I have struggled to find many videos online or been shown how to fish cavity walls on the job until now, thanks to you I am confident on how to do this after watching your video. Also being a junior fire and security engineer I have found programming quite technical especially adding cameras from a switch but with this channel all I have to do is scroll through during work and I can easily find what I need to do with an easy step by step video clip in order to get the job done. I can’t thank you enough for creating this account and making my life so much easier when I need it the most.

Entered! Thank you for the wonderful comments Callum!
The most comprehensive DIY instructions on the Internet. Brilliant
Entered! Thank you for the kind words Alan!
@@HikVisionGuru I am considering getting the hick vision colour view PTZ ,along with a couple of domes ,can you recommend an appropriate 4 channel NVR, and switcher
@@mewsicmaker22 Hi Alan, which ColourVu ptz are you looking at? Just wanted to make sure that you’re aware it does not have an optical zoom, just a digital zoom.
You would require a DS-7604NI-K1/4P
Will all of your camera cables be terminating in the NVR? If so you will not need a switch, as the NVR has built in POE.
Indeed ,best video and explaination on the web. 3 days of searching for info and found this. He is the best for sure. Had a headache trying to find an answer or how to set up.
Chris helped me so much. People like you are so hard to find, but grateful for having found you. Thanks for everything you did!
No worries it was a pleasure, glad I could help 👍🏼
Hi Hik Guru. This is an awesome video. Very easy to understand and actually does contain everything needed to set up the NVR. Great tips as well. I really appreciate all your support. I’m so glad I found your channel!!
Entered! Thanks for the kind words Whitney it’s means a lot
Brilliant video. Thank you. Got an NVR arriving tomorrow so this helped massively.
👏 👏
Thank you so much for this video, made setup incredibly easy!
I've been a victim to the so called professionals in this business, for a long time; they've invaded my privacy and wallet, and they've made sure to get me calling them every now and then (with a charge) for some tiny flaw which they invented it by having access to my NVR, without my knowledge.
They are criminals down here, so can you just imagine the much appreciation I hold to you releasing this 8 K clarity video? you've just freed me from a never ending stealing my money and privacy.
Many thanks HIK GURU
That’s awful to hear! I’m so glad we could help you. Let us know if we can help with anything else
Thanks for the video, problem now sorted, I must have watched 30 that were useless until I found yours 👍
Thank you for taking the time to share. Very helpful. Keep up the good work!
Appreciate the kind words Will!
Thanks so much I couldn't setup my app without your help
Hi Guru.
If I don't have a router near my Hik is there a way to connect to the Internet? My camera IP addresses are shown but no picture coming through.
Regards, Andy
Thanks for the vid very useful. I'll be asking the odd question if that's okay as my NVR has just been fitted and a big learning curve.
thanks for sharing! great video!
Another useful video, really enjoying the series!

Hello, following your brilliant video I've managed to set up my NVR and Hikvision cameras. Everything works lovely, great resolution day and night and dead easy to retrieve particular events. The one thing I'm having difficulty with, which I thought would be the easy bit, is viewing the live feed via my smart (LG) TV ! The TV is situated at the opposite side of the house to the NVR so was hoping the feed could be achieved via wifi, which is really strong throughout the house. I've looked at a few options but so far not succeeded in getting the feed to the telly, wondered if you could help out please?
Hi Stuart that’s great to hear!
Best option if feasible is to either run a hdmi or a cat6 cable across with a couple of hdmi over cat6 converters. If running a cable isn’t an option then I’d just use a wireless hdmi transmitter/receiver. It’s a shame you can’t get the app on smart tv’s yet!
Thank you very helpful and easy to understand
I appreciate the kind words! If you need any further information or advice please do let me know.
Awesome video …thank you it’s really useful and has helped out heaps. I was having trouble activating cameras but noticed they appear on the nvr anyway…is the activation automatic? Also while the cameras appear on the nvr and via Hik-Connect they don’t seem to appear when I login via a laptop?
Hi Simon, by default the camera activation is automatic, assuming the cameras have never been used previously and the NVR ports are set to plug and play. Via the laptop, are you using the web interface or software like ivms4200? If you’re using the web interface try going to configuration on there, then local, then make sure that “auto start live view” is enabled and click save. Then click on live view at the top and see if they load. Let me know if you get an error code in the bottom right corner.
😀Super useful video. Thanks a lot. Save me a lot of time. Thanks a a lot for this great video with every step very well explained.
Hi, is it possible to remove the record red sign from the live view on the monitor or is it not possible? Thank Icecy :)
Hi! I’m afraid there isn’t a way to do this at the moment, although I find lots of people do find it annoying and in the way.
The only way to do it would be to disable recording.
I’ll contact HikVision and see what they say if they can implement a setting in a future update :)
@@HikVisionGuru Great Thanks, I don't really mind it but it caused Screen burn on my LG OLED TV and a big cost to replace the screen. Thanks so much for taking the time to reply and please let me know if they do update this. Maybe if they know it's causing Screen burn they may do something. Thanks again Icecy x
Best on you tube , we'll done keep these videos coming
Entered, thanks for the kind words Jenno much appreciated
Very clear , Great video
Great vids my friend! Do you know how to enable the motion “yellow markers” in the Hik connect playback app? As now it all blue no yellow markers…. I had I working before not sure what happened
Thank you! Do you not have motion detection alerts enabled at all on the app so that you can see all of the motion events there?
Hi Guru great video. One question. I have just one Hikvision-ptz 4mp cam hooked up to same NVR as this one. Is it possible to view higher resolution than 1920x1080 (1080p) on live view on 2k monitor via HDMI cable? when I set VGA/HDMI resolution higher than recommended 1080P, it doesn't work and I get a warning that VGA resolution is maxed out 1080P. Datasheet says up to 4K on one channel, so I'm confused why it is not working. Cheers J
YOU ARE AMAZING!
Awh thanks!
Bloody marvelous
Thanks for videos, very helpful for myself about to launch a security firm. Thats why id like to win a prise aha... can be added towards my startup costs witch are mounting quick!

Very useful! thanks! which camera do you have in this setup/video? thanks
Hi David, it’s a 4MP ColourVu product code DS-2CD2347G2-LU
@@HikVisionGuru thanks!!
Good day. I just installed a DVR, a couple of Hik vision cameras and an interphone on my home. I was wondering if there's a way to set up an alexa eco show (the one with the diplay) to either display the cameras and/or to be able to answer the interphone. Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi Luis, HikVision/Hik-Connect is not directly supported by the echo show, however I believe there are some ways around it by using RTSP, although we don’t have experience using these echo devices I’m afraid.
Nice 👍 video 😊
Thanks great video. Very helpful. As I'm IT guy I get calls about absolutely everything. In-laws have had visitors and they have completely messed up and apparently no video signal is showing at all. 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?
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.
Great video! Question - My NVR is upstairs in a closet in a space that is occupied by tenants. I access the cameras using the Hik-Connect app on my phone or tablet. Id like to set up a separate standalone LCD monitor in the basement using the Hik-Connect app to have the cameras displayed all the time. Is this possible without running any additional wiring down to the basement?
Hi Phil! Options are, use a computer and watch the cameras via that, or, use a wireless HDMI transmitter/receiver, depending on how many floors it is the signal should reach, although these are fairly expensive.
Hi Guru, thank you for the prompt reply! Its only 1 floor so, it should reach. I was under the impression to use one of these extenders that I would need to run CAT5 cabling to reach the receiver. Everything in the basement is wireless connection via WiFi. Is that accurate that a hardwired internet connection is needed?
Awesome video! I am trying to understand if I need to have on the DVR the NAT enabled under network setting if I already have the TCP/IP enabled ?
Depends what you are trying to do, 99% of the time we have it turned off
@@HikVisionGuru just connecting DVR to the Internet so HIkconnect can be used.
Don’t need to enable nat then, just make sure under platform access Hik-Connect is enabled and applied, status should show online.
@@HikVisionGuru Thank-you for your feedback. I am receiving loads of illegal logins on the DVR and thought turning this off stop this?
Great videos thanks.
Question.?.How do you view your CCTV cameras on your Android phone from outside your home eg if your up town or away from home?.
Our video should be able to guide you through

Hi, I have a dvr and an nvr in one site but they both located in different offices, is it possible to add the dvr to the nvr so the cams can be viewed all from the nvr
Hi Rudi, you wouldn’t be able to add it this way no. A solution would be to add the system to ivms4200 software and view remotely online.
Hi I've start to work as a security installer a year ago and working with hikvision cctv almost every day can you tell me how do you setup resolutions frames etc for the cameras...many thanks for help
Good morning. If you are on the nvr/dvr's web interface page, you can find these settings under "configuration" "video/audio". If you are using the nvr/dvr's local interface (using a screen) you would go to "menu" "camera" (small icon at the top of screen on latest firmware), then "video parameters" and you'll find the settings in there again. On older firmware you'd go to "menu" "recording" "parameters". If you'd prefer me to make a full video on this explaining the different settings just let me know. Kind regards
@@HikVisionGuru hi thanks for reply 😊
When you catch time if you can post video about that subject....you deserve more subscribers and video views...explain me more than senior engineers in one year
@@TheMmata no worries I appreciate it, I’ll get onto the video as soon as possible
Pleame I'm from Ghana and I know how to install cctv camera but I don't know how I will establish my works please can someone help me out
after setting up. did you need a dedicated computer or monitor for this? comparing against a EUFY where you dont need any PC for the set up
Hi Joe, you don’t need a dedicated pc or monitor although you will need something just for the initial setup. You can use either a tv/monitor or a computer.
Hi! Hik Guru.Thank you for taking the time to share this Video. I've one question. Is it a must to have a router and internet connection to get a remote view from other location ?
Yes you will need some form of internet connection, Hik do a range of NVRs with a SIM card slot for built in 4g connection if you don’t want a separate router
@@HikVisionGuru Thanks bro. I've one more Q. should I be on the same network to gain remote access from other devices?
Hi
Great video.
One question - why change 'prefered' DNS setting to Google ?
Thanks Tony, at the time of making this video these dns settings were always the go to settings for cctv dvrs/nvrs. However now, the best option is auto dns.
Thanks very much for this detailed video guide! Super helpful. I'm looking at getting 3 x 8MP (4k) Smart Hybrid Colorvu & IR Acusense IP cameras (DS-2CD2387G2H-LIU). What NVR would you recommend? Not sure whether M-series is needed, or if I-series would suffice? Thanks Hik Guru
Hello! Yes for x3 8MP you would want the M series DS-7608NI-M2/8P, this has enough decoding resources for your 8MP cameras. The K series or the 4ch NVRs don’t have enough resource. The M and I series are the same price
@@HikVisionGuru thanks very much! Thats good to know… I wasn’t sure whether the extra expense was needed. But good thing I checked. Thanks!
@@HikVisionGuru Is there 'portrait' mode capabilities on either this camera or NVR? For example, rotating the camera 90 degrees to give maximum coverage down a narrow path along the side of a house. Many thanks!
Great vid! Does this NVR support/have acusense? It's hard to find online - specs say Smart Detection and human/vehicle ID but not sure if that's different from Acusense.
Many Thanks
The NVR used for this video didn’t have AcuSense. The new AcuSense 4 channel NVR product code is DS-7604NXI-K1/4P
@HikVisionGuru Ah okay 👍 but if the camera has Acusense you can still use the features like you have in this vid?
Yes correct 👍
very nice
good job
Hi, Just watched your Appreciation Giveaway video. I’d like to enter as you’ve helped me many times and it is always greatly appreciated.
Good luck to everyone that enters 🙂

Hi Hik Guru,
I really appreciate your video its very informative, and wonder if you can help me.I got exactly the same NVR and i set it up exactly the way you describe but i also bought REVOTECH HD Securty Camera Model:IPIR-P-FHW and i can't get it to work. Status is Detect
Hi Amir, thanks for the appreciation!
Have you tried setting the protocol from “HikVision” to “onvif” if you edit the settings on the add camera page
@@HikVisionGuru Yes i have change it to ONVIL but still not working
Is the camera plugged directly into the NVR or into a switch elsewhere ot
Just wondering why change the dns? Thanks in advance and great videos
Hey! At the time of recording, this was the correct way. You now just need to select auto DNS, otherwise you may have issues getting the device online.
Another great video, thank you. Would it be possible for a new NVR setup video with the new system settings? Tvm
Thanks! Yes certainly can do! What NVR are you using? 4ch and 8ch nvrs have slightly different interfaces on some versions
Awesome. DS-7608NI-M2/8P is the model I am using. Thanks
As an ADT technician this is gold
Thanks Mr Incognito, means a lot! Also entered into our latest giveaway
Comment for giveaway, I’d use the camera to fit at my ma’s house she needs one at her door. Also love your content been a supporter since day 1. Love
Entered! Thanks for the kind words Top!
Hi - your videos have great content and extremely helpful. Can you please do a tutorial on the DS-7608NI-M2/8P model. I am a little stuck when it comes to configuring - i.e. I have two 4tb hard drives in the NVR, however, only one is displayed. 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 info@bearwatchcctv.com

Hi. Can I record the video stream from the camera directly to a Network drive or NAS drive irrespective of whether I have internal hard disc or not?
Hi Parambir, yes you can connect your ipc directly to a nas with no need for a nvr hdd. Hope this helps
@Hik Guru Great. I already have a MyCloud 6TB which is connected to my router. It will be great if this device can directly save on the drive. By any chance you have a video on this?
Hi Guru. How do I connect a switch to the NVR and have all the cameras(6) connected to the switch display individually and independently. I have one cable running to the switch at the cottage from the main house. But when the footage comes, either one camera comes up or they interchange on one window.
Hello! Is your system IP or analogue? If IP, are the cameras plugged directly into your NVR, or do they all go into a network switch?
NIce tutorial. I just deactivate recording but i do not know why. I just found that i was only recording until this morning..How do i know that recording is on? I am using my desktop to get connecter to the nvr.
Thanks
Hi Alex! Are you able to see the live view on a monitor connected directly to your NVR? If so you should be able to see a red square 🟥 recording symbol indicating that that channel is recording.
Alternatively, if you are on your desktop and connected via the NVRs IP address on the web browser interface, simply navigate to “configuration” (top menu) “storage” (left menu) “schedule settings” you should then see the recording schedules, you can change camera via the list labelled “camera”. If you want recording on ensure that “enable” is ticked, and make sure that the schedule is set. For 24/7 record the times/days should all be a solid blue.
@@HikVisionGuru i have two camera connected to nvr, both are ebable check using browser.....but just one shows the bar and records the other does not.....any posibble reason why that one with same setting does not record? thanks
Hi. If I've already had the system up and running is there a way of going back to the start sequence so I can follow your video? Or a factory reset? Trying to view online. Cheers
Hello! You can find all the settings in the menus of the dvr/NVR. However, If you wanted the startup wizard like in the video, go to configuration, tick the box “enable wizard”, then reboot the system, when it reboots you will have the wizard. Hope this helps
@@HikVisionGuru thanks will give that a try tomorrow. 👍
OK Mr guru im back and have some questions about a couple of problems im having
So i linked up one camera to the nvr indoors and then added the app to my phone and got the whole thing working nicely with sound and 2 way audio
once that was all working nicely i then bolted it all to the outside of the house and added a further 2 cameras to ports 2 and 3
all 3 cameras work on the nvr and are connected to my phone BUT
the first camera i set up indoors works fine with audio of whats going on outside coming to my phone.........but the 2 cameras i added on ports 2 and 3 dont have any audio to the phone
i can get 2 way audio on all 3 cameras but i cant hear whats going on outside on cameras 2 and 3 and funnily enough they also dont seem to want to put the spot light on full brightness either
ive tried turning audio on at the nvr and desktop screen and ive also turned on the audio button on my phone but no joy
would adding those 2 further cameras after getting the first one running be anything to do with it as it is those 2 further cameras that are playing up..??
Under the recording parameters is the video type set to “video & audio” and not just “video”?
@@HikVisionGuru OK guru ive had a look and found the parameters page and you were correct.....i didnt have it set as video/audio......thanks for your help and expertise
also one thing i noticed just incase anyone is reading this is the audio wont come through on your phone unless you have the video set to HD.........If its just on basic you dont get any audio
you da man Hik guru
Hi Guru, I try to connect with Synology NAS; how does this work?
Hello. My office is currently using the 4port and its full. they want to add another 2 cameras. can i just plug in a switch to one of the port and adding the cameras there?
Hi there! Yes you can do, if not buy a bigger switch and plug them all into that.
can I enable H.265+ 10:44 ? you did not talked about it? since my camera and NVR support it
Hi Jarrah!
We don’t normally recommend h265+ as we find it to be rather unstable as many other people have reported. Sometimes you’ll have a laggy playback or the live view will stagger. H264 is the most stable, however uses much more storage space, only use H265 if storage space is an issue as it will massively improve
Hi ! Great video! Can I also connect DAHUA camera's on the same NVR from Hikvision ?
Thanks! Yes you can connect Dahuas
@@HikVisionGuru Thanks! I did so, reset the camera's, but I don't see them on the NVR :-( Were can I look ? Thanks
Depending on your nvrs firmware version, you’ll want to head to the ip camera screen where you can edit/add ip cameras. You may need to change the protocol from HikVision to onvif
How about a video how to setup Hikvision iVMS-4200 remote vieewing? I know there are different procedures for different rounters but at least what ports to forward etc...
That is one video I certainly do need to make! Thanks for the feedback
Hi mate thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge with us, I have done all the steps as per your video , two of ip turret cameras directly connected to the Poe port of my nvr. Nvr is directly wired to my router. I can access the NVR through browser and it’s detected in SANP app . But I still have my cameras status “ inactive” in the camera settings section of the nvr. lights on both cameras port at the back of nvr are blinking . But in your video the camera was already “online” without further adjustments or settings. Also on Peo settings it’s showing my two cameras are connected and are consuming 4 watts each .Can you please kindly tell me what to do to have my cameras online?😢 thanks again mate
Hi Kevin! When setting up the NVR, did you set the IPC channel password when you created the NVR password? Or clicked duplicate NVR password to ipc channels?
@@HikVisionGuru thanks for getting back to me mate , honestly I don’t know what IPC is but when I was going through nvr settings from scratch there was a section that I ticked the “ camera password the same as device” box. The thing is that because we have activated DHCP then my cameras already have their own specific Internal IP address chosen by the nvr itself which are different from external IP addresses. and I can not modify them through SADP as my cameras are not visible in SADP. Any suggestions are much appreciated.. if you have email address I would be able to send you screenshots as well . Thanks legend
@@kevin6856 IPC is just ip camera. That’s the correct box to be ticking what you said “camera password same as device”. If you want to send some screenshots to HikGuru.yt@gmail.com
Did you make the camera ethernet cables yourself or were they readymade?
@@HikVisionGuru thanks mate , yes I did the cables myself and the ones I made before worked fine . They are around 40 meters each I believe if not both , at least one of them is 100% working because I tested it somewhere else with another camera , also in the Poe settings of the nvr it was showing two ports are consuming 4watts each which could be a sign of correct camera to the nvr connection .. it’s very generous of you to share your email , I will send you screenshots tomorrow morning. currently it’s 21:35 pm Down under :) and I don’t have access to the system . Thanks a million

Hi
Is it imperative to change the preferred and alternative DNS server settings whilst setting up ???
Hi Trevor, we sometimes find this dns setup to be better, however only recently the auto dns seems to be doing a better job.
@@HikVisionGuru Thanx for that, thought it may of had an impact on the live view issue I mentioned previously but to be fair I’ve tried everything and come to the conclusion as long as it plays fine on the DVR straight to a monitor all is well as I’ve found that H.265+ seems to be quite consistent all round without any real major issues.

Can I make the trigger zone not notify me when I come in the zone or even when my car is there
Hi Johnny, do you mean set an exception for you and your car specifically so it only triggers at other people and not yourself?
If we use only Acusense camera, Target detection will enable? If we use normal camera, it won't?
Correct, or you can use an AcuSense dvr/NVR instead of AcuSense camera.
Excellent video - I was following it to complete the registration and had nearly finished when must have clicked on something and the screen went black. In order to complete the registration I tried to sign in again but it was asking for a password but did not accept any that I had set up. I got a message saying that a verification code would be sent to my e mail address which I had set up and it would arrive in the next 5 minutes - it didn't arrive. Is there any way I can start the registration process again as I can only get the screen showing my cameras but I cant do anything else. Any info would be appreciated.
Did you check your junk mail at all?
Did you set an unlock pattern on the device at all or just a password?

Thanks . This movie help me a lot. The only problem I have is on app ( iphone 12pro) it opens a camera on basic not on hd . When try to switch to hd 3/4 of picture is green and 1/4 of it perfect clear hd visuality. I have tried to close eye one 3 cameras and left one but It doesn’t work anyway. Any advice?? Appreciate your help
Hi Konrad, I’d suggest updating all of your cameras (if IP) and your dvr/nvr firmware. Are you running the recording on H264/+ or H265/+? What bitrate are the cameras set to? If you’re unsure where to find these let me know
Resolution on camera - 8mp. I have tried 16384 Kbps. On NVR cameras perfect clear but on app only problem exist when try to switch to hd
It is quite a high bitrate especially for x4 8mp cameras. Is it a 4 or 8ch NVR? I’ve seen disabling stream encryption on platform access increases the stream loading but then you’ve got security vulnerabilities.
On your movie hd on app came straight away with no problem. That telling me probably somewhere on settings might be problem. I have setup everything on 4k settings in my NVR. Any way thanks for speedy response.

I have 4 mp dome cameras hooked on a Hikvision nvr, I can’t hear no sounds from the kitchen dome camera and I think it has a built in mic , any ideas 💡on what could be the problem ?
Hi Sidi. Have you got the full product code of the camera and we’ll be able to check if it has a built in microphone.
Normally you have to enable the video and audio stream in the parameter settings, which by default is video only.
So does it matter where the nvr is located in the network or do the cameras have to be plugged into the nvr.
Hi Dan, the cameras do not have to be plugged directly into the nvr. They can be anywhere on the network, you would just need a POE injector or a POE switch etc. if you need information on how to add a camera from your network onto your NVR we have a video

@@HikVisionGuru thank you for the reply. Much appreciated. Now I can set up my hik-vision NVR with clearity and no " what did I do". Have a great day. And great video contents my friend!!!
Trying to connect ReoLink LAN powered ONVIF camera - cannot get this to work with HIKVISION NVR? Any suggestion
Have you set the camera to onvif via the NVR ipc adding
Having trouble setting up the Hik-connect app. On platform access I don't have a choice for Hik-connect, I have "Guarding Vision" or "ISUP". Any suggestions? it seems to prevent the complete setup of the Hik-connect app.
Thanks
Hi Richie, if you use guarding vision that should do the trick
@@HikVisionGuru Thanks but i was confused because that was my only choice and I couldn't get the feed on the app. Turned out after trying different things I had to "unbind" it. Then it worked.
Do you know what IP address imputing manual entry. In the Hik-connect app? Ip/Domain. I have port forwarding in to my router. It works only in Wi-Fi, but does not work when I’m on cellular. Any suggestions?
Hi Jakob, you will need to use your routers external IP address and not the internal. You can find your external ip by typing into Google “see my IP”
@@HikVisionGuru do I take my external IP address and input it on manual up/domain? With port forwarding into my router using the IP address from the external address?
@@jakobporterz3211 you would input the external address into Hik-Connect ip, you’d need to port forward the address of your NVR, the local ipv4 address.
Hi i have a question. I connected nvr to 1 port of my company network witch. Now to use another network series to avoid using all camera same IP series how to configure ip addressing in nvr
I would suggest this video here, let me know if you still get stuck

Hi Guru,
I’ve installed 4x camera to my Hikvision NVR. When I view live mode, I notice some of the cameras go fuzzy and are unstable and when I select a particular camera to view, the image is stable.
Please advice. Thanks
Good morning Saj! Is this on a local screen or on Hik-Connect live view?
It’s on Hik- connect live view from iPhone
@@sajakhtar4941 if you load one of the cameras, then in the bottom left corner can you see it says “basic” or “hd”, tap on that, and make sure “hd” is selected. This will make sure the camera is in main stream mode, the basic mode is sub stream which is lower quality however May load quicker.
How do I add the Hik Connect camera to a different network on NVR..thx
Hi! What exactly do you mean by different network? You should be able to add any ip camera to the NVR, unless you mean they are at 2 different premises
@@HikVisionGuru I mean using wireless not at same Ip segment ...different place, as function ddns..can hik connect do that, bounding to Nvr..Simply is join hik connect between cctv to Hik connect nvr
Hello sir, I'm confused about the NVR I will purchase, can you help me? I already pre-ordered this AcuSense DS-7716NXI - is it ok? I'm looking for something high-end that's why I picked this NVR, do you recommend something or suggest? Thanks
Good morning Jarrah, how many cameras and what resolution cameras are you intending on using? That NVR is good, is it the iDS- model or just the DS-?
@@HikVisionGuru I'm getting the 16 slots, but I will be using 4 or 5 , but I'm whiling for 16 so maybe I add more in the future, and it will be probably 1920x1080 with 8MP still a good resolution yes? Not sure if more MP will be better visibility for long time use, I used 2MP before and after a year it became blurry. And which is better ids or ds? I googled it but couldn't understand my needs
Need some help how to set up pattern the installers say they cannot help me
Can you showe how to change setting back to colour . Don't know why it changed
Hi Linda, do you mean a colourvu camera back to colour or?
I have a Hikvision 16 channel NVR. Yesterday it started beeping 3 long beeps and 2 short beeps. I rarely log in directly to the NVR. Usually through web browser. When I logged in directly, I see that the menu is now NVR 4.0 and a totally different look. Used to look like the menu that you show in video. right-click with the mouse no longer brings up the menu. Also, now cameras are now some cameras not being picked up. Seems that somehow, motion detection has been turned on on all cameras with entire view blocked out for motion and some IP configurations for the cameras have changed requiring reprogramming. Does Hikvision automatically change the NVR menu? Very annoying.
Could be the hard drive is full reason for annoying beeping,I had this, HD is not wiping and resetting,check on HDD menu see if it's full if so re initianished reset.
Hi, I sent you an email hoping you would look over and comment upon my planned install. I'm impressed by your obvious skills, and would like to avoid silly mistakes.My reason for commenting here is to reassure you that I'm genuine.
Regards. Michael
can u change user permissions?
Hello! Yes you certainly can, you can do this under user management, adding users, and setting permissions.
Hi There, I just set-up a new HikVision NVR with the ColorVu cameras and have been trying to turn off the supplemental led lights on the cameras. For some reason all the help videos I have watched show accessing the PTZ Features. I see the joystick in almost every video I have watched but with my system it is there but not clickable. Any idea what I might be missing?
Hi Brenton, is your system IP or analogue?
@@HikVisionGuru it is IP
@@brentonrose1053 if you want to follow one of our videos on how to adjust ColourVu brightness/enable/disable.
ruclips.net/video/uJ-gFIgXnKk/видео.html
Simply you need to login to the cameras web interface via virtual host if the camera is connected directly to the NVR. Then go to image/display settings, day/night settings, and then set it to just day.
@@HikVisionGuru thank you I will investigate tonight
@@HikVisionGuru Yes thank you this did work I realized I needed to set the IP Camera default password to get into those but I am in and they are now disabled. Follow-up question in the web interface my live view is black but on the app and the NVR I see active camera viewing. Any thoughts why that is?
Hi! I'm trying to find out how to disable the orange thingy in the top right corner of the screen. I can't seem to get the answer to it.
Hey! Are you referring to the red square that is in each corner of each camera? If so that’s a recording status symbol meaning that camera is recording. If it’s something else you’re referring to, please send me a picture @ hikguru.yt@gmail.com
You have idea how to connect ananlog camera to NVR
You can connect analogue cameras to a DVR, not NVR. Does this help?
Hi, my HDD has stopped recording. Would I have to change the hard drive for it to start recording again or is there any other solution? I have tried a few things and it starts recording again but as soon as I turn the tv off it stops
It’s your recorder making a beeping sound at all? Was it working ok before? It could be a few things, either the recording schedule is not set, maybe off or set on motion schedule? Or your hard drive is faulty. If you go to the storage page on the recorder you should see your hard drive listed, if it’s not listed it’s not recognising any hard drives. Let me know if this helps or you need more information
How do i configure from my laptop? I have a laptop
Hi Callum, is your NVR/dvr connected to the internet, if so, do you know the nvrs ipv4 address? If not, you can download HikVision’s SADP software and that will be able to tell you. You then want to type in the ipv4 address into internet explorer and from there you can login and start configuring.
