    IP Camera Exception?

    ? strange posts didn't show up. yes never knew we could do that. reduced the resolution to 720p and that has fixed it. was a resource issue with the nvr and the new camera being set at a much higher resolution by default.

    Log: Exception: IP Camera Disconnect,

    OH that seems to have fixed it. I'm not sure whether it's the manual dial or, or I changed the camera resolution to 720P instead of 2688x1520. ***Just tested it, yes it appears to be a resource issue. The old NVR couldn't handle the higher resolution. Changing to 720P did the trick.

    IP Camera Exception?

    Have NVR 7616 with 8 physical PoE ports and then 2 additional cameras plugged in via PoE switch. NVR is connected to a normal switch along with PoE switch. One of the cameras works fine on the PoE switch, but when I try the other one it says IP camera exception [camera D9] Looking at the...

    Added new HikVision cameras to old NVR, now they don't work on the new one?

    Actually just fixed. Just reset the entire NVR back to factory default and all cameras seem to work fine now. There was a password facility when I setup the nvr in the wizard to set a password for the cameras which i find odd.

    HIK Vision Ds 7616NI, how to use the other 8 ports?

    Yep. The NVR didn't find the cameras with the POE switch plugged into the LAN switch. Do you mean setup all 16 cameras with a static IP address and disable DHCP from the NVR? I have a non-managed POE switch btw.

    Getting Dahua cameras to work on Hikvision NVR

    I've searched and there is one other thread on this forum but doesn't make much sense to me. I have a DS 7616 Hikvision camera, bought it off aliexpress and for some reason I was under the inclination that these would work plug and play and they obviously don't. What is the proper way to get...

    Added new HikVision cameras to old NVR, now they don't work on the new one?

    Have an old NVR DS 7608 and added new Hikvision cameras to it, then tried to add the new cameras to the new NVR DS7616 and now they won't work? I recall I might have actually added them to the new NVR first, it asked me to setup some passwords but I thought they would have been for the NVR and...

    HIK Vision Ds 7616NI, how to use the other 8 ports?

    Back of NVR has 8 POE Ports with all 8 ports taken up by the HIK IP cameras Have a 4 port POE switch to enable the other 8 ports (obviously this will allow only 3-4 other ports as I bought a smaller switch) The NVR is connect to a gigabit switch. Additional cameras are connect to the POE...
