    Second Dead Hard Disk in BI system

    Absolutely wasting your time using USB / eSata to transfer security video 24.7.365! :facepalm: In 2024 the only method to connect and transfer data is via Ethernet, SFP. :thumb: As it relates to the failed drive I would echo the other members thoughts about checking if the HDD is still under...

    NSA Director Keynoting Dahua and Hikvision Sponsored Cybersecurity Conference

    Sadly, this is so true of almost any government today. :( Canada for example has been on a steady death spiral of corruption, insane weak laws, pathetic military, and weak borders. :angry: As it relates to Hikvision / Dahua everyone in this thread already knows about best practices with...

    POE switches (outdoor) to reduce cable runs

    The operating range is much better vs the other one used before. I would however like to make a few suggestions to help extend the operational service life of the unit. Purchase an external heat sink that is almost the same size as the outer case and insure the proper heat transfer medium is...

    Just to quickly close off this topic I have to report this firmware on this specific camera isn't quite right. The custom colour is seen on the OSD which is the main driver for me. Oddly, when the system fires off an email the OSD is still in Black & White?!?! :facepalm: At the end of the...

    Issues with older type IP cam

    I was so excited until the 403 forbidden banner came up to download the firmware. If time permits can you upload or provide a share link to the needed firmware. NOTE: To the OP my apologies for taking your thread off the rails and not on topic! :(

    Issues with older type IP cam

    For the benefit of others who may run into the same problem this is what version firmware I'm having a problem with: As seen here there is no custom option when you select the font color besides what's listed as Black & White Self Adaptive.

    Yeah where there’s a custom option as normal that isn’t there. :( The camera is a DS-2CD2147G2H-LISU 4 mm / with whatever firmware is listed on their website now.

    Issues with older type IP cam

    That would be greatly appreciated if it could be changed from the black / white. I use yellow in all the cameras except for two.

    Issues with older type IP cam

    Sell them or give them away . . . In 2024 there’s no reason to keep using 1990 technology that is also quite ugly! :facepalm: As of this writing relating to Hikvision is to purchase their 4 MP 1/1.8” hybrid ColourVu IP cameras. Offers the best of both worlds of IR, Light, and Smart IR / Light...
