Current NVR5216-4KS2 user manual?

Dahua manuals are not well written, sketchy, and for the most part, close to useless.

It's too bad because I love knowing a product inside and out so you can use it to its full capacity. They should just have a wiki for each product and alow people to add to it. All they wold have to do is accept or deny edits.

These units are not designed to be sold to end users...no need for a manual...

you can try and find a manual from a rebranded lorex or something that has the same functions...

Good point.
And also, they're sold to be re-branded. The OEM (Dahua) sells units that will be branded with other names. And firmware tweaked. Then sold with a nice user-friendly manual using the style/colors/fonts of the parent company.

reufunky, if Dahua made nice manuals for us, they'd be doing a disservice to the companies below. If end-users want nice manuals, they should buy from Dahua's re-branders!

My first thought was "oops"
My 2nd thought: Wait, I'm not a paid ipvm member. So I don't think I shared content that is for "member eyes only"
Also, the link I posted for the ipvm site (w/ that graphic) should be view-able by all members of this forum.
Respectfully,
