Re: DW Spectrum 5.0 & CP04 Compatibility Issue
DW Spectrum 5.0 and CP04 Compatibility Issue
-----------------------------------
Affected Model Numbers: DW-CP04 (4-CH Compressor)
Bulletin Date: August 30, 2023
-----------------------------------
Incompatibility Notice
The DW-CP04, 4-channel analog to IP video Compressor is not compatible when used with DW Spectrum Systems that are running Version 5.0 and up.
Recommended Solution
The DW-CP04 is a discontinued product and is no longer eligible to receive technical support. However, if you must use this product, a workaround to add a camera stream to a DW Spectrum System is to:
- Use the primary RTSP stream of the target camera that is generated by the DW-CP04 unit when adding to the DW Spectrum Server
- An IP camera license must be available for the DW Spectrum Server.
**NOTE: There is no RTSP sub-stream available for the DW-CP04.
