Wow thanks a lot for this. I've really been beating myself up trying to figure out how to access them. I have a 7716 and from what I have read it does have this function. I'm going to work on setting it up tonight thanks again
Thanks for the tip. I found another thread with a solution. Ran an ethernet cable from my router to a poe port on NVR. Changed IP and Subnet of computer to match POE ip/subnet. Ran ethernet from computer to router. Then I could connect to each camera @ 192.168.254.xxx
Thanks, when you say try subnet 255.255.0.0, do you mean at the NVR or at the router? The only connection SADP picks up is the NVR, which is @ 192.168.1.129. It won't pick up the cams at 192.168.254.xxx. I also can't access them through a browser
This is a bit complicated to explain but I will do my best. My router that my NVR is connected to has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. The NVR has an IP of 192.168.1.129. I could not get any of my cameras to connect on the NVR at 192.168.1.xxx, but the all are up and running at 192.168.254.xxx...
I think so, serial # on one of the cams is Ds-2cd2142fwd-i20150710bbwr527893537
The firmware on the cameras is 5.3.2 and 5.3.3, which from what I am seeing on Hikvision.com is newer than the firmware they have listed for that cam. Am I missing something here? Thanks for the help
I'm not sure how to explain what these cameras are doing at night, so I took a video. See below. They are blacking out and taking a few seconds to regain conscience. What do I need to do to fix this? Thanks
Well I just got off the phone with Hikvision tech support. They are telling me that you only have basic functionality in the NVR. All advanced settings including WDR have to be changed in the web interface of each individual camera. Does this sound right? Seems a bit silly to me to have to...
I checked to see if I could upgrade the cameras firmware but it looks like they are newer than 5.3.1 which is the current firmware on Hikvision.com. Any ideas? I have already upgraded the NVR firmware, I had to do that to get it to recognize these cameras
I can't seem to find the option for HDR. Am I looking in the wrong place? Please see the attached images. From the youtube videos I have seen, I should have more options under the configuration/image tab. Am I missing something here? Thanks for any help. One pic is logged into the NVR from...
My dad has an analog Speco system at his home, and needs a camera in his barn which is about 600' from his home. He wants wireless. I found this on Ebay...
Correct, I was using SADP and the browser when connected directly to LAN.
Thank you again. Updated the firmware in the NVR from 3.1.x to 3.3.4 and everything is working perfect now.
Well I could have sworn the sellers name was Hikvision, but after looking again it isn't, the item says "by Hikvision" under the title. The seller is CCTVONE. Link below. The serial number on one of the cams is 537773878 CAN ICES-3. All English writing on the label...
I have a 7716 DVR with 12 cameras. I have 2 2032's, 2 2335's and 8 2142's.
I got the 2 2032's programmed with IP's of 192.168.254.2 and 192.168.254.3.
I got the 2 2335's programmed with IP's of 192.168.254.4 and 192.168.254.5.
The DVR recognizes these 4 above cameras and works fine with them...
Thanks for the help. I looked around for a while and found someone using the password "123456789abc", which worked for me also. I thought they were all "12345" but obviously not.
I'm not sure what version of SADP, it was on the CD that came with the camera. How do I find this out?
Security shows active
Firmware on label is V5.3.0_150513
Thanks for the help. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by changing the PC IP and checking the camera status.
I got my 7716 NVR and a couple 2032 bullet cams today. Hooked the cams to the NVR and it doesn't recognize them. So I installed the SADP tool and it recognizes the cam. I update the ip address to 10.0.0.20 and default gateway to 10.0.0.1, put in the password, click save, and get an error...
Any reason I shouldn't put a dome camera in place of the one that is currently there? I like the look of it better than the bullet, but don't know if its practical or not.
Long story short, I had a burglary at one of my properties and couldn't identify the suspect because of the poor quality of the speco cameras. Its a shame because I paid a lot of money for them, but they just won't work for what I need. So I ordered a DS-7716NI-SP/16 NVR. I'm going to order...
