    G3 ColorVu Cameras - First Impressions/Review

    I'm afraid not anytime soon - Hikvision seems to have cut back on bringing 4mm mini bullets into UK stock as they've become less popular. There's still a good amount of stock of the 4mm 2xx7G2H cameras, so I suspect we'll see some 4mm G3 mini bullets start to arrive later in the year as the G2H...

    G3 ColorVu Cameras - First Impressions/Review

    Yes, here you go: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1fDo3avPBx__NwgRORjZPJGU5vhMImrrn?usp=sharing As mentioned, the settings will almost definitely need tweaking, and hopefully, we'll see improvements with firmware updates, but here are the default exposure and DNR settings used on the G3...

    G3 ColorVu Cameras - First Impressions/Review

    Ask, and you shall receive... :D We set up a 2387G2 (2.8mm), 2087G2H (4mm) and 2387G3 (2.8mm) to record outside of the office over the weekend as a quick test. Unfortunately, we didn't have a 2387G2H (2.8mm) here that we could use for the perfect comparison, but hopefully, the 4mm mini bullet...

    Can't add the second stream from the Tandemvu to my NVR?

    Thanks for sharing what you've learned @nimnim - I'm sorry to hear your NVR isn't compatible; this probably would have also caught us out. I'll speak to Hikvision for some clarification on the compatible models...

    Firmware M-Series Firmware v5.03 Released

    Nope, there is no need to add it as a video device now, you just add it as an Access Control device which will let you record video and set up motion detection. Correct, this will always be the case for intercom devices as they need to have their own connection to the network to work (via a POE...

    Firmware M-Series Firmware v5.03 Released

    Just an update to say that the intercom device compatibility has been fixed on V5.04.050 build 250124. You now need to add the doorbell as an Access Control Device rather than a Video Device and use the 'HIKVISION' protocol type, which should allow you to set motion detection and motion-based...

    No problem :)

    DS-KIS603-P(c)

    Thanks, unfortunately, that's just a regular network switch with no PoE capabilities, which is why it isn't powering either unit. You're not the first to make that mistake! You'll need an 802.3af PoE switch to power the doorbell and indoor screen, like one of the models on this page...

    Which should i believe the dataset or the specifications for nvr ds-7616nxi-k1 facial recognition mode capabilities?

    Hi @teamguitar - the DS-7616NXI-K1(D) supports up to 12MP cameras, which is shown under recording resolution in the datasheet: The section that you are looking at describes the face recognition capability that's built into the NVR which means that it can add face recognition to one 8MP...

    Hi @Kaneruddell, what model is your TP-Link switch, please? Is the switch plugged into a power supply / wall socket?

    Door Entry Door Station unit DS-KD8003 password reset issue?

    Hikvision Support may eventually respond to your reset request, but they tend to only deal with authorised suppliers. You could try one of the other email addresses on this page: https://www.hikvision.com/uk/about-us/contact-us/technical-support/ But, it is always best to send the reset file...

    Door Entry Door Station unit DS-KD8003 password reset issue?

    Are you trying to reset it via the physical reset button on the back of the unit and have you followed these steps to do so? If you send the XML file to your supplier, they should be able to send it to Hikvision Support to get the reset file quickly too.

    Hikvison intercom compatibility

    Hi @Srdjan - we can't say for sure as the DS-KH6220-LE1 was made EOL a few years ago, so we can't test it, but they should be compatible. In any case, I would recommend one of the below current models, which are the most affordable and still receiving firmware updates...

    Hikvision IP Camera offline - wrong IP address

    Well done for figuring it out :) In case it's handy in the future, this guide shows how you can see the connected cameras' passwords on your NVR before disconnecting them - it should save you from having to do any future password resets...
