    Glad you’re sorted, hopefully connecting the chime will be a little easier

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    When I get home I’ll have a look with SADP / iVMS and screenshot some settings

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    Are you using iOS or Android app, check your app is set up for allowing notifications. I’m on iOS Settings - Apps - Hik-Connect - Notifications

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    I’ll check my settings when I get home, but it won’t be until late tonight. Have you tried removing the .wav ringtone just in case that’s causing a conflict

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    No, only if you want a chime as well, it should notify the Hik-connect app with or without changing the output. Are you connected to your NVR via a PoE switch ? I’m not at home atm but just checked on my Hik-connect app, have you got Report Events enabled ?

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    I must admit I’ve not tried to upload a ringtone (.wav file) to my device, and I’m not sure if this can be done when using the unit as a standalone device or it can only be achieved when used with the indoor station / screen.

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    Mine is connected via a PoE switch and it just worked, the bell push notified the app and i set up a detection zone on iVMS / SADP which alerts when someone is approaching the door. Changed the output settings to “doorbell” and connected to a Byron 776 chime and everything works as it should...

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    Apparently a lot of chimes won’t work with the Hikvision bell pushes, I did a lot of research and I ended up getting a Byron 776 chime, it has a built in transformer so mains supply up to the chime. Then, after changing the output settings on my DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) I connected the N/O and Common...

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    I used the the predecessor of the one that you are looking at, DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) it’s a 2MP camera. It’s connected to my DVR with Cat6 cable via a PoE switch. Reason being I wanted to run an internal chime off it as well as notifications via Hik-Connect and this particular model has an option...

    Door Bell camera without subscription

    I’ve just ditched my Ring Doorbell, as well as the £50 / year subscription, with them being WiFi, the signal can be blocked. I already had Hikvision CCTV system installed so I’ve added a Hikvision Video Doorbell to the DVR, it does all that the Ring Doorbell did plus it records onto the HDD 24/7...

    Replace Ring Doorbell with Hikvision

    I used a Netgear GS305P switch, it needs to be a POE model, I’m pretty certain that the DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) needs to be connected to a NVR via a POE switch, but by all means check it out. The DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) has a 2mp camera, there is a new model out with a 4mp camera

    Replace Ring Doorbell with Hikvision

    Before I finally installed it, I had it setup in the loft (that’s where my DVR is located) for several months and monitored it via Hik-Connect, IVMS-4200 and SADP, no problems at all. Recorded 24/7, detected movement whenever I went up there, no reboot of DVR so I removed my Ring Doorbell and...

    Replace Ring Doorbell with Hikvision

    Yes, I’m up and running with my Hikvision iDS-7204HUHI-M1/FA/A DVR and Hikvision DS-KV6113-WPE1(C). I connected the video doorbell with Cat6 lead to a POE Switch (My understanding is you would need to do this with a NVR as well and not plugged directly into the machine). I also used the...

    Hikvision doorbell camera

    Fingers crossed, the Ethernet cable, as well as communicating between the NVR and Doorbell it will supply the power to the DS-KV6113. I altered the firmware (model (C) only) in the I/O settings to output 1 to “mechanical chime” in the latest firmware version it’s “Doorbell” then connected the N...
