Have just gone ahead and updated. Thank you for confirming beforehand, Phil :).

I will be updating a Hikvision DS-7616NXI-I2/16P/4S NVR, currently running V4.1.16 build 190621 firmware; and DS-2CD2386G2-IU cameras, currently running V4.1.16 build 190621 firmware. Will the firmware update wipe all NVR and camera settings (i.e. intrusion zones, lines, etc.)? If so, can these...

Oh believe me, I am most definitely testing the system and using people as well as animals to draw the boxes. Which has led me here to ask why animals are still triggering events. Your min box is obviously far taller than it is wide, so if an animal were to walk across that image left-right...

So the object needs to be wider AND taller than the minimum box size? If one of these dimensions isn't greater, the event will never trigger?

Why would increasing the threshold help? If a cat remains in the area for more than a second, it will still trigger, no? Just so I am clear, in regards to the minimum size box, is the size calculated by the total box area (and not the minimum width or height of the box)? e.g. If an object is...

I am trying to fine tune my setup and the one aspect I am struggling with is the amount of event triggers I am seeing from cats entering an intrusion zone. I have made sure to set the minimum detection size to larger than a small animal (and the maximum size to larger than a person), but...

Thanks for the reply Phil. I ended up finding the perfect solution. A Dakota Alert UTRE-4K Plus (delivered by UPS direct from Amazon US in 48 hours!)! Here is a demo video of the unit. Both the transmitter and receiver are very well built and compact units and allow for a good amount of...

I have a Hikvision DS-7616NI-I2 NVR which I would like to notify me of any events (e.g. intrusions/line crossings) via an external chime. I'd want this to be particularly loud as I find the NVR's internal chime isn't sufficient. What is the neatest/simplest way to set this up? Is there an...
