Hi there is no code generator for this unit you should be getting a password reminder to your password and if you have had it working before you can also reset via the app if you can’t do any of the above then then also after entering wrong password a few times you will see a retrieve password you need to scan and copy the QR code that comes on screen then send that to who supplied you the unit …. They will get back with code that unit is sold under a few names falcon viper but infact it is a TVT nvr and they are one of the best on market today

Hi. This is a bit understood with a few FW with dahua and the problem is not with the recorder it’s the cameras with standard cameras IR is switched on and off via sensor in the camera so dvr does not have control of this feature. If you have cameras that allow this control then you would have access via dvr menu do you have control of your cameras menu via the ptz settings on the dvr

Hi. Not a problem ….. we all learn everyday hold you to the beer I have a few customers there …… church wine bar and a few petrol stations

More junk ……. A camera run on China server

Hi back to my first post ….. don’t waste money 12 year old recorder and cameras … you are just wasting your time here is a test for your cameras because it sounds like you bought them secondhand do you know the password for your cameras ? Nvrs and cameras are cheap …… spend your money on new

No it’s because you have wired your rj45 wrong I would also say get a new tester ….. because 12345678 will show two faults how many testers did you use

It matters a lot to the point your system will not work if you use a rj45 tester with your 12345678 it will say fault….. there is no way around that I have been doing this for 36 years I know I am right Is standard all over the world now yes you might have 1 or two cameras working ….. they might of already been in your local IP range …… your other cameras not working might also have local ip range but are the same ip as the other camera so won’t work as now you have a conflict wiring your rj45 in the right way will allow your recorder or router to assigne your cameras a new local IP address see my first reply to your post …. I knew from your first post what your problem is 90% of diyers wire rj45 wrong

Hi. Until you wire your rj45 correctly then your not going to fix your problem your camera will not communicate and will not have a IP address assigned all network cables need to be wired correctly

Hi. Yes this is a big issue your cameras will not work …. They can’t communicate with the network T-568B is how you must wire your rj45s

Hi. Like a lot of people ….. firmware is not the recorders software firmware is updates or fixes from manufacturers…… so using hikvision firmware will not work … infact it will make your recorder useless……. You would need the hik SOFTWARE from 2012 …. which you won’t find as it was removed from any downloads for having spyware

Hi what I mean about wasting money is your recorder is 10 years old …. Has no support your cameras are old hikvision 1.3 mp and again no updates so you don’t have a match no point buying a nvr to go with cameras and no point buying cameras to match your old recorder

Hi. The answer is no Yes 2013 your lorex was hik but First your unit is too old to do anything with and your hik cameras are the same too old and no updates…… spending money on a 1.3mp system is just a waste

Hi you need to let us know how your going to run the monitors

Hi. Which colour code did you use on your rj45

Hi. You just don’t use your account

Hi is hikvision your only choice

Hi. Very good cameras still have a few running but unfortunately both cameras are around 10 years old the last cameras Sanyo produced before they closed (sold) there security division they made some good cameras …. They would have been a top supplier today if they kept going the bad news for you is no updates last was 8 years ago and it was on Panasonic’s website

Hi. Nvrs do get hot ….. but turning vertically won’t make any difference I would lift nvr up off your network cabinet as the heat from that is rising up to your nvr which is not helping

Swann have not made systems for years they just rebrand ….. most are hikvision or ezviz (which is hikvision) and some dahua as of July this year Swann may no longer be using hik it has been known for years hik collect information from there system in commercial and domestic systems without customers permission 2021 hikvision ban …. Search it also Matt Hancock hikvision camera

Hi. Most of Swann is from the hikvision range or dahua while the uk waits to see the ban on hikvision and dahua…. No one is spending on those makes … infact some uk suppliers are offering 70% off we have used tvt the last few years reliable takes most cameras upto 4K and has the best remote app ….. control full system from phone £600 is a good budget…. I would mix camera resolution good thing with IP is you don’t need to run cables all the time …… if you have power in one of your sheds at bottom of garden …. You can send the data from shed to recorder down the existing power line

Hi. Don’t buy Swann there just rebadged also 4K is not what you would expect I have to schedule some customs nvrs to change resolution to 6mp at night as the image is better

Hi. Just had a manual sent by Swann you are right ….. no camera control which is pointless and it’s down to your recorder there are 3 types of 4780 you have the lite version….. your cameras are ahd 3mp with onboard control but your recorder does not have command over coax so many camera settings you can’t use

Ok your camera shows 3mp can you go into ptz settings for that camera ?

Hi did you replace the camera because that camera shows a stuck filter

Hi. Just use a static IP address and then use the app for that unit which is eagle eye
