I've been unable to get ivms4200 to play back audio consistently, even though playback audio sounds fine on the HIK connect app. I seem to recall that there was a sequence of menus to click through before ivms4200 would unleash my audio, but I can't remember now. Has anyone solved this...
I looked at all the camera's MAC addresses. They are all unique. There are no IP address duplicates either.
Here's what I tried:
Set camera IP address to 192.168.0.150 and attach it to the PC LAN
The camera image appears on NVR D15, which was set up for this IP address previously...
I tried going back to the default IP address range.
Using SADP, I set the problem camera to 192.168.254.20, DHCP off
on NVR: Set internal NIC address as 192.168.254.1, Mask = 255.255.255.0
Attach problem camera to NVR POE port D14 and reboot NVR.
Then, on NVR:
Cameras > select D14>...
Sorry for the misunderstanding, but with your suggestion, I can now see camera video on the NVR.
NVR> Camera>IP Camera shows the camera video
NVR> Camera > POE settings shows status = disconnected
NVR> Maintenance>Camera shows status = connected
NVR> Live View shows camera video...
The NVR lets me choose to add a camera manually using either plug-and-play or manually. Specifying plug-and-play results in "detecting IP camera" and it never moves forward. Specifying 'manual' , and using the IP address that the NVR has already assigned (which is auto-populated in pop-up...
Yes, I tried that. But the camera must have an IP address on the NVR internal subnet. I also tried giving the camera an IP address on the external subnet, in which case the NVR gives the error message " cannot add any more IP cameras" (there are open ports on the NVR, so this message does not...
The camera does not have an SD card.
When I tried manual mode, I first used SDAP to make sure DHCP is off, and set the camera IP address to 192.168.100.xx (This is the internal subnet). I have specified '100' instead of the default '254' subnet in the NVR settings.
