Chirist! Not being rude but if you are making mistakes like that and can’t work it out I’d suggest not touching electrics. You’re going to kill yourself!

take a photo of inside with your phone? use a small handheld mirror?

Well.... butter my ass and call me a biscuit! It's working! I found out that the doorbell Hik-Connect account binding was not working. The issue was: My NVR camera IPs are on a different subnet to that of my other LAN devices (192.168.254.x) I clanged my doorbell only IP to be a spare one on...

Thanks, appreciated. Whats strange is on the doorbell page i dont have any option for the button itself (see tabs across the top in image below). To get the motion detection reporting working i went into this tab and selected the Hik-Connect as an output. One would have thought there should be...

Yep checked this too, all enabled. It appears the call is not even getting to the Hik-Connect software, all alerts for motion work ok, so im thinking its something in the doorbell configuration itself.

Thanks for your help! Tried removing the ringtone, i cant, but when i disable the option it still does the same, no notification in the app.

I was originally connecting the doorbell direct to the NVR (which worked ok), but i have realised that in order to send alerts using the Hik-Connect service you need the doorbell connected to an internet connection as well. So now i have changed it so that both my internet and a channel from the...

So i have changed my output setting to 'Doorbell' but dont have a chime connected to it. Are you saying that you need to have an external chime fitted for it to trigger events (doorbell presses) to Hik-Connect?

This is what i want to emulate. How did you get alerts on Hik-Connect working? Oh, also I have the doorbell connected direct to the NVR (with the NVR providing PoE) and this works great. No need for a seperate PoE switch in between the two.

I ended up buying the DS-KV6114-WBE1 unit. Got it working to the NVR ok. Had to use HiTools to initilise the camera and set IP etc. Having an absolute nightmare trying to work out how to get the doorbell press to actually create an alert on Hik-Connect. Cant seem to find any relevant settings...

You’d be better fitting something like this that has a radiator section built in. Chatsworth Savoy Traditional Heated Towel Rail Radiator I fitted this exact one and it gets nice and toasty.

What Hikvision doorbell did you go for? I am looking at the new DS-KV6114-WBE1 4MP unit.

Thanks for the replies guys, really appreciated. I like the appearance of the DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) unit so will likely go for this. Surprised i cant plug it straight into the NVR as mine supports PoE and works great for the 6x cameras i have connected to it. What model of switch did you use to...

Did you ever get this working? I want to replace my eufy doorbell with a Hikvision DS-KV6113-WPE1(C) and integrate this into my NVR DS-7608NI-I2/8P. I wanted the doorbell to constantly record to the NVR and create alerts & 2-way audio video via the Hik Connect app when someone rings the...

Never fails to amaze me how many people think PAT applies to anything electrical. P = Portable, a microwave is not really classed as a portable device.

I have loads of LAP USB sockets in my house, been working fine for at least 10 years. For charging purposes they are far from obsolete.

I would treat all data you have on it as compromised and change passwords etc ASAP. On your new PC I would suggest using something like KeePass

Taken from my fuse box main ac i/p over the last year or so. Not sure what changed mid-Feb 25? Midlands, UK

Sounds BS to me; source? What / who defines the exact dates of 'during the winter'?

Cheers all for the intel
