Hey Everyone, especially @alastairstevenson .... I have managed to get 7 of the 8 cameras going! Before ordering the hardware above, I thought..... as a long shot, I will email Hikvision support, and see if they help me. My hopes were not high, given the other stories I had read online. It...

No idea, I applied 5 or 6 before I started checking with SADP. I dont mind, I have the time at nights, and have 8 cameras that need fixing.... my time is free, whereas the cameras will cost me $800+. I am learning a lot.... What have you got in mind?

I have tried a number of firmware versions, nothing yet. Interesting developments: The two red lights on the camera stay on permanently now, whereas previously they went on for about 20 secs. The camera is no longer coming up on SADP. I tested a non-flashed camera, and it comes up on SADP...

Nothing so far.... will keep trying tomorrow.

OK, will go back to the most likely candidate and reinstall, then test with SADP.

How long to wait for TFTP? I had this one going for 12 minutes....

Does this thread mean anything to you? https://www.use-ip.co.uk/forum/threads/going-insane-looking-for-ipc-t240h-firmware.7418/

Excellent! so go back to some of the links you provided earlier?

Wow! Feel like we are getting closer now! I keep getting a resend required message? Do you need the Wireshark zip as well?

There you go!

I keep getting this error message: What extension should it be?

Thanks, I am willing to put as much time as needed into this. I have downloaded Wireshark and run a capture. I can see references to Hikvision in the capture, such as: No. Time Source Destination Protocol Length Info 26 18.637065 192.168.254.6 224.0.0.251 MDNS...

Yep. The NVR appears to be working fine, as I factory re-set it, and then updated to the latest Firmware. I thought this was the best thing to do, being a second hand system.... apparently not!

I am running them directly from the NVR. How do I set the cameras back to default factory? I thought that is what the tftp software does?

I cant find any reference to a reset button in the manual? Can you point me to where it might be?
