    Firmware update on IPC-Color4K-T180 / IPC-PDW5849-A180-E2-ASTE bricked it

    The serial port of the camera is a JST 1.25 4 way plug, I bought a plug/cable of ebay, then connected it to a terminal, and then connected the terminal to the pins of a CP2102 Module USB to TTL Serial adapter: The black wire is ground, which was just connected to any screw of the camera, the...

    Firmware update on IPC-Color4K-T180 / IPC-PDW5849-A180-E2-ASTE bricked it

    Just to clarify I had to put all these files from the ZIP andy sent me on a TFTP server: Then boot the camera with serial cable connected and run the command "run up" which flash the camera correctly with all files downloaded from the TFTP server

    Firmware update on IPC-Color4K-T180 / IPC-PDW5849-A180-E2-ASTE bricked it

    on another note, if I update manually the 5 firmware files from Dahua V3.140.0000000.32.R.250115, on the first boot the camera works, if I power cycle the camera, it no longer works.

    Firmware update on IPC-Color4K-T180 / IPC-PDW5849-A180-E2-ASTE bricked it

    Firmware update of my IPC-Color4K-T180 from empiretech went terribly wrong. Not sure if this is a buggy firmware update, the firmware was downloaded from empiretech's website V3.140.0000000.32.R.250115, update was done as usual, camera never came back working. When botting ip, it picks up the IP...

    Cameras slow when plugged into Dahua NVR switch

    In mine, I just added 3 cameras to the Poe ports, all of them had the odd skipping a second here and there. Slowing down and speeding up from time to time.

    Cameras slow when plugged into Dahua NVR switch

    But the interface from NVR to network is gbit, the cameras are like 10mbit max normally, so I would not be anywhere near the limits. even with the ports at 100mbit, and the NVR 1gbit downlink should be plenty. I wonder if the stream is relayed via the NVR or if I stream directly from the camera...

    Cameras slow when plugged into Dahua NVR switch

    I don't think so, otherwise I would experience the same using an external network switch, right? Thanks for confirming. I can't understand how Dahua let's things like this escape quality control... Is this bad firmware or is it the hardware?

    Configuring different IVS areas, some with and some without notifications

    pardon me if I'm being thick, but I cannot find a way to see any of the IVS rules on the DMMS app when accessing the camera: It only gives me the option to switch on or off intrusion or tripwire, there is no way to access the rules I created on the camera:
