Assuming you setup your device following this video, you won’t have to alter any settings. As long as dhcp is on on the dvr/NVR and you are using platform access to connect to hikconnect then you’ll have no issue

Hi.. wondering if you are able to help? We have a Hik-Vision NVR and 4 cameras. All 4 feeds coming in. However as more people have started using the Live View we are seeing issues that not all users are able to see the feeds. Initially we had about 4 users, but now we have 6 or 7 we are seeing issues. I am wondering if I need to set them all to use SubStreams? Great content.. and working my way through your videos 👍 *Have sent you an email 🙏

CAUTION: Firmware updates MUST be completed sequentially one after another, not skipping any versions out. This instruction is given directly by Hikvision technical support themselves and the reason is because skipping firmware versions can break core functionality. Upload each one in turn - even if there are 10 of them, don't miss any!
@HikVisionGuru29 күн бұрын
This is a fair point to make, especially when updating from a much older version to a new version

No obstructions, the only time you’ll get an obstruction is if the top of the cavity is capped over, which is rare. The wall is held to the building by a piece of string I believe Kind regards Barry

It is a bit hit and miss depending on device firmware. We still use MS Edge, but we add the NVR url into internet explorer mode, you can do this by going onto Edge, clicking on the 3 dots in the top right, click on settings, click on default browser from the left menu, then “allow sites to be reloaded in IE mode” make sure is set to “allow”, then below that click “add”, then type in your ip and hit “add” Then type in the ip address into the internet search bar and it will load into IE mode

Apologies for hassle.
@HikVisionGuruАй бұрын
I would setup intrusion detection on the NVR, and set detection method to human/vehicle. Make sure intrusion is enabled with the tick box, draw your zone, go to linkage action and make sure “notify surveillance centre” is ticked, this will send notifications to hikconnect. You can set the speaker and strobe lights on independent schedules. You’ll find this under basic event, go to light output settings and audible speaker output settings.

I'll be using the information in this video to go fix that tomorrow! So thanks. But just wondering if there maybe something they have done to the device that may have caused a no video scenario that you haven't covered in this video? And if so what could cause such a situation?
@HikVisionGuruАй бұрын
Nice to hear! Do you know if it’s showing no video or no link? Just trying to establish if it’s an IP or analogue system. On ip systems it shows no link, on analogue shows no video. If it’s IP I’d make sure all cameras cables are plugged into the NVR correctly, I’d then go into the camera settings on the NVR and make sure they’re set to plug and play (unless the cameras have all been setup in static mode). Also make sure you’ve got flashing lights on the poe ports. If it’s an analogue system, I’d make sure the power cable is definitely plugged into the cameras and is operational.

Also, the verification code is not showing when I am following network set up. Your expert assistance would be most welcome. Thanks

If there is only 1 hard drive showing on the list of available hard drives, make sure the second one is properly connected. If not it could be faulty drive. As for verification code, it will be on the platform access screen, it maybe hidden with asterisks’, in which case you’ll need to click on the eye symbol to reveal it. If you’re unsure send me a picture of the screen to [email protected] Regards Chris

@HikVisionGuru3 ай бұрын
There’s only one way to find out I’m afraid, try it and see. We do see fire blocks or cavity capping at the top occasionally but not all too often, however that’s in the uk, as for the USA I’m not sure how common it is. Sometimes it can be useful to go up to roof tile height, remove a bottom tile and expose the cavity that way and you’ll have a much clearer view. From there you can feed your rods straight into the loft also.

When you clicked back into nvr web page and selected event and set the intrusion detection zone you then clicked on notification but why didnt you click on the light and audio links for that camera? I know you logged into that camera on the previous web page and selected the warning and flashing light but why didnt you tell it to flash and give audio warning in the nvr web browser page? Also i dont seem to be able to set the brightness or volume of the message. Every time i lower each one from 100 to say 50 and click save and go to another camera and then come back its set at a 100 again. What am i doing wrong?
@HikVisionGuru3 ай бұрын
At the time of recording the video the firmware was different, and it was advisable to set the strobe speaker via the cameras own interface as opposed to the NVRs. Currently, it is now advisable to set it up via the NVR menus and not directly on the camera. When you change the volume, hit save, does it say “save succeeded”? If it does and you’ve still got the issue I would then go to the maintenance menu and reboot the camera, then go back to the volume screen and see if it’s applied. Also make sure all camera and NVR firmwares are on latest version
@leemccluskey30633 ай бұрын
