    LTS (Hikvision) NVR beeping won't stop

    Yes. Everything checked out fine. I can only figure a power event scrambled something and it just needed a reset.

    LTS (Hikvision) NVR beeping won't stop

    I just had this recently. Non-stop beeping, with all notifications off. The HDD self-tests all said normal, but the overall status was "abnormal." A check for bad sectors returned "there are too many bad sectors to continue." So I was about to just get a new hard drive, it's not like they are...

    Replace Interlogix TruVision

    I have a job I'm taking over after his original installer went out of business. He has an Interlogix TruVision NVR, and 8 IP cameras all plugged in directly. I know the old installer, so I have the NVR password. Everything on the system actually works, except the TruVision App. When I called...

    Need help TruVision NVR 10

    I just called them, same menu progression, on 3/5/2022. I got the message that "all Interlogix product support ended 12/31/2021."

    Intrusion Detection issue with PTZ

    I never found a solution. I just put my cameras on patrol and left it at that.

    Alternatives To Dahua Or Hikvision?

    I never said they were currently banned. I was partly in error as I forgot it only applied to government contracts, but I was quite well aware that currently private contractors and users could buy them.

    Alternatives To Dahua Or Hikvision?

    Whatever you look at, examine carefully who actually made them. Dahua and Hikvision make the overwhelming majority of cameras for other brand names, and a fair number also use their hardware with a proprietary firmware. A lot of the "security concerns" over Hik and Dahua are old. Both were...

    What app does Hikvision use for remote viewing?

    iVMS-4500 is depreciated. Use either Guarding Vision, or Hik-Connect. They are mutually exclusive, and you set up either one or the other in the NVR or camera configuration under Network, Advanced Settings, Platform Access. You should set up the account first, then once the camera or NVR is...

    How do I turn on and off auto-cycle via HTML? (NOT UI3!!)

    I have an install where the BI computer is in a rack, and feeds a distribution amp with its HDMI out. The idea is so the customer can view his cameras on the house TVs, and control them with the same RTI system that controls the video distribution. I'm using an authenticated HTTP driver on the...

    Intrusion Detection issue with PTZ

    If you right click, then open that video in a new tab, it plays, not sure what I should be converting it to to play directly, but it does work in new tab. Settings are as follows:

    Intrusion Detection issue with PTZ

    Here's an example. Contractor truck pulling in driveway, it follows only very briefly, then snaps back.

    Intrusion Detection issue with PTZ

    Thanks for the response. I watched that video too, before I set it up. I did not get the same great results. I have mine set now to only record on the intrusion detection, and more often than not, it follows whatever enters the zone for about five seconds, then snaps back to where it was. Once...

    Intrusion Detection issue with PTZ

    No ideas at all? I've seen this problem reported before, and no solutions were provided to those people either. Is it just a flaw in the camera's design? I have some trouble accepting that, as many haven't had the issue. I just wish I could get some ideas how to even track down what settings are...

    "Operation failed" in iVMS-4500

    Guarding Vision and Hik Connect are mutually exclusive. Register on one, and the other drops (as I learned the hard way). The Guarding Vison app is far nicer I think, though it has some issues. I've been using GUarding Expert (still on the Vison platform), but it looks dated and has some pretty...

    Intrusion Detection issue with PTZ

    I have an OEM version of a Hikvision PTZ (I believe the equivalent Hikvision model is DS-2DE5425W-AE). I have it set up for smart tracking, and have an intrusion detection area set up for the four most common presets, linked to smart tracking. It sort of works, but the problem I have is that it...
