    admin default password - IPC Model: IP420/50

    Well I can't explain it but it was actually a blank password but I tried leaving it blank numerous times. I'll chalk it up to either being too old for this IT thingy any longer, or one of those little mysteries we come upon once in a while ;)

    admin default password - IPC Model: IP420/50

    Awesome, thanks for all this.. the admin password turned out to be blank. I kept hacking away and with the above info was successful This is actually a fairly decent camera video wise.. Like I said it was only $69.00 Canadian. Just trying to establish what type of sound it will capture. Thanks...

    admin default password - IPC Model: IP420/50

    Thanks for the response.. tried that this cam is a real stickler but for the price it is exactly what I need.. It's got some proprietary setup whereby you have to login into a mobile app called PS6 and then create an account on some site in order to be able to use the app to scan a qr code...

    admin default password - IPC Model: IP420/50

    This was supposed to be a cheap alternative to get a bit of sound out of an ipcam on one corner of my residence. Seemed to fit the bill with builtin-mic etc but for the life of me I can't get in the setup or access the camera in any way. The default admin user is not using any of the default...

    PTZ IPCam with Audio

    Thanks for that.. makes sense to me to offer an additional power option. I can't think of a situation where you would want to run a power and separate network cable but perhaps there would be an applicaiton for that

    PTZ IPCam with Audio

    Thanks again and your absolutely right.. That second smaller little dongle wasn't a mini audio mic plug, but rather a DC12V IN plug of some kind Not sure what this would be for but probably not a mic input.. although this simple Hik DS-2CD2032-I has audio options in the cam software

    PTZ IPCam with Audio

    I have three ptz currently and I recall that all three have a mini stereo plug along with the poe ethernet dongle sticking out Can I assume if it has the audio plug the mic goes there and the camera provides power to that.. just enable the correct audio options on the camera itself and blue...

    PTZ IPCam with Audio

    Would someone recommend a good ptz ipcam with audio capabilities... neighbors kids crank up the stereo and base boost in their garage every time the parents leave.. often blasting till 3-4 AM. Today I had the police show up and wouldn't you know it just as the police arrive the mom runs out and...

    How to - Fix your 15-beep-bootloop Hikvision DS-76xxN-Ex NVR, or convert to EN and make it updatable

    I got soooo sick of these hikvision knockoffs from Amazon.. can't dare reset the dvr or cams for fear of them coming back in chinese.. ridiculous that they can sell these legally buyer beware I guess I still use the three or four DS-2CD2032-I cams I've had for years but I saved myself a lot of...

    Recommendations - PTZ Cam - with sound capability

    I was hoping someone would be able to recommend a PTZ IP Cam (reasonably priced $150-$200 CAD) that has sound capability. I never required a camera with sound before but a new neighbor with an older dodge diesel half ton moved in next door All I need if for this camera to record sound to prove...

    Hi there... take my advice and save yourself a lot of grief with these older Hikvision NVR knock-offs. Blue Iris was the best 55 or 60 bucks I ever spent. I already had a spare computer so the cost to me was only for the Blue Iris software itself but it was wayyyyy worth the effort This PC has...

They appear when you select the "Full Camera List" but show have "no image" in the little screen? This came up suddenly the other day and I don't...

    Need a new NVR - No Grey Market - Thoughts?

    I have had a Hik DS-7108-SN/P for several years but for the past few months I can see it is nearing it's end. It was a grey market I picked up at amazon 7 years ago or so.. I reset to factory a several weeks ago and now I can't find a firmware to put it back to the way it was.. One of the...

    Hikvision DS-7108N-SN/P - NVR greymarket apparently

    It appears that when the DS-7108N-SN/P is reset to factory it comes back in English at the local interface with this firmware, thanks again ;0 One thing I noticed is that the three ptz cameras I have return an "operation failed or no permission" error when you try any of the ptz controls These...

    Hikvision DS-7108N-SN/P - NVR greymarket apparently

    Thank you very much.. worked like a charm via tftp, a reload a few times with same result. As far as you know would a reset to factory still return with an english menu?

    Hikvision DS-7108N-SN/P - NVR greymarket apparently

    I bought this DS-7108N-SN/P several years ago off of Amazon when I first got home surveillance cameras.. I had no idea there was such a large greymarket out there particularly with hikvision. Anyway this nvr ran flawlessly for the past five years until a couple of months ago. I reset it to...

    Re: Hikvision POE LAN segment - access to cameras without virtual host or extra wirin Thanks for the reply I would much prefer the virtual host feature but that isn't supported on this 7108, at least with the current firmware. Appears obtaining the latest firmware for most hikvision nvr is a...

    Disable BI email alerts

    Several weeks ago I enabled sending email alerts from BI. Added my email address, smtp server info, etc and worked like a charm. I recall having to add the smtp server in a separate preference tab from my email address info. Now I want to disable email alerts and I can't for the life of me...
