    Changing Hikvision NVR

    That's correct. It doesn't stick when saved so it is continuously recording and not on motion. I can go click on events then save it but it won't save it. Just checked and I'm in IE11.

    Changing Hikvision NVR

    Now you said that it does make sense. I wasn't sure if it was something I overlooked but seen as it's all working fine it does make sense. I managed to get the IP numbers just now for the cams by going into Network, advanced settings then ticking the "enable virtual host" box then save. I went...

    Changing Hikvision NVR

    I've managed to sort out viewing on my phone but the issue I have with wanting it to record in motion only is still there. As you stated it does show as continuous in the storage schedule. I've set it to "event" and then saved it but it won't move on from continuous. I'm on firmware version...

    Changing Hikvision NVR

    The new NVR is now in and on. Just a couple of head scratchers - both cams are recording and won't seem to go into motion sensor despite the enable motion and enable dynamic analysis boxes ticked or unticked. The areas are highlighted on both cams and just seem to record constantly no matter...

    Changing Hikvision NVR

    Following on from my last post where my NVR wouldn't boot up - well it did then decided to finally die over the weekend - Hikvision NVR not booting up I've ordered a new NVR which should arrive tomorrow. Is it pretty straight forward to replace the old with the new and is there anything in...

    Hikvision NVR not booting up

    A big thanks for taking your time out to write that reply with some very useful information. It all seems to be working fine at the moment although I will get around to doing those checks and reply once I've done them. Great website forum this one :)

    Hikvision NVR not booting up

    It's an odd one for sure. I switched it on last night and it started to boot up with the intro then I heard a click from inside the NVR then the intro to Hikvision embedded vanished. I turned it on this morning and hey presto It's back on and fully working again. The firmware version installed...

    Hikvision NVR not booting up

    I spoke too soon. I turned it off to change the cams back to position and now it won't switch on. At best I get the start where the NVR is setting up then it dies.

    Hikvision NVR not booting up

    Once again, thanks for your replies. I got as far as disconnecting the LAN cable from the NVR and plugged it into my laptop. The next thing that happened was the wizard screen came up on the monitor. I had to log back in and hey presto everything is back to how it was. I can now see the NVR via...

    Hikvision NVR not booting up

    Thanks for your quick reply and advice. It did have the latest firmware (at least it did when I last checked which is often). That little lot that you explained is probably a bit over my head. I'm ok doing firmware upgrades and that's about it. I think if I have to throw some money at getting...

    Hikvision NVR not booting up

    I've got a Hikvision 4ch DS7604NI hooked up to 2 dome cams. It's been working fine until yesterday. It has power but it is not booting up. Before I could use it in Internet Explorer, phone apps and through my TV monitor. Now I can't see it anywhere. It's not in SADP, IVMS, my BT modem and...

    Hikvision DS-7604NI-E1 / 4P/A - stopped recording

    Quick update - Upgraded the firmware to V3.4.2 build 160129 and it's back to recording although I've lost the link now to the older www.hik-online.com in DDNS. I've registered with hik-connect.com and all seems to be working, apart from when going to network - basic settings -tcp/ip. My prefered...

    Hikvision DS-7604NI-E1 / 4P/A - stopped recording

    Had a power cut on Sunday and it's stopped recording again. Since then I can no longer view the cams on my mobile phone via IVMS4500 and it shows up HCNetSdkError:0 although I can still see them on my PC and tablet. I've also done a format on my HDD to see if that would start the recordings...

    Hikvision DS-7604NI-E1 / 4P/A - stopped recording

    Thanks for your reply but it has started recording again. Nothing on the logs and nothing else out the ordinary either.

    Hikvision DS-7604NI-E1 / 4P/A - stopped recording

    I've just noticed that my nvr that I've had for 2 years or so has stopped recording for the past 3 days. I've done a reboot of both cams and the nvr and still nothing. Anything I should be looking to do?

    Is is easy enough to an add a cam to this set up?

    Is is easy enough to an add a cam to this set up?

    Ok thanks. I guess I was just making sure that as the 2CD2532F is an older model like my NVR that the new range of Hi watch and Hi look will work as plug and play with my existing set up.

    Is is easy enough to an add a cam to this set up?

    I bought and installed the below kit about 3 years ago. Hikvision 4 channel NVR with POE (DS-7604NI-E1-4P) 1 x Hikvision DS-2CD2532F-I 3MP 2.8mm Mini Dome Cam. It has worked well since and done everything I've needed to do. I've not had any need to do any updates to it. I'm thinking of...

    Day and night with 2532

    Thanks, will give that a go. The picture is actually ok when the security lights come on so it's not a real concern. I'll have a play with it tonight when it's dark and go from there. One thing i have noticed and that is the price increase for the Hikvision gear in the UK. Anyone else noticed...

    Day and night with 2532

    The day picture is good but the night picture is dire. This is using a 2.8mm. I'm aware that it has a limited night time range and after some advice today I've turned the smart IR off to see if that makes it any better. I'll check tonight what it's like. There are 3 security floodlights that...

    Hikvision 7604NI-E1-4P questions

    Quick update. My password works in SADP as I can change the ip addy for the NVR. When I start the NVR and it asks for the password it shows it as admin. I still can't log on via IE and I'm presuming it's the user name that has changed. I've tried the the usual admin, Admin, ADMIN variations but...

    Hikvision 7604NI-E1-4P questions

    I've finally got around to mounting my 2532 on the front of the house. I've plugged the NVR into a monitor so I can adjust the cam and now for some reason (probably user error), I can't view the cam on live player nor get it show a picture in ivms4200. On live player it states my username...

    Looking to add another IP cam but which one if these

    I need (or want :) ) to add up to another two cameras to my Hikvision 7604NI-E1-4P NVR. I've got a 2532IWS 2.8mm 3MP using POE - which isn't that good for night time use for where I originally bought it for - it isn't the end of the world and I've worked out where I can put up to another 2 and...

    Can't connect my 2532

    Sorted and 1st part done. I made the mistake of entering what I thought I'd already entered as my username as something else. I changed it to admin and voilà, all done and running on wifi. I can't believe something as menial as that took me ages. School boy error to be fair but all the same...

    Thanks for the reply :cool: I'm using v2.2.3.2 Build 150325 The company who I got it from are totally useless and have stopped replying to emails despite there claim of free 2 years support :shame: I'm also looking for an additional camera and was thinking of the 2142 as it seems to have...

    Can't connect my 2532

    Had another go at it this morning. Now shows as inactive in SADP and won't accept password. Tried doing another password reset and still no good. Not sure what to do now as at a loss. v5.3.0 build 150513

    Can't connect my 2532

    Come to think of it I did do a password reset using the link from here. Would that of done it some harm? I can still change or think I can change ip's in SADP though.

    I'm getting page can't be found on both IE and Chrome on windows 10. I've just kicked my old laptop into life using windows 7 and that has IE and Mozilla Firefox and on MF it states connection timed out and on IE it states IE cannot display the webpage. The laptop ip is 192 168 1 67 and I've...

    Can't connect my 2532

    I had a go at doing this just before Christmas but had to give up before I went away. I've now returned and want to get it up and running. To do a quick recap. I've got the camera connected to a power supply and network cable from the camera to my laptop. In SADP it shows the camera as active...
