crossover 0 Posted August 5, 2025 Hi All, Saw a DS-7108HWI-SH (8ch BNC) on ebay that was cheap and thought I would take it on. I have several BNC cameras lying around and if I put a camera in a vulnerable spot, it wouldn't hurt if it was damaged. Seller says the unit has been reset to factory default. I was wondering that, in your opinion, if I sent the XML key from SADP to Hikvision, would they bother to send me a reset code, seeing that the DVR is from 2012 or earlier? Thank You, Jay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
