    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    Hi, it most certainly not do a factory reset on the camera. How have you got the camera hooked up to your home network and how are you remotely accessing the camera. There is a small chance that you've been a victim of the HIK Backdoor and someone has reset it for you. Paul

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    It's available in the GUI of the camera, but that then doesn't link it with the NVR. In the NVR the page is there, it just says 'Invalid Operation' when I try to save anything on that page.

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    So I've also upgraded the Camera to 5.4.5 as per @VorlonFrog post above, but I still cannot get my HIK NVR to save any Smart events to the device.. Not the end of the world, but if I was to use one in the Garage, then I'd like a notification if anything happens.

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    I had a quick look at the manual online, does this section help? 4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > VPN Service. The VPN Service page displays. 5. Select the Enable VPN Service check box. 6. Scroll down to the Clients will use this VPN connection to access section, and select the All sites...

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    I know on my VPN Server (Synology NAS Package) that there is an option to allow remote connections to connect to the LAN. I wonder if this is your issue? You're connecting in, but don't have access to the LAN machines.

    Is anyone using this with a HIK NVR and can you set the Smarts events up using the NVR, so you get email notifications etc?

    DS-2CD2335FWD-I - Hikvision Ultra Low Light 3M camera

    Ah sorry, I thought you were going to it. You have to have some light, mine is great on day mode when the street lights are on, but ours go off over night, so no joy. The ULL one is awesome though, you'd not be disappointed with one. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

    DS-2CD2335FWD-I - Hikvision Ultra Low Light 3M camera

    That looks like a dodgy version of the DS-2CD2345-I. Not a bad camera, but not a ultra low light one. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

    Hi, After seeing @jerrysimon's post on this camera I thought I'd take a punt on it. So far so good, but thought I'd post my findings on it. I bought it from Amazon UK for £56. You can find the manufacturers page here. Some quick stats. Specifications: Image Sensor: 1/2.8" Progressive...

    Seems a good value indoor domestic camera

    I'm in the UK, so got it from Amazon over here on one day delivery, a nice little camera. If I was going to do anything more specialised then I'd probably go for a 4MP HIK one, albeit at the increased cost, but for a quick overview camera or for just monitoring the garage it does just fine.

    Seems a good value indoor domestic camera

    Got mine up and running with my HIK NVR, can access the Smart Event features etc, but am having issues saving the settings within the NVR, saving in the Camera seems to be ok. It came with the 5.3.5 Firmware on it. Can post some more pictures later in this thread. Picture quality is OK, I...

    DS-2CD2335FWD-I - Hikvision Ultra Low Light 3M camera

    I doubt if you'll be able to use any of the Smart Event features.. Line Crossing, Intrusion detection etc.. That's on the Camera itself, not sure if the Synology package does this itself.

    If this is a re branded HIK Cube, I assume the NVR still cannot use the HIK protocol with it to access the Smart Events?

    Ultra Low Light Picture

    Are you logged directly into the Camera or using the settings within a NVR? From memory you have to log into the camera for this setting to be visibly. Should be under Configuration > Image > Display Settings. Gain is under Exposure Settings and I think you'll find the Smart IR as Smart...

    DS-2CD2335FWD-I - Hikvision Ultra Low Light 3M camera

    It depends on who you ask, the HIK crew or the D crew.. [emoji2] But for me this camera does the job and as you have the HIK NVR it's going to give you the most options to play with and the better comparability. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Correct, the lower the lux the lower light the camera can see in.

    DS-2CD2335FWD-I - Hikvision Ultra Low Light 3M camera

    I was going to ask for confirmation that these were the Ultra Low Light ones, as HIK seem to have used a very similar naming convention for a NON ULL camera. DS-2CD2335FWD-I - ULL DS-2CD2335-I - Not ULL The second was available in the UK previously and was a lot cheaper then the ULL one, but I...

    Experience with 2CD2142FWD ?

    HikVision also do a low light camera, which can be found in this thread. There are lots of options out there but do yourself a favour, unless the beach house is brightly lit 24*7, get yourself a lowlight capabile camera. Either Hik or Dahua.

    Can you roll back to the previous version, else you might have to wait until this is fixed. Have you submitted an issue to the author of BI?
