Cameras Not Found By NVR

Post by Cutch41 »

So I purchased an Amcrest 4108E-A2 NVR to replace an older no name NVR that was glitching. When setting up the new NVR and searching for cameras, none of my 4 cameras are detected? The 4k POE cameras are not Amcrest but I was told the Amcrest NVR would be compatible. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks.

The camera doesn't seem to have a brand name on it but it has this model number and other information on it.
8MP IP POE Turret Camera
Model: CA-Y-608TCA-2MM
Lens 2.8mm Two Way Audio
S/N 202301130029

The old NVR had this information on it:
Model No. NVR-US-8M4C
4K 4CH HD POE NVR
U202301130525
SATA:1PCS System:NTSC
OneNid Inc

I hope this helps. Everything is on the same network and I believe they are ONVIF cameras.

Thanks

That is better.. Happy New Year..

So I don't know the Hardware and I can't say that the devices are open or a closed system.. Some devices even though they work with some 3rd party cameras the cameras for there own brand are brand only.. So a couple of things.. One if the cameras are open with WebUI.. I would go into the WebUI and see if the camera offers things like ONVIF support. Some you have to turn on. Some not only turn on but have to add a ONVIF user.. So it might be an issue like that..
