Hi I added SMS notification to trigger actions on one of my cameras and I can't get it to work. I know this feature worked about 6mo ago. Using latest version of BI, set cell provider appropriately (Verizon), confirmed that email notification works, BI server is allowed outbound access by my...

Hi Finally organizing my network closet and getting a rack. I have the 9632 Hikvision NVR loaded with 8 HD's so it is heavy.I have the rack mounts that came with the unit. Anybody have any experience rack mounting one of these? Seems like a lot of weight to support from the front rack mount...

Looking at the Dahua starlights to replace a couple of old Hikvision turrets I have outside. The ultra low light 3MP Hik's are hard to find now esp in longer focal lengths. Will I loose any functionality with a Hikvision NVR? Need motion detection, and line crossing would be nice.

I just bought a Hik 2CD2H85FWD-ISZ camera off an Aliexpress vendor. Have had pretty good luck in the past buying a bunch of the low-light Hik turrets. There was no factory seal on the box and the camera had obviously been repackaged. Installed outdoors and was very pleased with the image...

Just installed OpenVPN using a raspberry pi server. Very easy to install and set up. Works great to access Hikvision NVR using iPhone and iVMS. Having trouble connecting to the BI server by VPN. Worked fine before w port 81 forwarded. I can connect using a browser by VPN but not the BI iPhone...

Has anybody successfully integrated BI with a zwave hub? There seem to be a couple products that advertise the capability but based on some initial research fall short in actual implementation. The Homeseer S6 was one I looked at.

I am looking for reliable notification of movement in my driveway. Too many false alarms using motion and VCA detection with spiders, shadows, etc. Would like to use some wireless PIR sensors that can trigger my NVR alarm inputs. Need 200 ft range outdoor suitable. Spent a lot of time...

Looking for a wireless PIR system I could use to trigger a camera or NVR with a basic closed circuit type output. Capability for multiple sensors would be ideal. Thanks

i have a prospective buyer for a Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP/16 who has Revo cameras purchased from a big box store. Assuming these are IP does anyone know if they will work with the Hikvision NVR? Thanks

For DS-76XX, 77XX, 96XX I8 NVRs ver 3.4.92 170518 Anybody try it??

I am planning a spring project to install a camera at the beginning of my driveway. Looking at about 250ft of a buried conduit run with a couple of 45 degree bends. Have done this several times on a smaller scale and have lubricant etc. Concerned about the high frictional forces over such a long...

I am considering a Dahua camera for a Hikvision NVR (9632-I8). I have had problems with the Hikvision 2X42 cameras and motion detection, and tech support has stopped responding to my emails. Looking for a 4MP fixed turret camera for inside monitoring. My question is are the analytic functions...

I just completed an upgrade to Hikvision 9632 NVR. I have 20 Hikvision cameras on a 48 port POE switch. Noticing a peculiar issue with 4 cameras: 3 of them are Hikvision 2342W and one is a 2142FWD. All have firmware 5.4.1. On playback the event line is solid green but playback is perfect...
