ANPR not saving images to NVR

Hi All,

This is my first time on this forum as I have recently had Hikvision cctv installed and currently have the following issue which I hope someone on here can advise before I go back to the installer which could be after the Christmas break.

I have a NVR model DS-7604NI-K1 / 4P(B) - firmware V4.30.010 build 200715 which I believe is the latest version.

I have one bullet camera model DS-2CD2685G0-IZS - firmware V5.6.2 build 190701 connected to the NVR

I also have an ANPR camera connected to the other side model DS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZS - firmware V5.6.10 build 200703

The ANPR is correctly configured and working and is capturing the number plate registrations as it is listed when I go to the camera web browser and click on the Configuration --> Road Traffic --> Real-time LPR Result and the max. 20 records are listed.

My issue is that the NVR is the saving the number plate images to the NVR as if I go to Picture --> Search then it says no pictures found.

I have been reading on this forum and looking at Youtube videos, and what I have noticed is that if I log on to the NVR web browser and go to the Configuration tab, and underneath there, I cannot see the sub heading "Vehicle Detection" which I'm assuming is where I configure the vehicle detection information similar to like I did directly on the ANPR web config.

The forum tutorials I have seen on here and the youtube show this option on the NVR.

Therefore, can someone please help as is this a firmware/software issue and/or are the above devices compatible with each other as this system was installed by ADT so I cant really see there would be any compatibility issue.

Thank you.
 
You’ve got a “k” series 7704NI-“K”.... I’m 99% sure the “I” series is the lowest spec for ANPR compatibility so 7708NI-“I”.... for example, it’s the model up from the “K” series.

Hi fin Thanks for your reply. So are you saying that the DS-7604NI-K1 / B) version I have is probably not compatible with the Anpr camera I have?

Are you recommending I get the DS-7708NI-I?

if the above is the case then I don’t understand why the installer did not know about this as they’re quite a well known and big company.

I have also emailed Hikvision Support so I will also see what they say.

Thank you.
 
Bump - I’ve had no official reply so far from Hikvision Support so just wandering anyone else on here can confirm that the issue is my NVR model.

Thanks
 
I am 99.9 sure I am correct and you need an “I” also I understand Hikvision support only responds to dealers not general public
 
Hi fin

Thanks for your reply again.

When you say the “I” model would

DS-7608NI-I2/8P work with my NVR.​


Thanks
 
Well that would replace the whole NVR the one you have listed there is an “I” series the ones that I understand work with ANPR

I had mine running on 7708NI-I4 which main difference is the 4 is how many HDD and more bandwidth, I upgraded that to a 7716NI-I4 as I wanted more cameras running 6x 8mp camera and intercom 6113 and two ANPR cameras all Hikvision

Hi fin

thanks for this. Which one would you recommend as when I return this one to the installed I’m going to ask for a 8 port model for future expansion as I’m now planning to get maybe three colorvu turret cameras which means I will be a port short on the NVR.

If you could give me the exact model number I need if the NVR for a 8 port NVR that will work with my ANPR then that will be most appreciated.

Thanks
 
7708NI-I4/8P I’d go for, others may recommended others as there are slightly later versions I believe but I only bought my 7716NI-I4 the other month so still very much for sale and I bought that based on how good the 7708NI-I4 I had was I just wanted more cameras it’s basically the same unit
 
Thanks fin. I will get back to the installer in the new year and see what they can do.
Thanks
 
Hi fin
Sorry to ask again but I think this model will also be ok for my needs as I only have one 3TB purple western digital hdd and also to keep costs down as this should also work with my Anpr.

DS-7608NI-I2/8P​


Thanks

Hi

Thanks for your information.

I am going to ask my installer to change my NVR to the above model as the one that I have captures the plate info but does not actually save the pics to the NVR.

The NVR I have (DS-7604NI-K1 / B) does not have the Vehicle Detection option under Configuration. This is where the problem is I think so now going to ask to change it to DS-7608NI-I2 / 8P.

Thanks
 
Hi All,

I've had the DS-7608NI-I2 / 8P and the extra cameras installed and configured yestrday.

The issue with the anpr not saving images/clips of reg plates is now solved so it was definately the DS-7604NI-K1 / B NVR not being compatible with the anpr camera.

Thank you all for the advice.
