    Improving the Night Vision performance of my Hikvision cameras?

    Thank you for your valuable input Dan. I will pop out to give them a bit of a clean and will also adjust the angles slightly too. Thanks again.

    Improving the Night Vision performance of my Hikvision cameras?

    I think I've managed to insert a couple of images as requested. I need to pop out and give them a bit of a wipe over but that won't improve things much. I think that you can get the general gist of things.

    Improving the Night Vision performance of my Hikvision cameras?

    Thank you for coming in on this so quickly Dan. I wouldn't know where to start in order to grab an image from my CCTV monitor to add to a post. Would it be possible for me to do this via a browser connection on my pc?

    Improving the Night Vision performance of my Hikvision cameras?

    I have two cameras connected to my system, they are :- DS-2CD2155FWD and DS-2CD2035FWD The night vision is extremely poor and so I am wondering if there is anything that I can do to improve this. I'm not too sure how old these cameras are and whether or not they may be able to accept some...

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    Thank you again JB1970, yes you are quite correct, after doing the extraction/unzip the digicap.dav is inside it. Question is, do I need to do anything more so that the update finds the digicap.dav file or will it be OK that it will pick it up as the IPC_G1 it wil see?

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    One question please as I seem to be having problems with creating the digicap.dave file. Will highlighting the file and then right-clicking and choosing 'Extract-All' give the same end result as downloading an unzipping app, which I don't have at the moment. The Extract-All method worked for...

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    I do have a digicap.dav file that I used for updating the NVR. I didn't think that that was to be used for the camera upgrading aswell, particularly as Dan had pointed me to IPC_G1_EN_STD_5.6.820_220519 for the cameras.

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    Hello again Dan, I have followed the instructions on using the 'Virtual Host' method (I had already set this up previously) and I can log onto the camera's with no problems. However, when I come to 'Upgrade' and I browse to the file, when I click on it I cannot get it to populate the box on...

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    Right then folks. I have updated the firmware for the NVR and it has worked perfectly, the time is also now showing as correct. Unfortunately I seem to have forgotten how to update the firmware for my cameras. I have tried doing it the same way (On-Line) as I did for the NVR but that does not...

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    Hello Dan, Thank you so much for your help with this. It is very much appreciated. I will have a look for the guide to doing the updates and hopefully try to get it done later today. @JB1970, thank you for your tip. I will look at that too as despite having configured DST it is still showing...

    DS-7604NI-K1 & 2xx5FWD Firmware Updates and Time Settings?

    Hi Folks, It has been quite some considerable time since I last updated the firmware/software on my set-up and so I am thinking that I should probably do it now. I have a DS-7604NI-K1 Unit which is currently showing the firmware as being v4.30.085 build 210409 There are two cameras attached...

    Problems with time settings on my Hikvision NVR?

    I have just read something about an NTP Server that appears to ensure the accuracy of the time and date. Is this something that I need to take a look at and what exactly is it? Thanks again for all your efforts on this.

    Problems with time settings on my Hikvision NVR?

    I have just clicked on an icon in the top right hand corner of my NVR screen and when I put the mouse pointer over it brings up the words Hik-Connect and then a click on it displays one of those Q codes ( I think that's what they're called), I think that you need to point your phone at it to...

    Problems with time settings on my Hikvision NVR?

    I can't see any reference to Hik-Connect on my NVR. I have trawled through all of the settings too.

    Problems with time settings on my Hikvision NVR?

    NVR is a DS-7604NI-K1/4P(B). I have looked at the Hik-Connect app on my phone and that is working fine and is showing the correct time. I have gone through all of the settings menu and cannot find anything to do with the time sync and so if it is on, I can't disable it.

    Problems with time settings on my Hikvision NVR?

    I have just backtracked to the 'edit' box but definitely no such option appears. I've just gone back into Live View on my monitor and the damn thing has gone back to an hour behind again. The Live View on the browser is still showing the correct time.

    WOW! That is some reply JB1970, thank you so much for the time and effort that you must have put into my query. I will work through this methodically and report back. Thank you again. Much appreciated. EDIT: Right then. I have just worked through your instructions using my monitor which is...

    Problems with time settings on my Hikvision NVR?

    I am still having this problem with the time and just cannot seem to overcome it. I have tried activating the 'Virtual Host' option but when I click on one of the IP addresses in the 'join' column it asks me to log in again. I have tried all of the passwords that I have used with my CCTV...
