There are a lot of videos on YouTube to guide you through the process.
The hik-connect app is actually more user friendly than the IVMS.

If it is not online, delete the device and re-register. Or you can disable, reboot and enable the hik-connect service from your NVR.
Also, check appstore.hikvision.com for the latest version of the app for your phone.
I have the same set up at my house and I've done similar installs for clients ( i.e. Digicel fiber at the home or office and the client uses bmobile data on their phones)Amit wrote:Cooper wrote:Use the credentials you created for the hik-connect service to log on to the hik-connect website to verify if your device is online.

I’m able to view the camera once on the same network using Hik-Connect app , from the time I switch to bmobile date I can’t access the camera system.
I think digicel router is blocking me
Good IP cameras have far better features than analog cameras. A good IP camera will have a lot more flexibility with image settings.SNIPER 3000 wrote:Also is it worth it to go with a 5mp IP instead of 5mp ananolog? Price wise it's a big difference.

Two very important features to look for is Exposure Time (similar to the shutter speed) and Wide Dynamic Range.
Exposure Time comes in handy when capturing video of moving objects. For example if it's a car speeding past the camera and you need the license plate, it may appear blurry and unreadable when the video is paused with a slow exposure as opposed to a faster exposure rate that will give a clearer picture.
Wide Dynamic Range is basically a mode that auto adjusts the image to remove glare and dark areas. For example, if the camera is inside a building and is pointed at a doorway to the outside where it's brighter. Individuals entering that door would look like a silhouette. Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) will compensate for this and give a clearer picture so you can see facial features.
Good IP cameras are essentially a DVR and camera in one unit. Some have SD card slots for storage and web servers built-in. So it depends on how you're gonna use it.SNIPER 3000 wrote:Cooper wrote:Good IP cameras have far better features than analog cameras.

Thanks for the reply. Do I need a static ip address for ip cameras? Was told I do and will have to pay the internet provider for each address?
