Is there a utility to change model numbers on a Hikvision IPC?

I like to change my R7 PTZ to a different model to see if the smart tracking feature is available.

Welcome Travel4mb,

How would changing the model number in a camera give it smart tracking features?

Because putting type-r on a civic makes it faster.. It sounds like ricing ip camera's :lol:

Or because changing a MAC address makes it a different brand. lol

back to topic. I don't think that changing the firmware from another (higher) model will give you any advantages or features. I know that there are hardware devices where this trick works, but that are oscilloscopes and other testing equipment. The manufacturer puts in the same pcb's and locks the features by software.
