hi there i have the above dvr and some 720 cameras, i recently picked up a ptz camera made by ony-x mini bullet ptz camera, now ive tried to make it work BUT i cant, the camera lights up and does a move round but i cant get it onto my sytem to view it, any help would be great please.thanks

Morning all, I have got the ptz connected and it does it’s first check when I connect it but I have no video or control over it from the dvr, the infra red lights are on. I am just using the power supply that runs the other cameras(tried it on its own and also with the other 3 plugged in just Incase there wasn’t enough power?) when I go to the app on my phone I can move the camera but still no video

evening all, i have the qvis dvr and cameras using the bnc cables, im wondering if there are any cameras with audio i can buy and use please? thanks chris

The cable I got with it has rs485 connection and I have the adapter for the dvr side. which would you say is best option Tom? thanks

Morning all, i have just installed my new dvr and im struggling with a couple of bits so im here asking for help. i had the email setup so it sent me an alarm if the motion detected anything this just send an email telling me which camera but i was wondering if theres a way to send a snapshot? im using explorer app and that gives me the option but it doesnt do what it says on the tin!! now i noticed this morning that not 1 of the cats on the street have triggered it to send me an email so i went into the menu and now it tells me my email username is wrong( it was right last night when sending emails to me) im using a tiscali email address with port 587, itried to use my gmail address but it didnt work at all. i have virgin internet at home. any ideas please????

still no joy if anyone can help?

well i give up now, ive followed everything and still get username error. enable is ticked changed passwords got correct smtp correct port rebooted router and dvr no option to tick pictures

still struggling with this, i have now tried gmail,tiscali,virgin email accounts, even tried setting the dns after speaking to @tom. every one of them tells me wrong username. will i be best doing a factory reset on the box and starting again? thanks in advance chris

Hi there I changed my password before and have logged in a few times since but now it’s telling me wrong password I have unplugged and removed battery. The date on screen is 1970-01-01 could anyone help with a password please? Thanks Chris

Sorry Tom, forgot to put budget. I know it’s not a lot but I’ve got £200 set aside for the dvr, I’m in the uk

At the moment I have mvpower th-7108he and it’s not great, eseenet always fails etc etc etc so I’m looking for a new dvr. What would you recommend? I would like to keep my bnc cameras, I know they not great but it’s just for home and they give me enough coverage for what I need. Thanks Chris

It’s for home use.

evening all, at the moment i have a standalone dvr that has now quit, this has 8 cameras that use the bnc connectors, is it possible to get these to run from my pc please? or is it easier for me to replace the dvr? many thanks chris

thanks for that, now i guess i need to find a suitable dvr, at minute i just have a 8ch and im looking to keep all the cameras, are the hikvision items good? ideally i want to be able to view on my phone and also laptop whilst at work away from the house. thanks chris

hi there had this dvr for a few years now and for some reason the password i had set on it wont let me login now(even though it works if i go onto a browser) ive pulled the power lead,internal battery and hdd and left off for a while. does anyone know of a factory reset etc for these box's please? thanks chris
