    IP Villa VTO has "Environment Error", Can't Setup SIP Calling

    Only the single VTO and VTH. I have 3 other Dahua IP Cameras on the network though managed by DMSS. I think the VTO has a newer firmware version than the VTH, since it was replaced and newer. Are there any support services I could pay to walk me through getting the SIP calling working with...

    IP Villa VTO has "Environment Error", Can't Setup SIP Calling

    I had an IP Villa VTO that I set up through the the "ONE KEY" process on the VTH touchpad and it was calling and working fine... until one day it just bricked. So I had to buy a second IP Villa VTO, this time a Second Gen version. I plugged it in to the Ethernet as before and hooked up the VTH...

    How to Add IP Villa VTO Intercom to PoE NVR?

    Thanks finally got it to work. It turns out my NVR doesn't have any outbound internet PoE ports and the VTO/VTH has to have direct internet access like you noted. So even having my PoE switch go into my NVR was the piece that was messing things up. I put the PoE switch to the Router instead and...

    How to Add IP Villa VTO Intercom to PoE NVR?

    I have a VTO intercom and the VTH screen. When I plug the VTO and VTH into my 8-port PoE NVR, nothing shows up. I also cannot find the VTO from my VTH's Device List this way. If I plug the VTO and VTH into a PoE Switch, and then the PoE Switch into my NVR... I can then see the VTO from my VTH's...

    VTO2202F-P Intercom with NVR?

    No, even with the PoE switch into the NVR, none of it shows up in the NVR's Camera List. When I have them both into the PoE switch and then the NVR, I can see the VTO in the device list on the VTH, not the NVR. Whereas direct into the NVR, I couldn't even see the VTO on the VTH. I have an 8...

    VTO2202F-P Intercom with NVR?

    If I plug the VTH and VTO into a PoE switch and then the Switch into the NVR... I can see the VTO on the device list on the VTH. If I plug the VTH and VTO directly into the NVR without the PoE Switch, I cannot see the VTO in the device list on the VTH.

    VTO2202F-P Intercom with NVR?

    I have the Villa intercom camera plugged into the back of my PoE NVR directly, but I can't get it to show up in the Camera list. Tried rebooting and different ports, etc.

    VTO2202F-P Intercom with NVR?

    How come you needed a PoE Splitter to connect it to your NVR? Also, are you able to put your camera feeds and recordings onto the VTH? That would be cool if easily doable

    VTO2202F-P Intercom with NVR?

    Do you interface with your Villa intercom with that tablet screen only - or what’s your method of receiving a call from it? How do you have the tablet hooked up? I take it you don’t use the mobile app for security issues, but it would be nice to be able to answer a call from the intercom from...

    VTO2202F-P Intercom with NVR?

    I have the VTO2202F-P intercom, a Dahua 8-port PoE NVR, and the small tablet screen that comes with the intercom. What's the best way to get all of this working together? Could I plug both the Intercom and the tablet screen into the NVR via Ethernet? And it seems like when someone rings the...

    Smarten Motion Recording w/ Dahua NVR?

    Awesome, but in my NVR's Storage Schedule settings... do I need to set anything there at all? Should I set all the days 24/7 to "Intelligent" or "Alarm" instead of "motion"?

    Smarten Motion Recording w/ Dahua NVR?

    Thanks @wittaj I downloaded Pale Moon and was able to access it (what a retro throwback...) To confirm, in my NVR's Alarm settings, I should have Motion detection turned OFF and then in my camera's Video Detection > Motion Detection, I should have that turned OFF and in my camera's Smart Plan...

    Smarten Motion Recording w/ Dahua NVR?

    I have an 8 port PoE Dahua NVR with a set of their IP cameras. I turned off general recording and switched everything to Motion recording with the default settings to try and save some hard drive space and only capture interesting things... ideally. However, the motion recording isn't great...

    How's This for my First IP Setup for House?

    Looks like there's no real way to interlink the VTO2202F-P Intercom with an automated gate opener, so scratch that. For its POE connection, can I just run an inline POE Surge Protector for surge mitigation? Those of you who are running 8-14+ cameras... are you doing so in a single family...
