    How to update W-NVR5208-8P with 2.610 firmware?

    Hello, I also have a older NVR5208-8P from 2016 and considering updating firmware but recently NVR has been losing password & system info on reboots. I’m thinking maybe the internal system coin battery needs replaced but not sure. Have you replaced your battery? Thanks!

    Older Dahua NVR5208-8p CMOS battery change?

    Hey guys, 5.5 yr old NVR running fine until recently username/password resets and camera channels got changed around. Both occurrences happened during NVR resets, first one was weekly maintenance and second was user initiated. Thinking maybe battery low and not keeping system info? This was my...

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    Hello, I’ve been reading through this thread but haven’t seen anything mentioned about configuring SD card as back up storage. I’m using a new 5216-16p with 6 TB Purple HD from Andy and the interface looks a lot different than my older 5208-8p. I haven’t seen anything related to the SD cards in...

    Dahua Starlight fixed lens camera no display

    Hello All, need a little help with a new install I'm supporting. Ran into a problem with this camera and a 5216-16P NVR. Camera worked initially, then was unplugged to move the location by about 10 feet using the same wire. When hooked everything back up, NVR didn't see the camera at all. *...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Thanks for the response Looney2ns! Yes, I understand the varifocal purpose, was thinking more during install if I could use idmss or dmss apps while on the ladder. I need to try Tinycam Pro again, I played with it for a short time & had trouble finding my Dahua NVR & cams. Already had the...

    Hello All, can the varifocal zoom be controlled through the app now? Seems like I recall reading a thread that this was possible with a newer firmware release last year but having trouble finding it now. Thanks!

    gDMSS Plus doesn't work ... gDMSS HD works ?!?

    My experience with the Plus apps, both Android & Apple, seems unstable. They work fine sometimes, other times push notifications stop then start again. Can you see other cams thru the Plus app?

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Still no success in getting IVS Tripwire to work on this Starlight, confirmed IVS Smart Plan is on. Same as mentioned above, I can add a rule but cannot draw any lines. Also noticed IVS doesn't show up in the storage schedule.

    Ok, still trying to get IVS to work on this Starlight since it's not possible through my 5208 NVR. While making some other adjustments with my laptop plugged into a NVR Poe port, I tried to set up IVS Tripwire direct into Starlight without success. I can add the rule but when I try to add the...

    Curious if you have learned anymore with your testing? I've recently started playing with line crossing with some success on my 5208 but trying to eliminate neighborhood cats from triggering.

    iDMSS Plus "user is locked" error after app update

    Yes, seems to be just the iDMSS Plus app issue as the Lite versions signs in fine. I just started using Plus so I could play with push notifications and Android Plus version works ok again. Deleted the iDMSS Plus off my phone with intentions of reinstalling but didn't see it listed in the App...
