settings >> User Management >> User Management. Select the correct user, click 'Modify' en check the 'Remote: Parameters Settings' box.
