PIR wiring

@David87965

I have not read all of this yet.
If it's a DS-7608NI-K2 NVR there is 4 alarms in and one out.
Start by viewing this link for a DS-9616 NVR


Are you using the new GUI 4.0 as I have a DS-7608NI-12 NVR

Check options on on screen display not just the web interface. Sometimes settings are found one place and not the other.

Have not tested this but for DS-7608NI-12 NVR with 4.0 GU I think the settings are.
1- Storage/ Recording schedule /select alarm type.
2- System /Event/Normal Event/Alarm input/local*
Select NO or NC then set Linkage Action.

Good luck with the wiring.

No offense but if its not for 7608-NIK2 then i wont even bother trying.

None taken.
Both NVR did have the same firmware.

However I now have Vr 4.0 GUI.
Just follow the steps as detailed in last post for your NVR. They will be in similar positions depending on your firmware.
Good luck.

This link and others on the same web page

• User Manual of DS-7608/7616NI-K2/8P(16P)

Has all the details you need including a wiring diagram,start with chapter 5 and 8.

Open up your NVR and make sure the cable circled in red is present and connected.

I read these replies but on mobile so i keep it short. Ill read that manual and open the box etc but give me a day for update.

Hi David. I understand why you are piss off after two pages of posts.
No need read that manual, just set up your NVR as per the attached files,I have tested this for you. Yes it works.
The screen images are from logging in to the the NVR with IE,your NVR should show the same layout this way.
You will note that I set the alarm contact NC.This way when there is a link between alarm 1 and G there is no recording.
Open that link and the NVR will start recording and only stop when that link is reconnected.

This is very important, when you connect it to the PIR there must be no voltage on that relay contact.If there is you will damage the NVR.

I attached picture of my NVR.

I measured voltage when the PIR relay triggers on the output and its max voltage was 65mV, is this safe for the NVR inputs? I will try your guide now.

I unable to answer that. If the PIR has a relay with contacts there should be zero voltage.

Edit First get the alarm input working with a wire link.

Edit 2 Your NVR needs to reboot after setting the alarms.

Just opened your picture. If it's not plug in correctly then that's the problem.

Hmmmm.... ill wait a bit and see if the other guy answers about the plug.

If you still unable to set it up ,there's one more setting on mine which can only be access via the NVR.This is to change the alarm input from nonuse to input.This change will reboot the NVR.

 

[David87965]

im just trying to avoid reboot until the plug is confirmed as OK because when i reboot i have to re-toggle 2 switches in each camera to get my tuned settings for some reason. That means using virtual host and logging etc which is annoying since i do it all week trying to get this alarm panel working

View attachment 24583 View attachment 24583 To help you will remove mine from the rack and remove cover and post a picture for you.

There should be no spare pins.De power the unit before removing the plug.

Top marks to Tangent for the correct answer.

As I said I'm not that familiar with Hikvision NVRs, but that connector doesn't look right to me.
Here's a still from a polish youtube video on a similar model that I found. You can see that the top of the connector isn't flush with the top of that circuit board like it is on yours.


Assuming it is connected wrong, a fairly safe assumption IMHO, it's possible that damage could have occurred to components on the main board or the io board. Hopefully that isn't the case, but it is possible.

ITS FIXED!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR HELPING ME FIX!!!!!! I SEE IT IN THE NVR NOW. HOLY CRAP MAN.

 

[David87965]

THANK YOU SO MUCH TANGENT AND DGWASW YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW FURIOUS I BEEN WITH THIS BOX.

ok caps off. but seriously.... thank you guys!!!! i cant express my happiness. speechless.

The Top marks go to Tangent for the correct answer way back at post 47.
