Only specific model HMI support all the functions listed below.

1 Camera

Error

✎Note: PIStudio supports both IP cameras and USB cameras. However, the currently available models do not support the USB camera function. Therefore, IP cameras should be used with priority. For function capabilities, please refer to the Function Limits table

In theory, IP cameras supporting H.264 and ONVIF can be connected to PI HMIs. Please ensure that the camera resolution and the camera object use the same aspect ratio as much as possible.

The following camera models have been tested and verified:

1) Hikvision

  • DS-2CD1321D-I
  • DS-2CD3T20FD-I3W
  • DS-2CD1221D-I3
  • DS-2CV3Q21FD-IW

2) Dahua

  • DH-IPC-HFW1025D
  • DH-IPC-HFW1235M-I1
