    Hikvision DS-7616NI-SE/P Firmware Update

    Hi cigar7 Re 1. if your nvr lan output is going to a switch / router then connect an extra cable to one of the nvr camera inputs and connect that to the switch / router as well.... this will give lan / web interface access to all your cameras as well as the nvr. Re 2. pass at the moment, but...

    DVR automatically shuts down

    How many cameras are connected ? What stream resolutions are being recorded ? Full details are really required, everything apart from shoe size and mothers maiden name would be of great help in identifying the problem. But I'll hazard a guess that as its got quite a low spec, the processor is...

    How to run network cable for camera?

    Every branch of technology (and nature) has different methods and requirements of termination.. for the purpose of the common old 'cat lan cable' then the method is to stick an rj45 plug on the end, the science is not quite as demanding in its method as RF and higher, but the basics still boil...

    Who has their own business?

    Go for it :cool: Speak to a local accountant that deals with small businesses, they will know all the answers. Don't get me going on that subject ... staff are sent by the devil to cause you grief and pain. Every trade / profession has their version of them.

    which poe injector do i get?

    Some Hikvision cams (don't know which cam you have ordered and you kept it a secret, lol) have 2 options to provide the power input, POE and a 12v input, so injector or splitter method is ok.. but (always a but) due to cable resistance over longer lengths, the splitter method may not provide...

    Current Known Problems?

    As far as I'm aware.. no A lot of 'issues / problems' that are reported and asked about, can be avoided by RTFM.. however in defence of of peeps, the manual is a bit of a steep curve and could (maybe) of been written differently. A prior knowledge of related things helps :cool:

    hikvision DS-2CD3332-I and DS-2CD2332-I, difference???

    The odds are that if purchased from China then the region code will not be English, which may or may not be an issue. (lots of threads on the subject)

    Question on Hikvision 24VAC on DS-2DE4582-AE

    Bad idea sticking 12V DC on an expensive camera that requires an AC input (802.3at devices can involve centre tapped transformers that have a decent enough impedance to ac but are effectively a short circuit to dc, this can generate great warmth and gnashing of teeth ) Options.. keep your 12v...

    seriously?? $10k for a camera??

    Maybe alibaba has a similar policy as ebay and its just a work around. Creating a listing costs money, so when all the items are sold then the seller has 2 options 1. Delete the listing and create a new one when stock is available again... this means they have to pay to list again 2. Just...

    Loosing Signal on DS-2CD2032-I

    But... is it failing cos its faulty, or is it failing because the camera isn't negotiating with the port, and thus the POE is saying 'if you wont talk nicely to me, then your not getting any' ? (just like home life :eek:)
