Hi,
I have a Dahua IPC-HDW2231R-ZS camera and I am very happy with it so far. This forum has been of great help so far.
When I use it on its own, I can setup IVS Tripwire and it works OK.

I have also a Dahua NVR2104-P-4KS2 PoE recorder.
However, when I connect the camera to the NVR, It cannot use the IVS features of the camera. Is this expected? I really find it strange....

I have tried to have the IVS enabled in the camera while it is connected to the NVR but the NVR does not record the events.
However, I can see the Tripwire overlay in SmartPSS.

I have tried also to right click the camera in SmartPSS live view to see if there was an IVS menu (as shown in the wiki), but no luck. I can see a menu entry for Smart Track Config, which is weird since it is not supported by the camera....

Can it be a bug / incompatibility??? Do I need to do anything?

I think I have the latest versions:
SmartPSS 2.02.1R
Camera: 2.622.0000000.31.R. 2018-08-13
NVR 3.216.0000000.0 Build Date: 2018-07-05

Thanks in advance!!!

Jaime

It seems I should have ordered the NVR4104-P-4KS2 which is just 40€ more....
