4K/8MP 1/1.2” CMOS sensor N85EFN2 compatible with Synology Surveillance Station?

I got my N85EFN2 from Andy/EmpireTech and after getting it "configured" with the software I found on Dahua USA's website, I tried connecting it to my Synology Diskstation running Surveillance Station. If I didn't know better, I would think it wasn't turned on but, the Dahua config tool sees it so, my POE+ switch (Netgear 305EPP) must be powering it properly, and my laptop worked for the initialization and configuration so it is apparently 'visible' on my network.

I'm wondering if I missed something in the instructions which were pretty sparse and perhaps I missed a feature to turn it on because Surveillance Station and my laptop don't see it all outside of the "Config Tool". The lights on my switch indicate a good connection as well so, I'm a bit perplexed at the moment. I don't have the audio RCA plugs or alarm ~22ga wires connected so, is that part of the problem?

Thanks,
Sid

I have a Synology NAS, and things became infinitely easier after I downloaded the Client app. Not the one on the NAS, but the one that you download and install on your laptop, or PC.

Also, on this screen, can you try port "80", if you haven't already?


Thanks, I'll check back in later to see how you're making out. I have the same camera in 2.8 and like I said I have a Synology NAS. You'll get this easily, and you'll love the camera you chose once a few settings are ironed out.
