HIKVISION TFTP TEST TFTPSERVER UPDATE
It will be interesting to see if there is an update that WILL allow it. It seems 3.3.4 is NOT to be loaded on the NVR as it bricks it straight up. So, big thanks to those on this forum for the tools, posts and utilities (and knowledge). but anyway!)įired up the Bricked NVR plugged into my old laptop (IP:192.0.0.128) fired up TFTP server program (with the modded digicap.dav firmware). Then i ran HIKTOOLS over it and changed the language to 2 (Seller obviously failed to mention is was a chinese machine. SO I dragged out an older windows 7 machine with firewall disabled and it connected.ĭownloaded the 3.3.1 MultiLanguage from the HIK Europe site ( Firmware/Recorder/7600NI-E1-A All-in-one NVR/)
HIKVISION TFTP TEST TFTPSERVER WINDOWS 10
Still would not connect with my windows 10 machine. Thanks to zimurgy for posting the HIK TFTP server program.

I am hopeful this will get me my proof of concept so I can then order the rest of my cameras and start pulling wire. Since the camera will have the same IP as the NVR I will use a PoE injector to boot the camera and then use the straight cable to the laptop so I can web into it and change the IP and the set the password to a complex password being going PoE into the NVR. I was too burned out to even try connecting a camera, which will be the project this evening. My plan was to boot it, and walk away and let it sit for a while as I read on another forum that even after that AV2000 error the TFTP will try again and sometimes the second go is the winner, I was never being patient enough to allow that to happen. So eventually I simply started the TFTP, chose the Option menu and clicked on the folder the firmware was located in, which was the default, but I did it anyway, then I fired up the NVR and it worked on the last try I was willing to do. I used a straight cable from the NVR to my laptop, which to make things way more challenging was running OS X 10.11 with a Windows 8.1 VM using VirtualBox. I am thinking maybe they are using some sort of geo-filter if you can't connect. I used the standard host and the hikfirmware and Hikvision123. I was really happy that I also found the exact firmware in that FTP under the Latest folder so I at least knew it was going to have a firmware I was confident belonged on my NVR. This was my first time using a Hikvision product, and I guess bricking your device is a right of passage.

I guess you could say I was not going out without a fight on this one.
