Highly recommend you stay away from powerline adapters for cameras. There is no way you could guarantee reliability. NVR would absolutely not pick any cameras up if you plugged the network side powerline adapter into one of the POE ports on the NVR. The only way to make this work, would be...

Unfortunately, it won't work when plugged directly into the NVR. If configured correctly, maybe it would work as a camera but obviously that's no good, so not even worth considering. Reason being (I think) that the device when plugged into the internal NIC of the NVR, it has no way to connect to...

That's brilliant. No problem. :)

I also believe you can activate the device using SADP tool. Could be wrong with this particular device but I have with other hik equipment.

You will not be able to access the web page with the door station being on the default IP range because your computer is not on that IP range. You need to select the device in the SADP tool and enable DHCP so your router assigns it an IP address within the range of your router's network. After...

@cheekymeer I *might* be able to help. I don't think you can PM on here - unless I'm missing something. If you can, PM me. Alternatively let me know how I can contact you.

This is an old article but might be helpful. Point To Point with Nano M5 (Tp-LocoM5) (securitycameraking.com)

I'm planning to do something very similar in a few days. I purchased 2X Ubiquiti NanoStation Loco 5AC - one to go at the camera end, one to go at the main network end. I have also purchased a POE switch to power the camera and nanostation. I believe you set the camera end to station mode and...

@Dan Is it still the case that the K-series NVRs do not fully support all AcuSense functions even when the NVR has been upgraded to the latest firmware? Thanks

Are you able to confirm that the process is the same for the K series NVRs? I recently updated my DS-7608NI-K2 / 8P to the latest V4 GUI and could not find any way of setting a custom layout - in fact, I had less layout options that the previous GUI gave me. To be specific, the latest...

I was wondering if anyone knew if there is still space in the newer design of body that is used by the acusense ISU-SL model IP cameras for the waterproof ethernet connector, without having to use a back box? I know with the 'traditional' hikvision "pig-nose" cameras there was plenty of space...

You can just find the latest firmware on the hikvision portal and navigate the the door station web page and upgrade.

@Cadjockeygm actually with the latest firmware, the DS-KV6113-WPE1 can be set up without the indoor station.

Well it will work stand alone however I would recommend using the indoor station as your chime. With it being wifi, the indoor station is quite easy to set up. Although I understand it isn't quite as simple as ring's chime. Other than this, I'm not really aware of any, good or reliable...

Hikvision DS-KIS603-P video intercom villa door station kit is what you're looking for. Works very very well. Records to my NVR. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks @Kyle Are you able to tell me the difference between the camera above and this camera: DS-2DE4425IW-DE(D)

Hi, would anyone be able to recommend a 4MP IP PTZ with Strobe, Audio Alarm and Auto Tracking? I'm finding it challenging with all the different models available. Does Acusense imply a camera would have these features (strobe, audio)? I was looking at this camera DS-2DE4425IW-DE(S5) I...

That's great! Glad I was able to help. Yes, I'm hoping they release a more reliable V4 with some of the same features from V3 mainly concerning live view from HDMI out.

I know in theory a system reset should do more than a restore however, as a last resort, I really think it's worth doing the restore as well. Just to rule it out. Also, when I was on the phone with Hik support, they literally said the solution is to restore the NVR, not reset. I could be totally...

Assuming all of the basics are in order (eg DNS), try restoring. System => Maintenance => Restore
