Hi all

If this has been discussed before, please point me to the thread, I did search but could not find a thread detailing my specific issue.

I added another camera to my home CCTv setup yesterday which consists of the following

1 x HIKVision DS-7616NI-K2/16P NVR
2 x HIKVision SE-DS-2CD2055FWD-I Cameras (4mm fixed length)
2 x HIKVision SE-DS-2CD2055FWD-I Cameras (2.8mm fixed length) (Only one installed at the moment)
1 x WD 4TB 3.5" SATA3 6.0Gbps Surveillance HDD - Purple
Linkbasic Shielded UV Protected Cat5e Cable

I added the 2.8mm SE-DS-2CD2055FWD-I this last Saturday after running all the CAT5E cabling from inside our roof to outside. The NVR picked the camera up easily but I do need to use SADP to change it's username and password from the standard. I have been able to add the camera to Live View on an iPad and three separate iPhones, but keep getting a "No more IP cameras allowed" error when trying to add it to the Live View of the output of the NVR. All the Googling I have done points to issues when adding camera's using a PoE switch or not directly connected to the NVR, but all my Camera's are directly connected to my NVR.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Thanks
Nic
 
I figured it out earlier, instead of adding the new camera to the Live View in the Configuration > Live View of the NVR I was trying to add it directly on the Live View, if that makes sense. Once I figured that out it was easy to add it to the Live View setup of both the VGA and HDMI output of the NVR.
