    Here's how to read Hikvision serial numbers

    What does it mean if the model shows a 32ch NVR but the serial starts with a 16?

    Cant click Calendar for playback DS-7732N-E4

    Thanks for your reply, finally got it resolved and thought I update the thread. somehow Javascript got disabled while messing with the security settings in the internet options > security tab. Placing the "internet" tab to default level solved the issue.

    Cant click Calendar for playback DS-7732N-E4

    Wondering if anyone came across this bug, I no longer can click the blue arrows on the calendar for playback. The recordings are there as I can playback on the NVR itself without issues. They are highlighted in blue indicating there are recordings but are no longer clickable to change the...

    Lorex kit with external poe switch

    A friend just purchased the Costco lorex 4k kit and we realized it would be easier if we locate and run all cameras to a poe switch in the basement, then from the basement to the NVR using one wire. This will prevent us from running all cameras to he NVR which is in the bedroom. Wondering if...

    Honeywell Lynx GSM services

    Thank you for the detailed response, that would have been an even a nicer setup using a newer more interactive panel, but still serves the purpose of self monitoring, as long as the eyezon service doesn't shut down or decides to collect in the future.

    Honeywell Lynx GSM services

    In the market for an alarm system that can send SMS alerts and possibly push notifications without a monitoring service. so these alerts would be directly between the panel and myself or other family/friends I add to a list. Can the Lynx do this with its GSM module? And possibly push...

    DS-2CD2442FWD-IW Cube wifi issue

    The adapter that worked is by APD (Asian Power Devices) and seems to be OEM for a few big names like Kodak, Western Digital. In case someone is looking for a descent adapter.

    DS-2CD2442FWD-IW Cube wifi issue

    Problem was solved using a different 1.5a power adapter, lesson learned here, if you see a 2a power adapter for $5 with free shipping, you are risking it. Even though thats all you see now online. Power lights and IR powering on also are not good indicators of sufficient amperage.

    DS-2CD2442FWD-IW Cube wifi issue

    Just tried a regular Ethernet with the DC power also connected and no go. POE and DC power combined then unplugging the POE is the only way to get wifi to work. I have two cams like this.

    DS-2CD2442FWD-IW Cube wifi issue

    Good question Tritongr, and the only way I finally got things to work is by connecting both, POE and DC power and then disconnecting the POE. If I plug the DC power from off state, the wifi will not come on. My next test is to see if this will work with a none poe cable. Anyone know whats going...

    DS-2CD2442FWD-IW Cube wifi issue

    Just changed to DHCP for WLan and the camera was finally picked up by SADP for a few seconds then disappeared again. It gave the ip and default as 0.0.0.0 this time though, this is while on 12v DC power.

    DS-2CD2442FWD-IW Cube wifi issue

    I have two DS-2CD2442FWD-IW which connect no problem via POE but not on 12v dc power. The camera is able to connect to the WIFI network while on POE, and am able to access the cam via the Wireless IP address assigned but only while connected via the POE. It also registers two IPs one for Lan...

    Where are the Huisun 10x ptz's on Ali?

    The Dome is not to be compared with a bullet as its 3x as large, plus many preferred the bullet over domes, but if your aware of a decently priced bullet PTZ please share. I have tested several Dahua turrets using Onvif with the Hik NVR and motion triggers would not work. The Huisun used...

    Where are the Huisun 10x ptz's on Ali?

    That dome was not out two years ago when everyone was purchasing these Huisuns, at the time anything close to specs to the Huisun was $700 and up. Furthermore it is a Dauhua and will lose motion detection triggers/feature when using a Hikvision NVR. I also would prefer a mini bullet over a...

    Where are the Huisun 10x ptz's on Ali?

    In hindsight what would you have recommended as an alternative two years ago (older model) when everyone was purchasing this cam? And what are you recommending today? I have 5 installed without issues and ready to install more but would like to hear of other options.

    4mp Turret washed out image

    Camera has been fine today with Temps near 40F and since I wanted to test outside I swiped cameras with another right next to it aiming in a different direction. Once the temp dropped to 30F it again went offline on the new cat6 line. It seems anything below freezing has an effect only on this cam.

    4mp Turret washed out image

    When this happens, changing exposure or any setting has no effect on the camera, everything seems to freeze. The one next to it is on the same settings and without these issues. So far so good tonight, will see what happens in the AM when it switches to day mode again, but it just switched to...

    4mp Turret washed out image

    The image above is factory defaults exposure is at 1/25, WDR off. ironically enough, once the temp reached 32F this afternoon the image was corrected on its own. Will see what happens tonight when temps drop again. This cam is facing North but I have another Turret and a Huisun right next to...

    4mp Turret washed out image

    Its been very cold up in the Northeast 12 degrees on average, and been having some problems with one of the Turrets, other 5 are fine. Each morning I get a washed out image, and once I factory reset, the image turns black with no link message on the NVR. Still can access the cam without a...

    So wonder why my NVR being hacked by UK minister of defence ?

    Make sure these are not your own mobile phone's IP addresses. Which you can only see by going into field test mode by calling *3001#12345#* then enter pdp context info and then 0 to retrieve your IP, which can differ from the IP revealed by an online ARIN check via a browser. If you do own that...

    Klasipca?

    I have 5 Huisun v1 installed, 2 for LPR and 3 fixed. I think they averaged $140 a cam. They have been great performers for our needs, every plate is captured and awesome night shots outdoor. When these were purchased one Hik PTZ was over $600, the Huisun was a sound decision then as again they...

    Aliexpress Hikvision MultiLanguage 4Mp Bullet - Where are they?

    DS-2CD3345-I 4MP $66 shipped 1024 pieces sold. These are record lows for this turret. Entire store appear to be priced way below market value. I also never had the need to update these cameras and they are only accessed through the NVR...
