Alastair,
Seems like you are the resident expert on Hikvision here.
I'm trying to help out a friend that bricked a DS-9016HFI-ST, and have only spent about 20 minutes with it so far, I tried to connect to the console (RS-232) port on the back to watch what was going on and saw nothing, the only thing that is not clear to me is if I need a null modem cable or a straight thru serial cable.

Hi this is my first time posting I apologise if this is a repeat question
Ive got a DS7608N from China that I bricked trying to update the fw
I found some Chinese firmware that I managed to load on to the NVR using Putty TFTP USB TTL
The NVRs working but all in Chinese
I tried the english version after changing the lang with hiktools in cmd prompt
So has anyone got fw that will work in this situation
Thanks Nick

I tried this https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/ds-7808n-e2-nvr-firmware-upgrade.18683/#post-183644 but the problem persist.

Hi, this is Jack. I've a question for you, if you can kindly answer it.
I bought a DS-7732N-E4/16P and I'm trying to update the firmware.
I tried to change the firmware language (the NI release) using "hiktools lang digicap.dav 2" with no results.
Can I modify my NVR as I can update it using NI's firmware release?
Where can I download updated firmware for my NVR?
Does I was stupid to buy the N version?
