    Would appreciate some help with a Hikvision camera if possible please.

    Thank you @alastairstevenson At the presnt time the camera isn't plugged into the NVR but I made a short cable that I have used to connect it and that is how I got the message on the stand-alone monitor asking for a password.

    Would appreciate some help with a Hikvision camera if possible please.

    Thank you @alastairstevenson My cameras are on the same LAN as my pc. At the moment I have the 3 cameras that have always been on the system but the new camera is not plugged into the NVR at the moment although I have previously plugged it in, hence the request for a password. I opened up the...

    Would appreciate some help with a Hikvision camera if possible please.

    Thankyou @alastairstevenson but I am afraid that you helpful guys are going to get fed up with me ! Although I have SADP on my desktop homr screen I don't know how to use it. I think it must have been put there when I did a Teamviewer session with my suppliers. I have just double-clicked on the...

    Thank you @Jimmyjames. Unfortunately there is no SD/RESET access cover on my camera like there is on yours.

    Would appreciate some help with a Hikvision camera if possible please.

    Thank you @alastairstevenson. I will try that as soon as I can. As I mentioned earlir, I do have the SADP tool icon on my desktop which is connected to the CCTV system but I'm not sure how it got there. I think it must have been when the suppliers of my system were helping me on-line one day...

    Sorry @Jimmyjames but I had a good look at the camera and couldn't find a screw anywhre on the camera body. There is what looks like a small plastic plate that is part of the camera body but I don't know how it would be detached, it just sits flush with the rest of the body.

    Thank you very much for that @TonyR. I don't understand the dangers of showing the SN and the bar code but I have taken your advice and deleted both items. I hope that all is in order now and thank you, I really appreciate your help and advice. I do actually have the SADP icon on my desktop pc...

    I have a CCTV system with 2 dome cameras and one PTZ. But I have just acquired another dome camera, which I believe is unused, which is very similar to my existing dome cameras and looks to be about the same age. I made a short cable and plugged it into my NVR but the system asks for a password...

    Retrospective motion detection.

    Thank you for that biggen. Yes, I am recording 24/7 and I have played with the motion detection on my system but that just sets up an area where, if motion is detected, then I can see it easily. But the problem is that if I want to cover all aspects of my premises then I have to install more...
