    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    Did you try TFTP as mentioned in this thread? It is really easy as described in my Jan 20 post. If you read through the early parts of this thread you will see where to get the TFTP program.

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I downloaded the latest firmware onto USB from home and applied it that way. I am curious to see if it would have worked if I applied them in sequential order. Not going to find out ;)

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    Update: The TFTP procedure worked flawlessly for the 5 cams. All I did was start the software then plug in the cam and the update took 2 minutes. I unplugged the cam and plugged back into the NVR POE port and it showed as a plug and play device with an image. Cam and PC only were plugged into...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    So I attempted to upgrade 6 DS 2CD2332-I cams via a DS-7608ni-E2/8P NVR using the cam upgrade option on the recorder; only 1 cam worked and I cannot access the other 5 (they were working fine prior to my screw-up). Didn't realize I had to update firmware in sequence and went for goal by...

    Hello from NE Pennsylvania, total newbie with some questions

    Hi Watson, Scranton PA here; been installing cams for about 8 years now. I agree mostly with the comments above. I have installed mostly Dahua and Hikvision NVRs and cams for customers. I have used separate POE switches and POE ready NVRs. Frankly the POE ready (plug and play) NVRs are the...

    Cold Weather? CMIP 3032 No Connection

    Not sure if cold played a role this morning; it was only -4F but one of my LTS CMIP 3032s dropped the network connection. It is connected to a Linksys 8 port POE, all other cams connected to this switch are working. So I took it off the house and brought it to the switch, plugged it in and the...

    Missing recording gaps

    I've noticed that with the Hiks I have connected to a dahua NVR using SmartPss for playback. Funny thing is when I went to play back the same footage on an older version of PSS there were no gaps. There were also no gaps when using playback via browser interface.

    Recording Resolution

    Hi All! I always get confused on the recording resolution specs. I'm interested in the DS-7608NI-SE/8P and 6 2CD2332-I and will probably have them set to 2MP - all at 7-12 FPS. I may set a few of them to 3MP. Will the recorder be able to handle at least 6 cams recording a combined 12 MP? Is...

    Hik 2332 Pics

    Just wanted to show the Hik 2332 Turret 2.8 MM example of a wide shot over a parking lot on the 2MP setting. It is mounted on the side of the house and there is 1 White LED Floor at the far corner and 2 LED spots above the camera pointed towards the cars and alley. I have the shutter set to...

    Insects and Cameras

    I spray a little Ortho insect killer around the camera area. Helps for a month or so, just be careful not to spray the lens cover. You can also spray on a rag and rub area. There is also Terro spider spray...good stuff.

    ivms4200 remote viewing: keep getting "live view failed"

    Did you try a different HTTP port on each device and open those ports on the router?

    Playback Zoom on Hik NVR

    Anyone know if there is a way to use digital zoom while in Playback on Hikvision's DS-7104NI-SL/W NVR? The customer is only using the NVR's playback over the LAN to see footage. I was avoiding installing 4200 only because the user is a bit technically challenged.

    Amazon/hikvision

    Thanks for the link! Just installed a 2232-I that I purchased from this link. I am 3 hours away from the seller and it arrived 1 business day early. Came in Hikvision box with V5.2.0 build 140721. Cam initially did not power with separate power supply but did immediately power up over a POE...

    Eyesurv ION NVR Review

    Can CMS be used in conjunction with a PSS on an analog system? I thinking of a poor man's hybrid where I hook up the ION to the same switch as the 4 Ch analog Eyesurv and view both systems on PSS over the network. If not can I do this with the other Eyesurv's NVRs?

    Vivotek IP8362

    This has been a little more grainier at night since I adjusted Iris levels. During the day it would periodically show a quick burst of white across the entire image, then reset to the original image. Played around with settings until the white bursts stopped but the image suffers at night.

    What apps do you guys use to access your cameras?

    Live Cams Pro from Eggman Technologies on the Iphone - love it for the Vigil server as well as a great colloection of cam views from across the world. Idmss pro for my Dahua at home. My only complaint with Live Cams is PTZ controls are reverse. The only direction that works correctly is...
