Hi,
So I think this is a weird one, hopefully somebody may be able to shed some light as to what is going on.
I have the above NVR, 4 cameras of various guises configured and working via the ONVIF and Hikvision protocols. All fine.
I had two (oldish) Trendnet cameras lying around which were flashed using the Hikvision firmwares. The TVIP311PI & TVIP310PI
Both flashed without issues. Here is where it gets weird.
When connecting the 311 & 310 cams to my home network POE switch, I am able to access them using the SADP to configure IP and then subsequently access
them via IE and the web GUI. They give me Live view, I can ping the IP address... everything works.
When I connect the 310/311 to the NVR POE ports, the cameras show up as drawing POE power and connected, but configuring them is impossible via Hikvision or ONVIF.
Just doesn't work.
So I connected my PC up to the NVR port and configured the IP to allow me to see what is going on, on the CCTV camera side of things. I see all my other cameras, they
are accessible via ONVIF... i can ping the NVR GW itself as well as the individual cams - no problems.
THe 310/311 however are not there? Pings to the previously set IP result in 'unreachable' ?!??!?!?!
EVen running the SADP tool the 310/311 do not appear?! (the other cams do!).
I switch the cams back to my network POE and they appear on SADP??
So - in a nutshell - the 310/311 cams, when connected to Hikvision NVR go invisible (even to SADP), although they show up as connected and drawing power on POE status.
You switch them back to my general network POE switch, they appear and are accessible via IP, Web Gui and work as normal.
So essentially I just cannot get them to be seen on my NVR!? The fact that SADP isn't even seeing them?!?
What is going on, someone please help?!
thanking you
