This morning i wanted to view some recordings from one of my Hik 2055 cameras. The video was ok, apart from the time stamp. It kept looping @ 7.46:10am back to 7.46:00am and repeats. But the video itself was not looping, just the time stamp. Watching the live view, the time is working as it...

I now have 12 cameras around my home. 11 of these cameras all record 24/7 and any areas outside my property are privacy mask so no images of these areas are recorded. Now i have fitted a new camera to the front of my property. It's a VF camera and is bigger than the rest. This camera is pointed...

Is there any compromise in a varifocal 2.8-12mm lens as to a fixed lens camera. Is the image still as sharp on a VF camera, and do they stay in focus. Will a VF do as good a job as a 12mm fixed lens camera.

So i have got myself a Hikvision 7616NI-I2/16P NVR to replace my Hiwatch 216M-A/8P. I have 11 cameras on my system. 5 Hikvision 2055 and 6 Hilook D140. 9 of my cameras connect to the NVR via PoE port and all are working as they should. But i have one 2055 and one D140 using the same cable via a...

I am sorry for having to ask as i know there are loads of threads on the forum already about the firmware for the 7616NI-I2/16P, But every link i have tried has been dead. Admin, would you have a firmware link for me please for the 7616NI-I2/16P. Also do i need to add every update or just the...

I have watched a couple of video's about how to connect a siren to the NVR. What i would like to know, when using line crossing to trigger the alarm, can it be set to just beep once or twice. So it just lets me know someone is on my driveway or coming to the door.

I have read that you can fit 2 HDD's to one Sata using a splitter cable in a PC. But can this be done with a Hikvision NVR to add extra storage ? or can a USB HDD be use in the same way the sata hdd are ? Or is there a way i can add another storage to my home network ? What i am trying to do is...

I have 8 of these zxtech 1080p ONVIF COMPATIBLE cameras. I would like to use 4 of them inside my workshop and garages. Is there anyway i can connect them to the POE ports of my NVR, as when i had them connected to a TP-Link Splitter they were a pain as they kept dropping off the system and i had...

I was up at my local Robert Price builders today and saw that there Hikvision CCTV was switching between cameras every 10 seconds. I asked how they did this and was told it was set up like it when the system was fitted. So can i ask if there is a "HOW TO" on how to set up the NVR to switch...

There are 2 NVR's that i'm thinking of getting to replace my Hiwatch NVR-216M-A/8P (it's about 3 years old). One is the HiLook NVR-216MH-C/16P and the other is the Hikvision DS-7616NI-K2/16P The Hikvision NVR is about £100 more than the HiLook NVR. The only things i can see improving over what i...
