Hello fellow security camera techies.
I own one Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P NVR which works great.
I purchased a 2nd Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P used.
However the 2nd one won't boot up. Upon plugging it in and flipping on the back switch, the front panel "power" LED blinks. Upon opening the...
Hello I purchased a new camera 8MP DS-2CD2386G2-ISU
I was wondering if its possible to keep the LED light on during the night instead of using IR.
I have a DS-2CD2347Gl-LU and the LED light stays on all night and turns off in the morning is there anyway to do this with my other camera...
Hey guys, I was wanted to pop in here and share my experience with some new led lights I just picked up off Amzn. I recently installed 2x 2mp Dahua Starlight cameras over my driveway to watch my cars. In the pitch black they didnt show a ton of detail even with the IR lights provided in the IP...

Hi,
Since the last update (4.2.60 x64) the IR button on the control panel only has on or off. Used to have an "AUTO" setting. I'd rather not leave the IR LEDs on all day if I don't have too.
Any ideas? (Other than restoring a mirror image from a week ago prior to the last update...)
Thanks!

Seems to be a lots of cheap and nasty looking ones on Ali, Ebay and Amazon it's...
I just bought one of these cameras and am having difficulty getting any usable image out of night mode with IR. In a dark room, the image is almost completely black and no real detail is visible unless it is almost within a foot of the camera lens. I’ve adjusted settings to match exactly those...
I've noticed there was a lot of people buying the CMVision illuminators so I purchase the IR3, a 3 LED illuminator on Amazon for $15,49. It's advertised to have a lighting angle of 60-80 degrees and 50-100' range.
So first to show you the problem I had and why I need an illuminator in the...
