Hi,
I need to update outdated firmware release of 2018 (although automatic check says it is the latest one) of my NVR5232-16P-4KS2E purchased in 2019 in CN. Lately I had some strange camera shut downs which I corrected (hopefully) by restarting and reseting to factory settings.
I also noticed that some functions dont really work as they should, so I think firmware is to be updated. I searched Dahua firmware site and found the latest release DH_NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.002.0000000.8.R.241030. But i am not 100% sure it is ok. I somehow dont want to brick it just yet :)

I kindly ask you to let me know if anybody of you have any experiences with this NVR and this firmware release and report to to me if any problems are to be expected.

Thanks,
Andrej

I would use empire tech for all your firmware updates. Enter your NVR model number under the NVR tab and it pulls it up. Looks like there’s a new one put out a few months ago!
 
CN as in China?

It may well have a hacked english language firmware on it.
Updating it to a newer firmware may result in it changing to chinese language.
CN=China.
You might be correct. Current firmware is Eng_PN_V3.216.****

Is there a way to move back to old firmware if CN language is to happen?
 
if you can read chinese why not just use the chinese firmware?

I don't even know that you could roll back to english firmware.
I'm sure it requires some vendor inside knowledge to be able to do so.
 
Change out the IP address for your NVR. That is for one of the many in my fleet, Running that on my last NVR returns..
serialNumber=AMR035xxxxxxxxxx06
deviceType=31
processor=ST7108
updateSerial=DHI-NVR4232-EI

Would be interested in what your info is returned as. I changed 10 of my SN to X's .. Might shed some light on your device running that in your Chrome Browser.. Again using your NVRs IP address in place of mine.
 
Well seems to be a Dahua model for sure. As you might have been able to tell from my SN and my Update serial mine isn't a Dahua direct but is a Dahua OEM and in my case it is an Amcrest so that is why my Serial number has AMR in the front for Amcrest Recorder.. Anyway yours might have come from ES country area. There is a 2024 FW for the NVR on the Dahua Website. NVR5216/5232-16P-4KS2E - Dahua Spain I also have that NVR but is from Amcrest as well. Mine hasn't had an update since 2022 it is EOL and no longer getting updates.. Hope this helps some.

From my DVR also from Amcrest I have many different recorders between 4 locations. These are just form the last 2 I bought from Amcrest.
processor=ST7108
serialNumber=AMR15xxxxxxxxxx5F4
updateSerial=DH-XVR5108HS-4KL-I3
