Hi, we have the 7608NXI-K1/8P hard drive at work and noticed the Arm/Disarm options on the app. I was just wondering, is there any way to have a schedule setup so that if we forget to arm the CCTV after a certain time, then it will arm itself automatically? We will be disarming it during the...

Ah wouldn’t the SD card and the NVR both be recording at the same time? Because even if the NVR gets stolen, then the SD card will have recorded the thieves breaking in before it was powered off right?

Thank you! We'll see if anybody is able to confirm this and if not, I would be very grateful if you could do this as the backup is quite important. I have heard quite a few stories locally where the hard drives have been stolen so the SD option sounds ideal since cloud is unavailable.

Thanks, I just tried the part about my 1st question and it worked As for my 2nd question, if I had an SD card in the camera then is there any way we could make the footage get saved to the NVR and the SD card? That way, even if the NVR gets stolen then the camera would still have the SD card...

I am interested in purchasing the 8mp color Vu for a warehouse and I was wondering if the below were possible? 1) On Hik-Connect, is it possible to give access to somebody for only some cameras? These warehouses have been targeted in the past at night (usually when we will be asleep) so we...

Thank you! The broadband which I was looking at had a higher upload speed than that so it should be fine. I guess static IP's is only mostly required for the web CCTV's which are plugged in to the socket and run from wifi.

Hi I'm hoping to get the Hikvision ColorVu 4mp NVR set with 5x cameras at a new address, I remember that some CCTV systems require static IP's so I was wondering if this is a requirement for Hikvision too? Also, what would be the ideal internet speed for remote viewing on the Hik-Connect...

Can I ask which app you are using? I've got the Hik-Connect app on my iphone but it doesn't look like this, and it doesn't have these 'arm' or disarm options. I have the 7604-NXI-K1 with the DS-CD2387G2-LSU

Thank you for coming back to me on this. I am using iOS so it may be that! I will also have a look at the last point about making sure the speaker opening isn't obscured!

I have the DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL running off the 7604NXi-K1 However, when we try to use the 2 way audio from the Hik-Connect app to speak with delivery drivers, the audio coming out of the cameras is not clear at all and they struggle to understand us. We can hear the delivery drivers speaking...

I updated back to V4.74.015 last week but I'm still getting that half green screen when I'm trying to view it on my phone sometimes, is there anything I would be able to do about this? I never used to get this before until I'd rolled back a few versions last week.

I guess I got excited a little too soon, I didn't do the upgrade then as the 'notify to surveillance centre' got ticked again when it reached 12am. It also ticked it back on to the cameras direct login. I tried to change it and use the NVR as the 'VCA Mode' but it ticks surveillance centre...

Thank you for your fast response, I appreciate the assistance. I will update to the latest firmware, I'm currently on 4.74.000 so am I OK to just upgrade on to the latest firmware directly from that or should I do it in stages?

Ah so it turned out that the camera's direct login setting had the 'notify surveillance centre' ticked, I will see how it goes. In my NVR I have the option for VCA mode to be set by the camera or the NVR. Is it best if I choose NVR? As I guess choosing camera for the VCA mode doesn't help if you...

When did it start happening to you Edd?
