Ha ha, I just went in to create the filter to delete it, and I noticed that there was a filter already there for Tripwire Clear. Looks like that is why I didn't get these emails before, and now Dahua changed the emails sent from Tripwire Clear to Tripwire End, and that is why the emails were...

Yeah I read about email filtering. The reason I did the upgrade was to get the bridge mode as I am using a POE switch to power the cameras, and have a single cable going to one of the ports on my NVR. Now I have a random camera that drops in and ont consistently. Time to troubleshoot that one...

Funny, I never had it until I upgraded from the old firmware version (old UI)... :)

Hi all, Does anyone know how to turn off the Tripwire End Alarm? I get two email notifications now, one with the picture attached (Tripwire Alarm Input), and now the Tripwire End Alarm (no attachment)? Thanks, Mike

@bigredfish - Thank you. Any experience with DSS Express? I read somewhere that is the way Dahua is heading. Mike

First link is missing. :)

Do you happen to know where to get the Windows download for SmartPSS? I clicked on your link, and it is only showing Apple products. Thanks, Mike

Good to know. Thank you much! :) Mike

Ok, cool. Thank you for your replies. So, when I originally bought my setup from Andy, it was through an Aliexpress.com site, and now it seems to be www.empiretech01.com. Are they one in the same, or is the Aliexpress.com site no longer used? Thanks again, Mike

Hi all, I have the NVR5216-16P-4KS2 NVR. and I am wondering if other brands of cameras will work with this NVR, or do I have to purchase Dahua cameras only? I tried searching around the forum, and didn't find anything that met my needs, or maybe it is because I was looking for a list of...

I just have to report back. I took the plunge with the update and all went well. Yay! My reasoning for updating was to get the 'bridge mode'. I am running all my cameras to a POE switch and then have only one cable to run to my NVR that was in a different room. Fortunately, with this update I...

Nope, no 'E'. :) Would it still work?

I like the idea in the video above. I looked into it, and it looks like my model should have the bridge mode capability, although I believe my firmware needs to be updated. Does anyone happen to know where to get the firmware for the NVR5216-16P-4KS2? I see so many that look similar, and just...

Thanks for the reply. So what you're saying, the cable coming from the POE switch doesn't go directly to the NVR, IT goes to a regular switch first and then from there it goes to the NVR LAN port?

Hi there. So having a 4 year old and a wife that works from home, makes it a little hard to do anything with the network. So with that said, I am barely starting to do the upgrade now. :) @wittaj, in the diagram you provided above, I am assuming that the Enet line that goes from the camera's...
