Hi

I now have 3 cameras that will not connect to the NVR indicated by (x) after I upgraded the firmware.

Use the custom downgrader is my signature, on the non working 5.30 cameras,
And re do the the time 5.20 with 5.20
If you want to upgrade to 5.30 on the 5.23 or below camera's
You have to do the mtd hack first if they are Chinese camera's

In future don't. Let it be a warning for others who decide to do this not to touch a working system for no reason.

Like whoslooking said, use his downgrader and get them back up and running first.

Great advice, thank you.

I have same problem. Will your downgraded work for my 5.3.0 camera too? It does not have "CH" in the serial.

Ok Who's, so I tried the downgrader. The TF server does nothing after it states File transfer completed. Further, the camera drops the .64 IP address and is no longer reachable unless I power cycle it. Any ideas?

Using hiktools change the firmware region from EN to CH

Then try again that should help, if your camera is CH region.

Thank you Who's. I actually fixed them by updating the FW to a new version released by Hikvision Europe. My cameras are European ones.

Thank you,
