tomcctv 190 Posted March 11, 2018 Hi. 888888 is the default password. Enter menu go to system then on left go into accounts and create a new user account with full admin . Then log out and then login with your new added account password (don't use 888888) Go back to system then accounts and delete the 888888 account Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For a 20 min job Long drive for a 20 minute job We have a small take away shop and use 4 cameras, i had it online but have it in the house because it resets itself and loses all the settings and i cant save the ftp settings thats why i bought the 16 four months ago. The 32 has always had this problem since i bought it. Nightmare think i will buy another one. Thanks for your help its much appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted March 12, 2018 Hi. If your a business then instead of the viper I would go for the Quattro 5 ..... Direct replacement to the one you have but with better remote viewing. Takeaway shop I would also pay the £35 and have a microphone installed for both recording and listening on you phone - tablet - PC Both the Quattro and the viper are well priced ...... If your your budget is around £400 then you can get a full 5mp IP Poe viper system NVR and cameras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iam just going to get a new dvr, the 2 1080p cameras are new the shop is just a small kitchen and front shop and a doorway i have 4 cameras and might add another 1. Good idea about the mic hadnt thought of that, also looking at dahua dvr's as they should have the same ftp backup as the qvis.

Hi Tom thinking about the viper system and cameras can you please pm me details of cameras and viper and price i should really look at the options first. Can that send pics and video to off site ftp server. Thanks again keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
