Just like the subject says has anyone tried the Empire security cameras out with the Eyesurv Ion NVR or Dahua NVR? I came across an empire security camera for cheap a while back and wanted to see if it would work with a ion nvr. I have a empire security hybrid nvr at home.

I use Dahua based stuff in all my installs...just wanted something cheap at home..

I would love to find the place that empire security cameras buy their cameras from just to see who it is.

I'm pretty sure that Empires "ES-NVR1U1080P-8" is the exact same thing as the EYEsurv ESDV-NVRION-8. Which leads me to believe that their cameras will not only work with the ION but I bet they will be fully compatible with motion detection, etc. I could be wrong but I bet I'm not. :)


From my experience so far, the Dahua cameras and EYEsurv ESDV-NVRION-8 have paired great together especially when it comes to ONVIF compatibility.

Yes they do. The hybrid does a good job actually but the customer service from the other guy is pretty poor. So I stick with nellys

Yeah to add a Hikvision camera to the Hybrid go to 'digital channels' and add it as an ONVIF camera and port 80 and put in the password.

I got it added Ryan but it only shows the extra stream and not the main stream.

Is your Hik cam set to 3MP? If so drop it down to 1080p. If that doesn't work, I don't know, call Empire. :)
