    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    Right now I am using 3.3.2 I use continuous motion detection. So, it only records motion. I have set it to 10secs either side of the detection. This seems to work well for my purpose and I can record a few weeks usually with my 2TB drive unless I get a spider web on the cameras at night. Also...

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    Hey folks, It's been a while. I have been building a new video editing PC and have been busy at work. After running the set-up for some weeks now, I have got some comments and observations. At first, I was not concerned with the 'noisy' power supply unit fan in the machine. I am now. I don't...

    Hikvision Email Setup Fail?

    Even try a re-boot after you change it. Mine does not work with the SSL selected. Your modem could be blocking the ports you are choosing? There are so many things it could be. You just have to keep trying things.

    Hikvision Email Setup Fail?

    You will have try those different combinations and see what will work. Also, whenever you make a change, make sure that you press save. Try a different email address. I am guessing that you have the rest of the network set-up okay? You'll get it. Chris

    Try port 25 instead of 587. Also, I am guess you just made a typing on the senders address? Try smtp.email.msn.com for the outgoing SMTP Server

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    I'm happy with mine John. I have seen them from other sellers at cheaper prices since, but I am pleased with the purchase. I don't know if E&M are the best, there are others and I bought 2 of cameras elsewhere, but the fact that the NVR was an "English version" apealed to me. Make sure you check...

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    I didn't have any of these issues, but I must have a different NVR to you given the firmware that you used? I have always run in 1080p. There is an issue with the latest Chrome and web components as talked about on this forum. I now use IE. You might want to return back to the default factory...

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    I think I read somewhere in the firmware notes that it does block downgrades. To make it quite clear, my NVR unit was purchased from an Aliexpress seller. It came shipped in an English retail box with an Australian 240v plug, English instructions and English firmware matching the numbers on...

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    I have just successfully upgraded from 3.3.0 to 3.3.1 with no issues so far. Already, I have noticed a couple of differences in the menu layout. Once I upgraded, dynamic analysis for motion was ticked on all channels, so I had to turn that off. Everything else seems fine after 10-20mins of...

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    Works fine!. It was a bit screwy to start with and I ended up doing a re-set, but since then, no dramas. I am about to do the 3.3.1 now! My unit was in a white and red box when I received it and was an 'overseas' model. Chris

    Hikvision 2132 cams and DS-7608NI-E2/8P problems.....wits end and beyond

    Cool! Oh, and sorry I was half drunk when I replied to your post. I mis-read it. I read PoE instead of PPPoe and it confused me . LOL I hope it all goes well! These things are a little tricky. Since I updated the firmware and re-set everything on mine, I can no longer get the connection up on...

    Hikvision 2132 cams and DS-7608NI-E2/8P problems.....wits end and beyond

    You don't want to hear this, but my suggestion would be to start over. I would re-set the parameters back to the beginning and start by running with the NVR first and get the cameras talking to it and working 100%. Plug a monitor directly to the NVR. Use the SADP tool and get everything back to...

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    Hey everyone. I am still enjoying the results I am getting from my set-up so far. The individual camera settings are a little challenging, but all in all it's all going well. I am pleased with the fact that by using motion detection, even after weeks of recording the 2gig HDD still has plenty of...

    Can't get live page to work in Chrome.

    This just happened to me as well when I upgraded. I have gone back to IE and it seems faster now with the latest version. I'll stick to that for now. Chris

    You have to install the Hikvision video plugin and check the browser to make sure that it isn't blocking it. http://www.hikvision.com/europe/download_more.asp?id=1382 Chris

    HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P - some pics and first impressions

    Update the firmware to what?? I have the latest firmware. It's well documented on here that the current firmware for this machine does not have that virtual host option in the firmware. If I have already just run this cable, what advantages would I gain apart from getting a port back? Chris

    Alright, time for an update. I have managed to download the iVMS-4500 app onto my phone and get it up and running within the system. At home I can quickly and easily log in and see what's going on live, playback recorded footage and take snapshots etc all using my home wireless network. I...

    Help needed setting up HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P

    What Dave said, but I had to change my 8000 port to 8008 as my router had a USB server built in on port 8000. Watch the videos. AGAIN! It's not so complicated. Chris PS On your NVR the IPv4 Default gateway will be something like 192.168.1.1 and IPv4 Address 192.168.1.** My router has an...

    The incoming port will most likely be the "Port range" box. So you would have something like this: Service name Port Range Local IP Local Port Protocol Hikvision HTTP 8585 192.168.1.** 80 both Hikvision RTSP...

    Help needed setting up HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P

    So in order to get access from outside, you need to set-up port forwarding within your router. The router will have a Port Forwarding feature which will allow you to open up the three ports to access the NVR. 8000, 554 and 80. You can see that I changed port 80 to 8585 and 8000 to 8005 on the...

    Try following the videos. Use the address I have in the 3rd photo. You can only test that your set-up works from a device outside your network. Chris
