Ya I've realized that now. Just looking for some sort of solution now to make it work. And to think the only real reason I bought it was because it was on sale from our supplier for 60% off the retail. Should have stuck with the original plan of putting a few 3MP cameras in the warehouse area.

Hello, I have a Hikvision NVR and have set it up for remote viewing via the android and apple apps. I have set these up a few times before (some for clients and some for friends). Basically the NVR is connected to the Bell Fibe Hub/Router and it can be viewed from a wired connection on PC from within the network, on a android or apple device from the app via an outside connection WIFI or cellular data, but for some strange reason it won't allow me to connect via WIFI on the same network as the NVR. It comes up and says connection error. Anyone know what would cause this? I am thinking the Bell Fibe hub/router is likely the culprit, but don't know what setting would prevent the internal connection to the NVR from WIFI. Thoughts?

anyone have any insight? I am thinking it might be possible to connect it to a small pc or android box and possibly have it record to the NVR HDD. Thoughts? I can get the quad views in internet explorer, but can't seem to see the quad views in the hikvision NVR interface. I'm thinking there must be separate streams for each of the 4 quad views, but can't figure out how to show them. I am thinking there must be a separate ip address or variation with a different port number? Geovision support was useless by the way, already tried them.

Hello, I have setup several cameras on the perimeter of a building for a client. We have used the following cameras: Northern TVITIR100 (http://tri-ed.com/pdf/NTH-TVITIR100.pdf). They all give fairly good images right out of the box without adjusting much of any settings, however we wanted to be able to capture license plate numbers clear enough to identify the plate number. The main reason is that people are dumping garbage on the property and are doing so by driving to the back of the building and unloading large items and driving away. All the cameras are set to record only on motion via the DVR (Hikvision DS-7308-HQHI-SH). The plate numbers at full frame rate and resolution were not readable when played back from the DVR. I researched after and read that the shutter speed can be adjusted and the image sharpened in the settings over the UTC menu. I tried this and got it to be able to capture a legible plate number (can't recall all the settings we changed as we had to try it several times with different settings applied). We adjusted a few of the cameras that face the driveway around the building and figured everything should be good. We went back a few weeks later and reviewed some video footage that was recorded and found that all the cameras we adjusted when they would record at night recorded almost completely black images. Previous video we reviewed when we first installed the cameras was fine for recording at night and very clear with the IR. Not sure what's going on. We reset all the camera settings back to the factory default via the UTC and everything is back to normal, except we can't read plate numbers anymore. Could simply adjusting the shutter speed make the camera too dark at night?

We'll I got as far as getting it to show the live view in fisheye view and it records. Now just need to be able to see the quad view with ptz functions. Anyone ?

Hello all, New to fish-eye cameras. Basically looking to get a POE Geovision Fish-eye Camera (model GV-FER12203) setup on a HIkvision NVR (model DS-7616NI-E2/16P-2TB). The camera says it is onvif compliant and so does the NVR, but I can't get it to connect and show the image on the NVR. Anyone have experience setting up a different manufacturers poe camera on a Hikavision NVR? Thanks in advance
