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...

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...

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

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...

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...

Did you manage to get it working ?

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...

I’ve got an iDS-7204HUHI-M1/FA/A DVR with 4 cameras connected, I’ve connected a DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) doorbell, connected to the DVR via a POE Switch which works perfectly. I’ve not got a NVR but seem to recall reading that it needs to be connected via a POE switch rather than plugged directly...

It really depends on how the system was designed. The problem with turning your boiler temperature down is the radiator sizes (if done correctly) would have been calculated by doing heat loss calculations for each room then sized accordingly, years ago this would have been based on a boiler...

Yes, it already has a sleeve fitted use a copper olive, do not use any paste

I wanted to do some alterations at my daughters house which involved moving a couple of PIR’s, her system was over 10 years old, I contacted the alarm company who said for security reasons (all the alarms on the estate had the same engineers code) they couldn’t tell me what it was. But they...

Generally the panel battery isn’t supplied with the panel, the battery should be sized according to the number of powered detectors etc. typically would be anything in the range of 1.2 - 7.0 Ah.

As Terry says, make sure you you use a pipe insert, some valves have “pushfit” a connection, if using compression type then it’s recommended to use a copper olive and definitely no jointing compound on plastic pipes.

I always have a box of Dyrline Pro fixings handy, been using them for years now, never let me down

Have you tried the default engineer code, just in case he hasn’t changed it, highly unlikely but worth a try.
