Perfect, that's more than I found!

ok that's great thanks, just can't find the full specs for my DVR.

Hi Dan, Thanks for that. The turret and dome are POC , will they also be ok with my existing DVR?

Hi All, I'm looking to upgrade some of my old CCTV camera's connected to a HikVision DVR ( DS7208 HQHI -F1/N ). This DVR was installed in 2018 so obviously at least 5 year old tech but is it still compatible with any of the HikVision colorvu range. Money is tight at the moment so I'm trying to...

Hi, I recently needed to capture some footage from 3 of my IP Camera's. I used the Hik Connect app on my android phone to do this ( selected playback and then used the record button ). When viewing the captured footage in the stored location the first 2 camera's were fine but the third plays...

Ok, powerline arrived and injector ordered. As i will be connecting the IP camera to the Injector / LAN and not directly to the DVR will i have to use the SADP Tool to discover and adjust the network settings of the camera if it's not discovered it automatically.........reason i ask is I'm...

Thanks again, got a day off work so just about to order the TP Link Powerline so fingers crossed its the same circuit. I suspect that it won't be as simple as plugging the IP Camera directly into the PowerLine as a switch will be required as i believe cymruchris pointed out above if i...

Hey Guys, thanks for your replies. I'm going to try the powerline option first simply because the wireless bridge option seems a touch more complicated. The TP Link Kit looks a good option, are these just wired network links or do they also give WiFi, i've checked the specs and there's no...

Hi, I recently installed a Hikvision DVR for a family member , all's working well with the kit and i've now been asked if i can add another camera to the summerhouse. Problem i have is that the summerhouse is situated at the bottom of the garden ( around 30m from the house where the DVR to be...

Hi Dan, NVR is DS-7698NI-I2/8P (B) running Firmware Version V4.61.020, the camera's are running Firmware Version V.5.7.3. 220216. The settings are set to Video and Audio on the camera's i want audio from. A reboot resolves the issue but after a few hours the message comes back.

Hi guys, A couple of weeks ago I completed an installation of the above NVR with the 8MP IP POE AcuSense ColorVu Camera's ( DS-2CD2387G2-LU ) , all was well until earlier today when this message popped up ............."operation failed the audio channel is occupied". I've done a quick search...

Yes 10m HDMI cable.

Cheers guys, i'll give it a go. Always good to have a spare wireless mouse around the house anyway if it doesn't work.

Hi, I've just installed the above NVR and with help from the forum i now have it working perfectly. I have one final question to which i can't seem to locate an answer to on here even though I'm sure there is somewhere..... Can i connect a bluetooth mouse to the NVR due to it being located in a...

That's great Dan thanks, what mic would you recommend for this?

Hi Dan, thanks for the quick response. This was my concern, so what you're saying is that it's not just a matter of connecting some sort of audio cable from back of camera to NVR to sort this. Do i need to purchase a dedicated mic and connect it to the camera input? Also, If so, will the audio...

Thanks guys, brilliant information. Managed to get it all installed, set up and working fine. There's just one thing that I'm struggling with now, I've set up audio on all the HikVision ColorVu POE IP camera's ( enabled everything etc... ) and they're all working great apart from one , this...

Thanks for your replies guys Dan....................... Do I have to update the NVR in order one at a time or can i just update to the latest version? Is using a flashdrive/ USB Drive the best way to do this? The bitrate now seems to be fluctuating within acceptable levels using H.265+ at...

Thanks Dan, Yes its strange as I'm changing the resolution in the NVR - System - General - HDMI Resolution and then selecting the 4k option in the drop down menu. I tried both the 4k options ( 30HZ and 60HZ ) and the 2k option, i've even attempted to lower the res to 720 but whichever i select...
