Hello
I have not updated my NVR5216-16P-4KS2 to the latest firmware as I wanted to use 3rd party cameras.
My parent's Hik DS-2CD2532F is playing up with 12V power supply, but works ok with PoE.
I wanted to try to connect to it using Dahua NVR, but having no luck.
Camera is powered by the NVR's PoE and gets an IP assigned. I can get to it from the PC browser if its plugged in to the same PoE switch network (on NVR). But when I try to add the camera in NVR it just would not connect...
Any tips/ideas on what may be wrong? Would have thought its pretty standard protocol

fixed it - was an old firmware on the CN version camera. Updated to the latest - unbricking script rulez! Now Dahua NVR can see my hik camera
