    4k output display and DS-7608NI-E2/8P

    spec sheet has HDMI/VGA output: 1-ch, resolution: 1920 × 1080P /60Hz At least I would be able to see HD So , fenderman, using the built in webserver on a browser for viewing and admin tasks would be 'nicer' on the eyes then, without being too much of a drain on system resources?

    No video feed for Hik-Connect

    Just hooked up all my cameras at work to nvr yesterday (Sunday), and by the time I got home to test out Hik-Connect at home most of the cameras had gone into ir mode. Video was playing back ok as I noticed the clock incrementing with the osd. This morning I tried to access the feeds and it...

    4k output display and DS-7608NI-E2/8P

    And another Q, If you use the nvr's built in GUI then that would not be slowing down the network as much if not, at all, compared to using the web based gui as the web based gui has to send and receive information back and forth to the router?

    IP address from camera to nvr

    I have tested all my cameras via a poe cable and activated them via the sadp tool when the nvr had not been connected. When doing this I changed the ip addresses in sadp to that of my local network. e.g. 192.168.0.11 , 192.168.0.11 etc. Cameras are fine when looking through their individual web...

    4k output display and DS-7608NI-E2/8P

    Can anyone tell me if they have hooked this nvr to a 4k pc monitor? I will be buying a 4k monitor for work purposes and I want the monitor to be able to switch (via a UHD Kvm switch) between pc mode and the actual gui of the nvr(not the web based gui). Thanks

    Camera suggestions for a Retail Shop environment

    Nah, its pretty much going to be implemented as soon as I get it. The camera setup swann is selling atm is $1800 aud not installed for 8ch nvr and only 4 cameras. Pretty easy to decide whether to buy online or in-store even when factoring aftermarket warranty.

    Camera suggestions for a Retail Shop environment

    Sorry maybe should have stated that. So regardless of where I buy and the firmware issues etc. The camera / nvr selection I am looking at should be a better option than the over the counter Swan / Dlink retail options?

    Camera suggestions for a Retail Shop environment

    If everything works out of the box, then I'm not really interested in keeping it updated. Can you port forward this model without a firmware update (in case I want to)? Re calculated savings? If you mean NVR v BI standalone, for me the NVR is cheaper to buy than having to buy standalone PC, POE...

    Dumb question...

    Sorry, new to all this but......... Why would you need to set a camera to record all when you will set up a camera to record motion only? What purpose is it to have video capture of nothing happening when you can set to motion only? What is the purpose of the 24/7 footage AND motion footage...

    Looking at the Hikvision website and it lists their Network cameras as 2-line, 4-line and 6-line. What's the difference ? Tried googling and forum search but no go. Thanks

    Camera suggestions for a Retail Shop environment

    Having a look at the Camera Lens Reference Diagram that has been stickied, is there any reason why you would not increase the lens greater than the 2.8 / 4 mm? In a shop situation I would have thought that a detailed view of around 5m would be ideal, perhaps using the 6 - 8mm lens ? What is the...
