Hi All, in the process of upgrading my analog 600TVL bullet cameras and 7208 Hikvision DVR with the latest 3.0 Tribrid series (LTS) DVR and respective 3MP cameras. Wanted to see what the community thought of the new 3MP 2.8-12mm motorized varifocal for a front door application (model...

So I decided to pay a visit to the Hikvision Us HQ in City of Industry with the DVR, and to my surprise (and embarrassment) upon their testing, it worked! I never checked to see if the correct firmware took with my last TFTP attempt (I assumed since it hung at the very step, since it never gave...

Thanks so much!!!

Thanks again for all your help with this, alastairstevenson! Just to be clear, once I obtain the USB to TTL converter and the wired connector, should I follow the flashing instructions in the PDF they sent me (attached in an above post)? Attaching a closer up view, I think you were referring to...
