hey all. i just got the hik vision DS-2CD802NF-E box camera with the SD card plug in to record directly to the card and hook up to my PC via LAN cable. looks like a great camera, but cant seem to get the camera and the pc to work as i keep getting a message that reads network or device busy, register failed, (connect server failed).
the pc recognized the camera when i program it and will self populate the server properties pop up screen. i realize this is a shot in the dark, but anyone know anything about these cameras or have anyone i can turn to for advice? all im trying to do, is hook this up in my car to view through a PC. it will be on a closed cicuit and i have no interest to hook it up to a network of any kind. i do want to "see" live video as it occurs and i need my PC for the monitor. the sd card will be the DVR.
