Brief and final Update, I defaulted a 3rd IP camera, via my POE switch and logged on to the IP address after a I hard reset the camera, this one was on /229, not 108 and the initial defaulted IP Camera and proceeded to set a new PW. Once done, I removed it from my POE Switch and plugged this...

OK, fresh start today and a few coffee's in along with a little outside of the box thinking, I finally got them working and connected to the NVR!!! Yeah! :headbang: So what I did was I used my POE switch and connected both of the IP camera's to the POE switch, then I defaulted both camera's and...

OK so what Ive tried to do is add two camera's one static the other just defaulted with the camera set with DHCP. It made total sense the NVR would be NAT'ing the IPs of the camera, but this test now makes zero sense! I started the camera search in the NVR to add camera but comes up empty...

Hey TonyR Thanks for the message! I installed the Amcrest Surveillance Pro on windows to test a theory and this too doesn't find the camera when using the device search function, however if I add this manually with the static IP address the camera pops up in this program and I can view and...

G'Day All Need some guidance as I recently picked up 10 of these IP cameras and a Pacom SmartIP 16PM NVR from being dumped in ewaste and trying to get them to play nice with each other nut has me stumped. I am assuming majority of IP cameras and NVR's can communicate with each so I thought I'd...

Oh Yes, I forgot to say that I did reserve the IP address for this NVR via the router using MAC ADD so it should be ok for a while as the ISP just got updated, but if it does, then I at least have a better idea of how to get into it again Cheers Kosti

OK, installed back in the shop and all went well,! I did take a monitor and keyboard and my laptop just to make sure in case I ran into some issues. :p Both camera's are now operational again and the NVR is set to DHCP should they change ISP again. Just when I though my job was done, the...

OK chaps, I finally got some free time just now to play and try this and woot woot success!, It's alive!! I used the NVR GUI via HDMI and edited D1 to 192.168.254.10, then entered admin PW of camera 1234567a and boom I got image! Although I had to do this via manual setup, when I goto plug and...

Will give this a try chaps and get back you all Thanks heaps Cheers

Hey Mate I believe I have extracted the config file See attached Many Thanks Kosti PS, I assume I will have to extract the other camera or once we have the PW it would potentially be the same so I should be able to bring it online when onsite yeah? Cheers Kosti

OK thanks OK, I will rephrase -> I have the LAN port on NVR connected to the router -> I have the NVR POE port 3 connected to router -> I have camera connected to NVR POE port 1 -> PC is connected via wifi to router on same network I reset the NVR admin PW via the XML provided by HikVision...

Correct I too suspect camera PW is different since the NVR has been defaulted and new PW, hence I am hoping to default camera back to password 12345? Indeed, I've not know about the way these IP camera's and the POE of the NVR interact once on the network, assuming its done this way for...

Recap what I've done, NVR PW was changed as original admin PW was lost hence I reset via email from HikVision and set new PW on NVR. The other change to NVR was change to enable DHCP to prevent further ISP or IP issues. Initially the LAN was 192.168.1.x, new ISP was 192.168.0.x, all camera's...

Hey Alastair, I had done that I had connected it all back as it was the only problem the network had changed, so made the NVR DHCP so they never have to worry about changing ISP's again. When onsite SADP never could see the camera's at all when connected to the POE ports on the back of the NVR...

Hi All Took the NVR back to my friends store and thought I would be able to plug this back into the camera's and they are not seen by the NVR, wondering do I need the camera's PW or does the admin PW over ride the camera's The only way o got to see the camera's was to bring it all home again...

Just an update, Hikvision has sent file and first attempted not working resent them export and received new xml and was able to reset PW, Thanks again for the forum and great support Alistair! PEACE Kosti

Thanks mate for the info, I will need take this back if possible today with a laptop and try and see if the camera's are being detected. I am not sure which NVR GUI as when I try the web browser to the IP address of the NVR nothing comes up. No DHCP enabled otherwise it would've probably come...

Thanks heaps buddy! The whole issue was they changed modems and ISP, and so the entire network went down it was reconfigured for their uber eats tablet and Point of Sale machine and printers except for the NVR and camera's. Since they couldn't connect to them. Does the NVR and camera's need an...

Hey Mate, thaks for the quick reply, Unfortunately I only have the NVR here at home, the camera's are in there shop, I could go there although there is limited space to try this as tomorrow they are opening up after all the covid-19 stuff I've emailed HIK support so I hope they may get back to...

Hey All, Friend got a new internet provider NBN and messed up all of his camera and NVR, as he didn't know how to fix he disconnected it and brought it to me and it appears I need to send the cvs file to hikvision, as I've tried the tools and the SADP software but still no luck in getting into...

Possibly however the response indicated there was an understanding Again all I was asking for a review of possibly matching the same pricing given the items on the list

Not at all, I’m saying if one is offering the same item with free shipping or reduce price at least try to match that especially when buying more than one item.

Sure, had a look and messaged these other vendors with the same list All have come back with various pricing and have noted to me which are upgradable and which are “hacked” So I took this list and pricing and shared it Andy, however it’s the response that I got which was really disappointing...

Hey All Yes reading the cliff notes is a challenge as my eyes aren't as good and I'm old fashion and like to print and read, any way to download these cliff notes? @ SY, not sure if an alarm will catch the dog pooing on my lawn..:p - Although both homes are fully alarmed back to base hoping to...

Got a link for me to check cable type Thanks

Hey All I'm a newbie to surveillance and this technology, but trying to learn as quickly as I can and so I have put together a basic wish list of hardware. Happy for people with experience to critique & provide some feedback for mounting options based on where the sun rises, how high and...

Hey Inference I was thinking of trialing cams out but figured people already have experience with that and I could just grab a full kit and install it myself I’ve not seen the darkfighter so will take a look, thanks for the tip on that. Quick question, can u download the wiki cliff notes, I...

Thanks Chaps for the welcome! I've sent Andy my wish list although I was hoping there was a better price for forum members given he gets free advertising :D Once I have some basic idea of camera's and location i will post up a thread with my wish list for critique. Need to also add to my wish...

Hey All! Another Aussie from downunder located in Sydney Australia who's looking to get into the world of home surveillance. I've been floating around reading about this all CCTV stuff, and man its so overwhelming, I'm starting to sound like a nerd when I walk into some of the shops that sell...
