Hi, I'm searching for some legacy firmware for a Hik iDS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZHSY with out much luck for a cam on v5.7.80 and i'm trying to get to latest: (v5.8.60..) version. I read on the Hik pages you should ascend in steps to higher firmware and you can't jump up quickly, my version seems fairly close to the current but i'm still new to this.. I had no luck on the Eur or UK Hik site, the legacy page on the US site only had the current version from what i could see.

Can anyone steer me towards where i might find those firmwares or does anyone have the old files knocking around please?
 
Hi @SeanJ - you can find all of the previous H8 Platform firmware for the iDS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZHSY here.

There have been quite a few large updates between your current version and the latest, so I recommend updating in the steps marked below:

Then, you can update to the latest version, which can be found in the resources section on the camera's product page :)
 
I've had no luck despite repeatedly trying unfortunately. I tried the suggestion of no1 (V5.8.10_221025) which I can see is the next sequential number available above my existing firmware (V5.7.80 build 230712) but just get the 'The type of upgrade file mismatches' error each time. I did try other versions also but still the same message unfortunately.

I notice the list didn't have my exact current version number listed (V5.7.80 build 230712) but assume it doesn't carry some in between releases possibly?

Hi, yes i do follow the steps in the link above exactly as set out. I've been fine with my other (similar) cam in applying new firmware (though not as far back in date) but after a reset on this slightly older cam (same model) i've been struggling for a couple of months now.

. J'm trying to start the upgrade path upgrading to 5.8.10 over my existing V5.7.80 build 230712 which Kyle kindly pointed out would be the next logical upgrade am that looks correct in principle. I've placed the digicap.dav in my route folder out of it's zip but it still shows the mismatch error.

I've tested the troublesome cam overwriting it's (old) current firmware (not on the legacy list) so i know the process should be possible but i'm at a loss how to approach this now. There are 2 types of my cam in relation to zoom lenses (i own both) . The legacy download page is definitely the one for my cam i think I don't know what to try next really.
 
Could you please share a screenshot of the camera's 'Basic Information' page, with the serial number blurred out?
Just so I can check I've definitely sent you to the right firmware for that model.
You can blur out the serial number using this browser extension:

We've recently learnt about the handy free ZeroBlur extension that works on the Edge, Chrome and Firefox browsers. This allows you to blur out any part of a web page whilst viewing it, so should be useful when you need to share a screenshot from your device's web browser menu, but want to hide...
