Hi - Not sure what I'm doing wrong here, hoping someone can help. I'm just testing out basic camera functionality, so I had hoped to manually record a minute or so of video, and verify a video file shows up on my NAS share. I set up the storage, with the following info: - IP: IP of my NAS -...

Just in case anyone else finds this useful, I found the checkbox to uncheck under Advanced Settings -> ordinary event -> abnormal tab -> select Hard disk for errors from the drop down -> Uncheck Audible alarm.

So I messed up and flashed my DS-2CD2432F-IW when I shouldn't have. So I unbricked to 5.2.5 but it's in Chinese. So I was going to use the MTD hack to switch to English. This also happened earlier today before I bricked it, and happened just now when I added the NAS share while trying to...

Hi - So I was one the dumb ones that blindly updated this firmware to 5.3.0 (DS-2x12,2x32_v5.3.0_150513.zip which I got off ftp.hikvisionusa.com). Suddenly I couldn't find camera on network anymore using SADP or web interface. So I followed the unbricking thread here (minus mtd5 and mtd6 since...

Re: Tried updating firmware on DS-2CD2432F-IW, can no longer access it. Did I brick i Nothing picked up by the SADP tool or the iVMS tool. Will start reading the the hikvision section....

Hi, same guy, new issue. I tried to update the firmware on my DS-2CD2432F-IW. I went to the ftp and got DS-2x12,2x32_v5.3.0_150513.zip and flashed it. 1) Did I by chance grab the wrong firmware? 2) How do I confirm if I bricked my camera? I tried putting the camera and my laptop (IP...

OK, thanks guys, I missed this part of the interface when I was wandering around....sorry for being thick. So I got a successful test, however when I try and Save it tells me there can't be a backslash in the user name. My NAS is setup to use Active Directory credentials, so not sure what I do...

So I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I can't get this thing to record. Under local configuration, I have a UNC path defined (\\server\share). Under Basic Event I have Enabled Motion Detection checked (at all hours), and under Normal Linkage, I have Trigger Channel checked. I went a danced...

Thank you!!! I will try this tonight!

I purchased this DS-2CD2432F-IW camera per the recommendation of some folks here. I was hoping it would have the option to record only motion detected events. I'm still fighting the through the various options (this one's a little more complicated than the last few I set up), but can someone...

Got it...thanks!!

Well I'm sure to sound like a noob over this one - I was hoping to power via POE, is there a special switch I need to throw on the camera for this, or do I need a special type of router to offer POE? The manual was a bit cryptic...

Hi - I took a recommendation from the following thread and got a DS-2CD2432F-IW: https://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/5711-Difficulty-in-finding-the-IP-camera-that-I-need-any-advice-based-on-my-requirements?p=49757#post49757 I finally got around to plugging it in, and nothing seems to...

Re: Difficulty in finding the IP camera that I need, any advice based on my requireme Thank you all very much for the feedback!! This was indoor for now, outdoor if I like the camera and interface. I wasn't even aware POE factor, and seems to make much more sense instead of Wifi+separate...

Hi folks - I seem to be having a very difficult time finding an wireless IP camera that fits my needs. I've tried numerous cameras off Amazon (poor quality and features), and recently tried one of Samsungs cameras...but none meet my needs. Any chance someone here has some ideas on cameras I...
