Hi All, I currently have some hikvision cameras (DS-2CD2H85FWD-IZS) connected into a 7608NI-I2 NVR but need to move the NVR so am trying to move the cameras to my POE switch instead. I've moved one so far by giving it a static ip in the same network as the NVR LAN IP whilst still connected to...

Hi All, I have a Hikvision DS 7608NI-I2/8p at the moment and have 8 cameras connected to it. Thinking of getting another one for redundancy. I did want to get one more camera but I read that the number of camera shouldn’t exceed the number of ports on the NVR. All cameras are connected...

Hi, wondering if anyone can shed some light on how the NetHDD feature works. I have a HikVision DS7608ni-i2/8p NVR and have setup my synology nas. In the NetHDD section of the NVR config, I can successfully search for the NAS and see the file share folder, add it and format it. The NVR does...

Hi all, From the web portal I can configure my cams and view the live feed using chrome on my Mac. When I try log directly into the cams I get an error that the live feed doesn’t work and I need a plugin. I’m not sure that the real cause since I use the same browser to configure my NVR without...

Hi, I just recently had 7x DS-2CD2H85FWD-IZS cams installed with a 7608 NVR. They are connected directly to the back of it. I enabled the Virtual Host feature in the NVR and logged in to each camera and can confirm they all run the same firmware version. In the Smart Event section on the NVR...

Hi All, New to the forums and this is my first post :) I just recently had some Hikvision camera's installed and have a question about how the Motion Events work. I know there are Basic Events and Smart Events and have configured Basic Motion Detection. Do I need to keep Basic Motion Detection...
