Hi, just joined.
Lots of questions to pose in the right areas.

Firstly my system:
I have a basic Hikvision system with three cameras and NVR to monitor activity outside the house.
Hikvision IP Cameras: model DS-2CD2142FWD-IWS with firmware V5.5.0 build 170725 (one has V5.4.5 build 170124).
These are hardwired with CAT6 cable back to my NVR in the house.
Hikvision NVR: model DS-7608NI-K2/8P with firmware V3.4.107 build 190927. Ports provide PoE.

I am getting to grips with the overall system which is working OK but I still have lots of questions.
Before I got the NVR, I just used PoE blocks to run the cameras directly from my laptop. I used Internet Explorer to log in to the IP cameras and see all their settings.

Immediate question will be about IR illumination setting on cameras.

Thanks.
