    Ok, Joey,

    Are you stating I should switch out the firmware because you know it will resolve this issue I am having? And if so, where do I find the Hikvision firmwares to match up to my model of DVR?

     

    Thanks

     

    The cameras you listed do look like re-badged Hikvision models. http://www.hikvision.com/en/us/Products_show.asp?id=7662

     

    The DVR is a re-badged Hikvision model.

     

    So an option is make them all use the Hikvision firmware, their firmware is the most up to date versions available.

    I updated another badged company (Lorex) to Hikvision, works fine.

     

    By upgrading the Cameras firmware to Hikvision ones the Swann would detect them properly ?

    I've searched and I did not find a answer to my question

     

    I'm seing that a lot of post refers to swann rebranding HikVision, does anyone know how i would go as to apply an hikvision firmware to the nvr-7085 ? The camera selection is poor (well only one) and I think that if i were to install a hikvision formware instead i might be able to add better cameras, OR does anyone know of a dome camera from hikvision (or other) that would connect on this system ?

     

    Thanks for your help

    I have a Swann DVR8-7200 that came with 4 1080p IP cameras. I was told by the person at the store (Tiger Direct storefront) that the Swann 720p IP cameras would work with this DVR, so I purchased three. -Since the store was going out of business I got a great deal on all the hardware.

     

    None of the 720P cameras are working. The DVR is showing none are being detected. The cameras are glowing, and I've even used a short Ethernet cable into the DVR to ensure it wasn't the cabling. The 1080p cameras are working great.

     

    My question is, are these camera compatible, and if so, what do I need to do to get them to work with this DVR, or is this DVR configured by the factory to only work with the 1080p IP cameras like the 4 it came with?

     

    Thanks

     

    I too was misinformed by the vendor, I guess you got the last batch of NHD-806 cameras they had there, I have the nvr8-7085 and none of the onvif cameras are being detected, anyone here had a chance to actually change the firmware to hikvison for the swann NVR's ?
