I have had the Hikvision Villa intercom system (DS-KV6113-WPE1 door station + indoor station) up and running for around 2 weeks now. I am extremely happy with performance overall. But I have 1 or 2 things I wanted to put out there in case there is anyone with experience of this kit that may be able to tell me if I am doing something wrong or it's just a design flaw:
1) No tamper alert, other than a short and quiet alarm from the doorstation itself when the doorstation is removed. No alert on the internal station, no alert on the App. I had a look and couldn't see any relevant setting for this. Seems like a serious design flaw, the type of which I wouldn't expect from Hikvision.
2) Date format on the feed from the doorstation both in the App and on my NVR is incorrect. The indoor station shows it to the format I have selected (DD/MM/YYYY) but App and NVR show (YYYY/DD/MM). I can't understand why as I do not have this issue with my other Hikvision cameras.
Random shower thoughts more than anything! Would like to hear your thoughts on these points and of course if I'm doing anything wrong! Lol
The tamper one is a biggie for me to be honest. Of course, if there is a camera in my system most at risk of being tanpered with, it's definitely this one. So to have no tamper alert to the system is concerning!
