Hello... From the States across the pond! Someone informed me that my DS-2CD2042WD-1 cameras, presently with V5.5.53 Build 180730 may have a security issue.... and suggested I go to V5,5,8 or later firmware... I did find V5.5.82 Build 180427 on the HiKvision USA Site.... It appears to be for...

Well. Seeing that I came here after finding out that HikVision USA would not give ANY support whatsoever.... the loss of ‘Support’ from the factory has NOT been an issue in any way!! (And if fact an Education)! I thank the folks at this forum for the direction you’ve given me. 12x...

I mistook that column for a day date, not an hour.... but since posting, I found it out by testing.... so yes, I have fixed it.....

So that's the DST setting in this camera... I have not found a way of not adding the day number... That means I have to edit each year, right, or am I missing something basic?

I have 12 identical cameras motion detecting pictures to a Synology DS-718+ NAS.... I'm Presently Using NTP service within Synology NAS for time source for the 12 security cameras... NTP in NAS does an offset from GMT only... So at present, NTP is done at NAS Level, and DST is done at each...

LUCKY ME!!! It appears to have been corrupted firmware!!! I downloaded the latest version (5.5.8.2) and loaded that... Now it's working correctly!!! Lucky Me --- Lucky Seller!!! Multiple power cycles, config exams, and waving hands in front of new camera.... It's solid now.... Everything is...

Bought a new DS-2CD2042WD-I.... My 12th.... First time I've encountered this.... SADPTool found it, Activated it.... In settings.... everything works except one area: FTP login and Password entered, correctly, but after saved and tested: it either fails, or it cannot find Test Server.... So...

Here in the Smokey Mountains of Western NC, Humidity is a big issue.... At all times of the year.... This year no different, I believe we are 12" over normal for the year..... We've had a couple of 4" Rains this year, and we are Hundreds of miles from the coast.... I now have 4x cameras outside...

I was hoping it might be in menus. Thanks

Hello from across the pond in the Smokey Mountains of western NC.... !!!! Question about a DS-2CD2042WD-1 cameras...., and all have been upgraded to V5.53 build 180730 A question that I'm hoping you can find an answer to.... Once a camera is mounted... Via the admin login to get to...

Ok. Re-adjusted Porch Camera mot detect, and sprayed for spiders on all. 2 neighbors have confirmed its the same “Teenager” who has visited their porches. He walked entire porch, and on left side got up on railing to examine hummingbird feeder, but lost interest. We had bird feeders in house.

You said videos....

Ask and you shall receive! Unfortunately Porch cam sensitivity not set right, but Pond and Driveway picked it up!!!

About a Month ago, we had a Bear walk back and forth across the porch on front of our house!! (Hello Again from Across the pond—Western NC, a few 1000 feet from Smokey Mountain Natl Park!!) We have camera facing pond from porch, and Garage facing house, but Mr Bear avoided both! Wife made...

Not quite on the cheap, but spread out enough that it hasn't been a financial issue! I started out with cheapie SD cameras and NAS. ftp was fine. NAS just happened to be Sysnology, and someone pointed out their Surveillance Station software to me. 2 free licenses.... I stuck with 2 they...

Oh!! Well then!! That settles that!!! Thanks for the confirmation!! The only bug I ever found in 5.5.53 is that the default live display does not load correct aspect ratio (16x9), you have to manually select it... Thanks again....

From release notes of what’s been addressed in this update..... Since my camera doesn’t have an SD Card, nor does it connect to Hik-Connect, nor do I have an NVR, and in fact is denied from internet by my router, this firmware may not be as needed as prior one was—which fixed the ‘back door’...

Thanks so much! This site does so much for end users!

When I get a new used camera, I immediately load ne firmware into it. All except the last couple cameras have been earlier than V5.5.53 build 180730... This is the most current firmware I have found in the USA. Now with that said, the last 2 used cameras I have purchased used, has had a later...
