  1. hi guys im looking for a little guidance on a issue we are having with our hikvision nvr.

    we have a DS-7732NI-E4/16P which we have been running for some time with a load of DS-2CD2142FWD-I dome cameras with no issue.

    however i recently bought a DS-2CD2346G2-IU to add to the system and i'm struggling to get the NVR to show the camera.

    i plugged the camera directly into one of the empty ports on the NVR and it shows initially but then after trying to add camera it disappears. so i tried adding the camera to the network instead and initialising through IVMS which works and the camera shows and can be viewed in IVMS you can then pick the camera up as a network camera in the NVR and add the camera but it shows the little warning triangle in the status column and says unknown error on that camera and cant be viewed. 

    can anyone shed some light on this? hopefully i'm just missing something stupid.

    thanks

  2. hi guys

     

    hopefully someone can shed some light on my little issue, at the moment we are running a 32channel hik nvr but we have a couple of screens elsewhere in the building that we would like to display one specific camera from the system on each! question is:

     

    if I buy another two small hik nvrs with no storage will I be able to connect these to the network and select the cameras we want to view on each screen without affecting the system or original nvr in any way?

     

    thanks

  3. if i plug the network switch into one of the poe ports then go into camera management, the nvr seems to recognise this and switches off the poe on that port, if i then connect one camera to the switch i can find that camera through the switch either on plug and play or manual add on that ports designated channel on the nvr.

     

    however when i connect more cameras to the switch i can only find them on manual if i select one of the other 16 poe port spaces they do not come up when manual adding to one of the other spare non poe port channels (ie 17-32).

     

    it also seems that if any part of the system is powered down nvr,switch or camera then the cameras attached to the switch loose their setting and no longer show as being connected to the nvr.

     

    thanks nick


  4. hopefully someone can give me a little guidance with some issues I'm having with a hikvision nvr (ds-7732ni-e4/16p) and the hik connect app.

     

    I've done a fair bit of reading up and just can't seem to work out what I'm missing.

     

    the app works fine when on wifi to the network that the nvr is connected to but will not connect when on any other wifi or mobile network.

    i have been into the router (bt homehub 5) and set up port forwarding but still cannot seem to get the app to connect, is there anything I'm missing?

     

    I've attached some screenshots for info.
