In the end I bought 100m of Cat6 UTP (unshielded) AW23 external solid cable for £45, which works out at around £137.25 for a 305m roll, but I didn't require that much. I decided to go for unshielded because a) I'm fairly sure I can run it between the camera and NVR without coming into contact...

Yes, you are correct. At the moment I'm "playing" with the NVR and cameras in my home office, so regularly powering it down when it is not required, but eventually it will be running 24/7. Still, I have a Synology NAS that runs 24/7 but I'm still able to "cleanly" power it down using software...

Thanks Dan, that's what I got from the other posts, but as they were old'ish, I was hoping this would have been rectified by now.

I've found a couple of posts regarding shutting down NVR's, but I'm unable to find any options in either iVMS-4200 or the NVR web application to allow me to shutdown my DS-7608NI-I2-8P. Am I missing something or is flicking the power switch on the back of the NVR how Hikvision expect their...

Thanks Dan. Useful to know that the image settings can be adjusted as I do prefer the warmer image from the 4mm cameras. Not that it really matters at the end of the day as once the system is installed I suspect I will forget about it until it is required!

I previously posted requesting some assistance on camera positioning (see here) and today I found time to try positioning both 2.8mm and 4.0mm lens cameras (DS-2CD2347G2-LSU/SL 4MP) at the front of my house to determine the best position. It's interesting how lens sizes can make a difference as...

Ignore my last remark, I've reason to believe this isn't a browser issue as I'm able to run the NVR configuration web pages and use the links to connect to the cameras and this works in Chrome, IE and Edge. The only time I'm having an issue is when I use iVMS-4200 to access the NVR...

Hi Dan, my DNS server settings were blank, so I've added the DNS values you have suggested, unfortunately it doesn't make any difference. I also tried clearing Google Chromes cache, just in case it was holding onto something, but still no luck! This appears to be a Chrome issue as if I start...

...... and I can confirm it works as expected :-)

I've just found this post, which I guess is the one you guys are referring to and it does appear to confirm it is one in the same - both the strobe light alarm and the constantly on led light i.e. one or the other. Configuration is performed using the Flashing Alarm Light Output menu and...

The DS-2CD2347G2-LSU/SL includes ColorVu, AcuSense and "Audio and Strobe Light Alarm" functionality. I had assumed "Flashing Alarm" was part of the "Audio and Strobe Light Alarm", which I would assume is different to the LED's turning on to improve light levels when movement is detected, but...

I have a DS-7608NI-I2-8P NVR and some DS-2CD2347G2-LSU/SL cameras. I have setup Virtual Host and can see the Connect URL's displayed in the (Chrome) browser configuration page: As you can see, I currently only have one camera connected. When I click on the Connect URL, a new window opens...

I have some DS-2CD2347G2-LSU/SL cameras and want to enable the option to cause the White Light LED's to come on during a triggering event. I have read How do I set my Hikvision ColorVu camera's built-in light to be activated during event periods? My camera was already on a later version than...

Thanks David, you posted at the exact same time I figured it out i.e. I determined I needed to turn on Virtual Host and this then provides the Connect URL's for each camera in the System/Camera Management screen. However, I found that when I click on the link for the only camera I have setup...

Apologies if my question has been asked and answered many times before, but here goes. I have a DS-7608NI-I2-8P NVR with a DS-2CD2347G2-LSU/SL camera directly plugged into the back of it. The IP address for the NVR is 192.168.0.64, which is in the 192.168.0.3 to 192.168.0.254 range configured...

I've just had the following response from Hikvision support: <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Email Start Dear customer Thanks for the provided details, we would suggest upgrading the device's firmware to latest one which can be found in the following...

Yes, I've tried rebooting the NVR, but haven't attempted to re-apply the firmware as everything else "appears" to be okay. I say "appears" as I'm new to the software, so just trying to find my way around it. I've just sent an email explaining the issue to support.uk@hikvision.com and received...

Thanks for posting. I've just tried changing my config to use time.windows.com and it makes no difference. Whenever the DST Bias is set to 60 mins, the Device Time changes to half an hour in the future! No idea what is going on. Are you using the same 210628 build as me: I think I need to...

Thanks Dan, I thought I must be missing something and I was! I hadn't "Added" my NVR, which I realised after watching the video you provided a link to. Now I see that I can access the web pages of the NVR through this software. I think this is what you mean by "Remote Configuration" i.e. via...

Thought I would update this post as I've just purchased the DS-7608NI-I2-8P NVR. I really wish I had seen this post first as it might have persuaded me to buy something else, but I don't know what. I'm really surprised at just how loud the fans are in the NVR. Originally, I had planned to...
