Needs to registered with Hik-Connect - not just added as a local device using its IP. Some camera and NVR/DVR functionality is only available when your using the Hik-Connect service.

It's generally a function of the NVR and is not the same when you're recording to an SD card. Depending on the camera it may be possible if you have the camera registered and added to Hik-Connect.

There is no chart or explanation. Those modes are simply friendly names for a saved set of image parameters. Each of those image parameters in those modes can be manually adjusted and saved to suit requirements - they're just examples. You could set them however you want and schedule them to...

Whether you changed any settings or not doesn't really make a difference. You're going to need to log into the camera (assuming it's an IP camera and not HD analogue) and check the image settings. If it's a HD analogue camera the settings are accessed differently using the PTZ controls to send...

We need to know the precise model number of the camera to confirm, but it looks to me as though you possibly have a G3 ColorVu, with exposure set to Manual instead of Auto. In that mode the exposure is fixed rigidly at the set exposure time and will not adjust regardless of available light...

As mentioned further up, I've never had a failure yet and installed hundreds.

I'm not sure myself as I do very little with the intercoms. The user on here that seemed to be most knowledgable about the intercoms was @KamirZG but they haven't been on the forum since December.

You should be able to unbind with the admin password. Teh only time of had an issue is with an older DVR with version 3 firmware.

I think no - at least the one I had installed at home didn't. You can configure via teh station screen but I used to just temporarily import it into iVMS-4200 and configure it there as I found it easier.

Yes. Person A needs to select the new camera in their 'Shared Devices' list. I added some cameras to a site last week and had the same thing (shared user reporting no access). I did it using the browser. Person A logs needs to login to their account at www.hik-connect.com Click on shared...

They are waterproof - plastic conduit when used with adapters is waterproof. As said in my first reply though, the camera is waterproof to IP65 and with the gland fitted on the RJ45 coupling you shouldn't have any issue. Some say to wrap that gland with self amalgamating tape but I never will...

The Hikvision box is not natively designed to take a 20mm conduit. That's a female adapter (I'd guessed it was a male). It really does not matter. If you want it to be 'correct' you'll need to source a 25 - 20mm reducer bush which you'll get from any electrical wholesaler/screwfix/toolstation...

No. Just replace the disk and initialise it. All settings remain intact. Be sure to only replace it with a surveillance grade drive - Seagate Surveillance/Skyhawk, Western Digital Purple or Toshiba S300.

In the image in your first post you can try ticking the box next to the HDD then clicking the 'Rebuild all data' button. Sometimes the recording database can becoming corrupted and it appears to not be recording with the history missing, so try that first. It takes some time. If that doesn't...

There is no issue there. Once the hard drive fills for the first time and starts overwriting, it will always show the remaining space as 0. When the HDD is overwritten it doesn't wipe the drive and start again with a full drive, it deletes the oldest recording 'chunk' to make room for the newest.

Yes both are fine and there’s little chance of water getting in.

TBH it's not critical as the camera is IP65 rated without the backbox. In the second image the 20mm plastic conduit has a male adaptor fitted (exposed thread). The exposed thread on that adaptor would normally be inserted through the side of an enclosure with a locking on the inside of the...

No. The maximum is 4 cameras or 40Mbps incoming bandwidth, whichever is reached first. If you want to add cameras you'll need to upgrade to a DS-7608NXI-K1/4P(D) which would allow up to 8 cameras (or 80Mbps incoming bandwidth). You'd also get the benefit of AcuSense (Human/Vehicle event...

My guess: Hikvision Plug and Play only works with unactivated cameras. You activated the camera and assigned a LAN address with SADP....you should have plugged it straight into the NVR which would have both activated the camera and assigned its address in the correct range. The NVR possibly...

Image quality will be the same as you currently have, but you'll get the added convenience of the AcuSense functionality. I tend to only install IP systems when at all possible but when I did fit HDTVi analogue (what you have), I wasn't a fan of that camera. The PoC version you have is fairly...
