    Trying to get 2 DS-7616NI-E2/8P to share cameras

    I think it will be much easier if you don't play with the internal PoE network at all. Just add to IP 192.168.1.51 new IP channel 192.168.1.52, then you will be prompted which channels to import (select 9 to 16). And vice versa.. add to IP 192.168.1.52 new IP channel 192.168.1.51, then you...

    Cant formatt hd

    Check if the SATA/Power cables are attached firmly. Also you could change the power adapter of the DVR if you have a spare one.

    Resolution resets itself

    Make sure the NVR has the latest firmware, and also make sure you set the resolution setting through the NVR.

    Free, PC based NVR software for Hikvision 2432

    I would recommend you the following: 1. Buy a cheap Hikvision NVR (like DS-7604NI-E1). It really worth its money, and will safe you a tons of troubles. 2. You could go for the stock Hikvision software - iVMS4200 including Storage server for recording (motion detetection works fine). 3...

    identical camera with identical settings inconsistency image quality.

    I've had several similar cases in my daily experience where the IRCut filter of Hik cameras does not work properly. There're two scenarios: 1. IRC filter is stuck in "ON" position. The result: Perfect picture during the day, while at night the picture is very noisy, almost unusable. 2. IRC...

    DS-2CD2132-I Night settings?

    It seems for me the IRC filter does not work properly. Do a simple test - during a day come close to the camera then cover it entirely with a hand. If you hear the "clicking" noise of moving the IRC filter when going to night mode it should be OK. If you don't hear anything, better return the...

    IVMS-4200 Server and multiple desktop clients (Windows/OSX)

    Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the OSX version of iVMS4200. I can explain how it goes when using Windows iVMS4200. Here on the remote client you have to add your remote iVMS4200 storage server (usually on port 8000). There is a small "trick" here. After the Storage server is added, you...

    IVMS4200 - Web View Plugin error on Safari/Firefox/Chrome on OSX

    Look at that way.. You are an end customer. You pay for a camera, and you're using OSX as a primary OS. Hikvision should ensure you have the ability to "see" the camera using your Apple device. And the other way.. you have the camera, you're using iVMS4200 FREE software (note the word free) on...

    IVMS4200 - Web View Plugin error on Safari/Firefox/Chrome on OSX

    I would rather be surprised if worked. For OSX Hikvision usually provides separate web plugins, but not so often, and the general support is rather scarce.

    IVMS-4200 Server and multiple desktop clients (Windows/OSX)

    CTF, I think the best solution for you would be iVMS-4200 PCNVR where this software turns your PC to act as a hardware NVR. The main advantage is: when you register PCNVR on a remote client - you get instantly access to all the registered IP cams, settings and recordings. Actually there's no...

    easy way to turn off motion detection DS-7608N-E2/8P

    I've just made a test, and it works like a charm. What you need: 1. NVR, regardless if the NVR has alarm inputs. In my case I used DS-7608NI-E2/8P/A, fw v3.3.2 build 150522 2. Ipcamera with alarm I/O. In my case I used DS-2CD2432F-IW, fw v. 5.3.0 build 150513 3. Set recording type "Motion &...

    easy way to turn off motion detection DS-7608N-E2/8P

    Does the NVR model have alarm inputs (DS-7608NI-E2/8P/A)? If yes, you can easily activate record type "Motion & Alarm", then put simple ON/OFF switch to trigger the alarm input. You will have records only when both motion detection is present, and the switch is in ON position.
