    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    It doesn't look like it. Now I can connect with the SDK and enable Telnet and SSH, but I still can not connect.

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    It did work with the Python TFTP updater, it just wasn't looking for the right filename. Here is "help" and "printenv. HKVS # help ? - alias for 'help' erase - erase flash except bootloader area format - format app_pri app_sec cfg_pri cfg_sec partition go - god - start...

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    Well, I'll be damned... I have been making things way more complicated that they were! For whatever reason, the camera is indeed asking for a firmware with a filename flag*23b05_1, and of course I can not give it that name under Windows. But the Python updater has a --filename parameter! $ sudo...

    It surely looks like there is something weird there, TFTP from server 192.168.1.128; our IP address is 192.168.1.64 Filename 'flag*23b05_1'. Load address: 0x42800000 Loading: * TFTP error: 'Invalid argument' (0) Starting again error: tftp.(error!) error: digicap oversize. -1 TFTP server not...

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    I actually had two of them around for a few years, but never used them. I am just not sure where to connect them on the camera (see image a few posts above). Guess I will have to solder the connector there?

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    Yes, but I can't go this way. Since there are differences on the protocol from HIKVISION to SAFIRE, the SDK gives me a password error (yes, the password is right). Same as if I try to connect with iVMS-4200 or iVMS-4500, or if I try to connect the camera to a Hikvision NVR with Hikvision...

    So my guess is that this would be were I need to connect the serial cable?

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    It is Hikvision OEM, not Hilook. The only firmware I found is the one on Hikvisioneurope, V5.5.111, just with a different build version that the one that comes with the camera.

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    Well, now you have. I have been using cameras from this OEM for many years (Safire). And this change has been here for I would say 1-2 years, there is something on their custom SAFIRE protocol to make it not work with Hikvision. It does not give any random "unable to connect" error, it gives a...

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    I can't even add the camera to Batch Config Tool. Their protocol somehow is different, if I try to add the device to iVMS-4200 I get a "wrong password" error, knowing that the password is right. So Batch Config Tool, Hikvison SDK, etc, I guess they all won't be able to connect because they all...

    Initial review of the DS-2CD2347G2-L(U) ColorVu 2.0 IP camera.

    They were both basically at default values, with shutter speed at 1/25 and the Acusense camera forced to day mode. We just wanted to post some sample screenshots on our blog, since I already had the 4MP Acusense camera I used the 4MP ColorVu to compare them...

    Initial review of the DS-2CD2347G2-L(U) ColorVu 2.0 IP camera.

    LOL, the balcony on the camera is the 10th floor, the one under it is also mine :D There is no neighbour above me, but the roof can be accessed easily for maintenance (elevetor machinery, air conditioning units, etc).

    I'm on a 9th-10th floor, someone could easily jump from the roof above me!

    Here are two screenshots comparing a DS-2CD2347G1-L (ColorVu) next to a DS-2CD2346G2-ISU/SL (Darkfighter). I am quite impressed!

    TFTP updating latest OEM Hikvision devices (manufacture date 05/2021)

    So, I had no luck TFTP updating OEM Hikvision cameras with new manufacturing dates. It seems they have changed something :( I am trying to update OEM E7S series camera. It will not take the firmware over the web interface (this is common). So when it happens I do it with TFTP, but I have been...

    Hikvision stops supporting HikConnect via WiFi on some cameras

    It depends on the series. The E3 series has Hik-connect support over wifi all the way to v5.5.97 firmware, it was removed on v5.5.98.

    Find the thief - Hikvision log attached

    The "Abnormal shutdown" is given when the device powers comes back. The unit says "Hey, I just turned on, but I see I did not power down normally last time, so somehow I was shutdown abnormally." Noone shut down the device over network. Noone accessed the device. Power was down, so the unit was...

    Find the thief - Hikvision log attached

    The illegal logins are from 18/Jul/21, a few days later. On 12/Jul/21 the device seems to be working fine until 16:41. After that, it comes back to life on 13/Jul/21 11:26 with an "Abnormal Shutdown" message, so basically the DVR was out of power for about 19 hours.

    Find the thief - Hikvision log attached

    No associated IP means it was done locally, with monitor and mouse. Shortly after the failed login attempts there was a login done right, so it was just a failed password by the local user.

    Hikvision stops supporting HikConnect via WiFi on some cameras

    I do not think so. But I also can not imagine why someone thought it would be a wise idea to disable Hik-connect over wifi on a camera that has wifi.

    Hikvision stops supporting HikConnect via WiFi on some cameras

    That just happened to myself with a couple of DS-2CD2121G1-IDW1 cameras (E3 series), I am glad I remembered this thread. A customer has one of these cameras working fine for a while, firmware 5.5.92 build 190227. So he buys another one, and is unable to get it working with wifi and Hik-connect...

    Hikvision Doorbell DS-KB8112-IM Issue: Can't get doorbell press alarms sent to multiple hik-connect accounts

    You bet. Just configure it from a virtual machine or something like that, do not install the plugin on a computer you care (I did with one of my main computers, I can not just wipe and reinstall Win10 because now I am unable to access Hikvision devices with IE). Using firmware v2.2.12 build...

    Hikvision Doorbell DS-KB8112-IM Issue: Can't get doorbell press alarms sent to multiple hik-connect accounts

    Yes, and no. It is 2MP, and it did solve the issue of calling to shared accounts; but the web interface is new, and the new web plugin messed up my IE access with older plugins, so now I can not use the computer I used to configure the DS-KB8113-IM unit to access other devices, which kinda...

    Hikvision Doorbell DS-KB8112-IM Issue: Can't get doorbell press alarms sent to multiple hik-connect accounts

    Calling to a shared Hik-connect account never worked for me with a DS-KB8112-IM. I kinda remember that I was told it might work using an indoor monitor, and then adding the monitor to the Hik-connect account and sharing the monitor. I think I did not even try that, and I replaced it with a...

    Hikvision DS-7204HWI-E1/A 4 Channel DVR

    That's a 4ch analog DVR. It only does WD1 video encoding (960x576 resolution), it can not even do 1 megapixel. It is not worth it, throw it away and get something more current/decent.

    DS-2CD2386G2-ISU LED always on at night?

    DS-2CD2347G1-LU is a ColorVu camera, DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL is an Acusense camera. I wouldn't call it an "upgrade" since they are completely different cameras, for different purposes, ColorVu are for 24/7 color image, Acusense are for people/vehicle detection. DS-2CD2347G1-LU does not even have IR...
