    Hi Phil thanks for your reply. I have looked at it with a fresh mind today and realised that the cable going from the DVR to the extended was actually plugged into one of the 4 camera inputs! I had left it there by mistake after testing the camera before installation. I feel like a wally!

    How-to: How do I update HikVision Firmware in just nine simple steps? - updated 17th November 2023

    I don’t have an NVR but will be purchasing soon. Maybe a silly question but does a NVR have more than one USB port? If not, then how do you navigate the menus if the firmware usb is plugged in instead of the Mouse? Thsnks James
