MaxIcon 0 Posted August 27, 2013 Hik has released a new version of the Raptor firmware, 5.0.2, build 130805.

buellwinkle 0 Posted August 27, 2013 Are you going to try it on your Derytech camera? I would be concerned with installing a version from Europe. If you want, I can get you the latest Hikvison US firmware or Derytech firmware. Hate to see you brick your camera. PM me if interested. I checked, it's not available in the U.S. yet.

buellwinkle 0 Posted August 27, 2013 They have two sites then because I was given a different site to get firmware from directly from their support people. Now we have to convince Maxicon to try it on his camera first, LOL. BTW, doesn't it concern you that the file sizes are totally different, like 18mb vs 12MB between HikvisionEurope and HikvisionUSA?

zikronix 0 Posted August 27, 2013 They have two sites then because I was given a different site to get firmware from directly from their support people. I feel like they go out of their way to make things obsure. Selling products to people like swann and lorex that you cant buy (dvr with 16 poe ports) their US site doesnt have half the firmware for their NVR. Their us site doesnt list all the NVR available example http://www.hikvision.com/en/us/products.asp?cid=50271#Menu=ChildMenu5 vs http://www.hikvision.com/en/Products_show.asp?id=6528#Menu=ChildMenu5 I know this how this all works because it happens in IT all the time, but its just so odd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ill try it on a swann when I get home...but sure it concerns me but im sure its just langauge differences. Put it in an hex editor and look at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zikronix 0 Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) Did the upgrade to V5.02_130805 from the usa ftp Camera did not die and now reports V5.0.2 130805 in firmware. I did not see any menu changes or additional options...which is to be expected. Edited August 28, 2013 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ctbaker 0 Posted August 28, 2013 I have been getting the firmware from Nelly's Technical Guide website. While I can connect to the Hikvision USA FTP website, I have no idea what the username/password is. Can I get a PM with that info? My camera and NVR are in the mail but I'd like to have all the firmware pre-downloaded to update the hardware. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
