if the camera actually has the SSH server running, but 'filtered' the Batch Configuration Tool will have an enable checkbox, much easier to use than the Hik SDK : Download | Tools - HikvisionI have tried to do this using EN-HCNetSDK(Windows32)V5.3.2.15_build20171122 but without a success.
I'd check the language byte in mtdblock6, ensure it's set to 01Camera shows up in SADP, and accepts new network parameters. When I try to log in, though, I get
Access Error: 404 -- Not Found
firmware language mismatch: /home/webLib
Patch davinci.Is there any way to check web UI logs or start it manually if it is not running?
It looks strange but there is no /dav/davinci file in the camera fs. Does it mean the firmware updating somehow failed?Patch davinci.

I have completed brickfix steps and tried to upload 5.4.5_170123_eu.
This implies that the process was not actually completed - there is no telnet available in that version.Unfortunately the web UI is not accessible but telnet works only.
I noticed that a bunch of it was different from my other camera of the same model. I was thinking about using the earlier mod, and decided against it.I'd check the language byte in mtdblock6, ensure it's set to 01
The mtdblock6 contents are unique to each camera, even of the same model.I noticed that a bunch of it was different from my other camera of the same model.
If you mean the one you used for the other camera - that would give a duplicate MAC address, leading to network problems if used on the same LAN.I was thinking about using the earlier mod, and decided against it.
That's the essence of the 'enhanced mtd hack' to convert from a CN camera to one that works as EN/ML. It's the value in byte 0x10 - 01 for EN, 02 for CN.Which is the language byte?
Is this also a DS-2CD2032F ?I can see it with SADP tool and Batch Configuration tool - I have reset it and it shows an ip of 192.168.1.64.
I have then tried the same process as with the other cameras - but I can't get past go, as tftpserv does not see it / connect to it.
That might be significant - there were some posts a while back where POE timing somehow got in the way of the probes for the Hikvision tftp server, but it worked OK on 12v power.Not sure if this is relevant or just another oddity - the camera does not seem to work with direct power - it will only work via a POE connection.
If it's running 'hacked to English' firmware, you'll need to use the brickfix2EN.dav firmware.I have tried to upgrade it to the brickfix2CN.dav firmware using the batch config tool - but the upgrade fails.
That can be a symptom of the webcomponents plugin not being loaded. Are you using IE11, not Edge?I can access the web gui - but I cannot browse to the location of the new .dav file (the browse button at the Upgrade section has no impact).
That can also be a troublesome method for the Hikvision tftp updater - again, timing linked to the camera stopping and starting the ethernet interface, and the PC catching up with the changing link status.Also - it does not seem to function over a direct switch connection to my PC (as all the other cameras did) - it will only work when connected in directly to my router.
It's the value in byte 0x10 - 01 for EN, 02 for CN.
If it's still at a CN value, the newest firmware will give a 'language mismatch' error, or brick the camera.
