Hi all,
I'm a relatively new Hikvision user, running 3 x DS-2CD2155FWD domes and a DS-7604NI-K1 NVR. Install and setup was extremely straightforward and I have the thing happily recording, generating events and pushing notifications to my phone. I'm running the latest firmware on all devices.
The only challenge I am having is with event detection tuning. I've tried a mix of basic motion detection, smart intrusion detection and line crossing detection but I find that it's either super sensitive (trigger by cats, reflections in car windows or condensation from my boiler flue) or completely ineffective, not even responding to cars driving into the detection zones. This became very apparent this week when we had an intruder which did not trigger an event, even though they clearly entered the detection zone, because I had tuned down the detection to reduce false alarms and it missed a real event.
I'd be very interested to hear other people's recommendations or experience in how they set their own system up and what success rates they have had as a result. I'm especially interested in any tips that might improve my own use of the system.
Thanks,
Daern
