Works, thanks. I did make some additions: silent and max 1 second: url="http://${ip}/cgi-bin/ptz.cgi?action=start&channel=0&code=GotoPreset&arg1=0&arg2=${preset}&arg3=0" curl --digest -u "${user}:${pass}" -s -g -m 1 -- "${url}"

Well, you may not understood the why of the question, but you surely gave the answer with that example curl command. Whether from a very formal manual, or a practical example how-to, one needs to know the syntax. Much appreciated. So, is there a proper formal manual for this sort of stuff...

hmm.. I got it pre-owned. Local equivalent of craigslist. I guess lack of traceability will work against me. Any methods to determine if it is said "hacked-to-english" model?

Hello I would like to send some control parms to the Dahua SD59225UN-HNI and SD5A225XA-HNI Specifically, I would like to disable auto-tracking at 08h00 and re-enable at 18h00, or when user presses a button if they leave everything unattended for the day. And maybe also have some hardware...

I know right? Which is why I was not worried too much when I could by this "ntsc version" for a bargain. However, whether I can replace the firmware.... I do not want to end up with a brick. So to repeat the question, anyone know if this firmware also applies to the SD59225UN-HNI

Anyone know if this also works for SD59225UN-HNI instead of SD59225U-HNI I want to be careful, but this website also directs me to the same firmware even if I enter SD59225UN-HNI And this brochure shows the difference of the N is it is a NTCS instead of PAL. To be honest, I am in a PAL country...

That "abnormal" sounded familiar, but not for me: go to first page and search for post by user epcjay. If you have the same, you may have forgot to tell us you use the web-page for NVR control. I advise to do it directly with the PC client or the android client. I would not trust the...

I have the 19 from the Chinese website, but remember, it is not made English. If you do a full factory reset, your interface would go Chinese And why would you want 19 anyway, if you are OK with running the risk if reverting to chinese, you may as well go to 21?

It is working for me on a non-HikVision camera, using OnVif driver. (a XM camera)

Even on the official Chinese website there is no update since V3.0.21 build170417, so since over a year. Its been running fine for me, in English, but I surely make sure I am never going to do a full reset. I did grab that 18 though, just in case, thanks, because the current English fallback I...

Yeah that's normal. Both red and both black are connected together to the 12V barrel connector. The Black is also connecter to the base of both Ethernet status LED's. The small connector is supposed to be on the camera board and the big one goes on the InfraRed LED board as it uses more power...

Awesome! Now lets hope with such protocol information, companies like Hikvision see their wait to include the protocol.

don't use wifi, make sure you are on the same cabled network (no routing, level 2 switch only) (edit: Also, no VMware, Wine, BootCamp and such virtual stuff.)

With the ip and reset tool for this camera, you can do a factory reset. I suspect that would also reset the password.

Often that is also called POE, but official POE is 48v DC directly into the RJ45 pins, and it needs an extra piece of electronics inside the camera. I also have two of those. What is sometimes confusing is that even those real POE camera's also have a 12V DC jack next to the RJ45, so you could...
