Hikvision IPC Firmware 5.5.0 - released 24 Sept 2017
I sent my 2142 back to Hikvision after an upgrade to 5.5.0 would not allow it to connect to my router that had an ip reserved by MAC address. I was hoping they would roll me back to 5.4.5. They didn’t. They upgraded it to 5.5.5, which still cant pull and maintained a reserved IP address. I... -

Hikvision Model Number Help
Good morning all, I have a couple Hikvision 2CD2142FWD-IS cameras. I have been looking at the firmware download site (Firmware | Hikvision USA | The world’s largest video surveillance manufacturer) and I am very confused by something. My cameras all came with version 5.4.5 build 170124. On... -

Hikvision IPC Firmware 5.5.0 - released 24 Sept 2017
So, I am going through a third party vendor but they said they are shipping the camera back to Hikvision for repair or replacement. -

Hikvision IPC Firmware 5.5.0 - released 24 Sept 2017
Anyone having issues with the 2142 not being able to maintain an ip through DHCP reservation after an upgrade to 5.5.0.? My cameras are under warranty and I am debating returning them to Hik but looks like they are just going to replace with a camera with version 5.5.0 anyways? -

DS-2CD2142 Upgrade from V5.4.5 build 170124 to V5.5.0 build 170725 Fails
First, thank you for your response. Second, what is the difference between the UK/Ireland firmware and the US firmware? Also, how can I find out, other than flashing, if this will actually fix the issue? I am a little mind-blown that I can’t go back to an earlier version. Also, I am unable... -

DS-2CD2142 Upgrade from V5.4.5 build 170124 to V5.5.0 build 170725 Fails
Hello all, I swear I am a glutton for punishment. Just couldn't live any longer with V5.4.5 build 170124 on my Hikvision 2CD2142's. Even though they have been humming along without any issues for about a year. My OCD got the best of me and I decided to download V5.5.0 build 170725 and... -

E-mail with IP Adress Filters Enabled
Yes!!! That is exactly what I am looking for. I am using DD-WRT on my router. Do you know if there is something like this that can happen at the router level? -

E-mail with IP Adress Filters Enabled
By way of further explanation, if I could find an email server/forwarder (or any other service) with a known ip, I could add it to the ip filtering list on my hikvisions and the problem would be solved. Big problem with an email service like gmail or others is they use multiple IPs. I was able... -

E-mail with IP Adress Filters Enabled
It is on the camera. It limits the IP addresses that can access the camera. Unless they are in the list, they can't "see" the camera. -

E-mail with IP Adress Filters Enabled
Good morning everyone, Anyone have a work around for getting notifications from a couple hikvision cameras when it address filtering is enabled? Just want to receive some type of notification when a couple of the exception events happen like full hdd or a hdd error. As soon as I enabled it... -

Hikvision NVR watchdog or auto-restart function ??
I have noticed the "events" in my 2CD-2142s seem to go wacky at times. Lately line detection and intrusion detection started causing false positives every two or three minutes. Also, motion detection seems to get caught up in a funky loop at times. I have been able to successfully fix these... -

How to use Hikvision Audio and Alarm IO connections
Thank you for your response LaurentR. I have a Netgear GS516TP switch. I have seen several mentions of a POE switch only using 2 pairs of the cabling but don't know how to check the POE capabilities of my switch. Also, unfortunately, the switch is in the same room as the old hard wired can... -

How to use Hikvision Audio and Alarm IO connections
Thank you for your response Lowvoltage. Any idea how many cameras the open collector can handle? Is it unlimited? If not, I think the maximum number of cameras I would have in my house would be 6. Could 6 of them be tied together and work off the open collector? This opens another can of... -

How to use Hikvision Audio and Alarm IO connections
Hello everyone, I have two Hikvision 2CD2142FWD-IS cameras that I mounted as soon as I got them. Never though of connecting them to my 2GIG alarm system. Unfortunately they are somewhat difficult to get to. From reading this thread and memory, I am pretty sure they have two green I/O boxes...
