roger phellps 0 Posted September 26, 2013 I'm not too familiar with these DVR's. What kind of motherboard is used in this unit? What I do with other DVR's is I pull the CMOS battery out for 30 seconds or so, then reinstall it. By doing that it will reset any passwords that have been set up. Just to advise you, before you pull the battery out be sure you have unplugged the DVR from the wall and that you have no power running through the DVR, and that the DVR has completely powered down. If your not sure what the CMOS battery is, most of them look anything like a nickel of even a quarter. It should be located directly on the motherboard. let me know if you have any questions, or if this helped out! Thanks, Roger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Securame 0 Posted September 27, 2013 That is a Hikvision DVR. You will have to contact your supplier, and probably send the unit back for servicing (maybe not, if you still have a working non-admin working account). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anishjain 0 Posted October 24, 2013 Check on the above link, I think you will get the proper solution. Their is an option for hard reset on the Hikvision DVR but i don't know in detail about it, never faced these kinds of problems during any installations.

uaichina 0 Posted November 14, 2013 Usually, there is one default username and password with every DVR. You can try, username admin, password: 888888 That's most of DVR factories default setup. UAICHINA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
