    Dahua IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS - Buy Log / Review

    I've had one go down, and wouldn't adopt an ip address at all. Could no longer find it. Contacted seller and he said the camera couldn't be reset unless u could access it from Web page. And seeing as no ip address, I had to send it back to him for factory repair. What firmware did u use? Just...

    Lost capability by using POE?

    Ah... No. It's actually a motorised zoom on my camera lens. Not digital. The lens is adjusted by the motor. Then there is digital zoom on top of that. The camera the OP is talking about has versions listed on aliexpress which has this motorised zoom also. Sent from my HTC 2PS6200 using Tapatalk

    Lost capability by using POE?

    There are quite a few of these listed with a motorised lens. I have the ipc-hdbw4431r-zs which is a Chinese camera with English language on it. The zoom feature can be used from the camera Web interface, the nvr interface(if using an nvr) or even from your Android mobile apps. I am having issues...

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    Hi guys Wondering if there was a way, for this nvr to stop adding cameras automatically when u plug them in. I have 8x IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS (Chinese with English language) and the nvr/ipc ip addressing is very strange. I started by setting static ips to all cameras. Things were working. A reboot of...

    What do you mean only Chinese? I've seen multiple articles on a Chinese version and an English version. There was a YouTube video showing the firmware upgrade process, and how logging into the camera there's a region setting. The guy had an English region camera and a Chinese region camera...

    Dahua IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS - Buy Log / Review

    Well I found a seller on Aliexpress who assures me this is the genuine dahua English version which can be easily updated with any future firmware releases from dahua websites. Purchased 8 of them for around the au$96 mark each. Most other sellers had them for about the au$75-85 mark. So I'm...

    I've read multiple times to avoid the chinese versions of this model as you are unable to update firmware (as well as other reasons). Does anyone know where to buy the non-chinese versions of these cameras. Aliexpress lists multiple items with English firmware, but when I ask the sellers if...
