I recetnly attempted to add a second Dahua camera and I'm botched it up big time. I opened the config tool, saw the new camera listed, selected it and clicked initilaize. After that it asked me to create a new password, I did that and now when logging into either camera I get the error message,

com.Error./AthorizeReloginTip

Anbody know how to fix this?
 
Did you change the ip address of the second camera? Does it conflict with the first camera? If so, disconnect the first camera and then see if you can log into the second one. If not, you may need to reset the camera using the reset switch.

I forgot to change the ip address initally and when attempting to change the address afterthe fact, it won't take. I might try the reset.
 
So basically you have two cameras on your network with the same IP address. Just unplug the second one and then change the IP of the first one.

I was able to change the IP of the second camera and can now logon to them seperatly but I was hoping to have one login for both but don't know how to set that up. Also, it appears the first cameras firware upgraded somehow.
 
I tried this but when choosing from the drop down menu under camera settings / Dahua, it doens't have IPC-HDW5231R-ZE as an option

Don't worry about it. Don't choose from the drop down. Just click on Test Connection and let it stay as generic.
