jim239 Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 Hi Everyone, Has anyone had any issues with notifications using Procontrol+ app? The events are being triggered and registered on the NVR but they are not being pushed to the mobile devices. Hikconnect is enabled and registered as online on the NVR but not showing registered for the cameras individually? I have updated the cameras and NVR firmware to the latest version and enabled/disabled the Hikconnect app and nothing seems to be working. Regards Jim Quote
MrHappy Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 normally when the phone apps stop working its the updating of the phone os which is the problem. the app provides no income & appear to be developed externally from the equipment manufacture so fixing issues is never a priority Quote Mr Veritas God
jim239 Posted January 17, 2021 Author Posted January 17, 2021 I did wonder if that was the case and they haven't caught up updating the app. I did also think it might be a change in ISP to Virgin media which seems to be around the same time notifications stopped working. I understand with Hikconnect as its a free app but Procontrol+ with an alarm panel is a paid for service so I would hope they would keep that working, it does for the alarm notifications but not the cameras. It would be nice if Hikvision and Pyronix were integrated better, rather than seemingly moving further apart in the last few years. Jim Quote

jim239 Posted January 17, 2021 Author Posted January 17, 2021 I don't have an android device to try unfortunately. I did just try disabling smart event and using just motion detection but still no luck. The Hikconnect registration on the cameras is confusing me, its still saying offline but I thought along as the NVR was online that would be ok Quote

sixwheeledbeast Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 Yep If you have just switched ISP that would be the logical start. Websafe has been a common source of complains for random apps and services not working, not sure about your device particularly tho. I wouldn't use any ISP provided router tat myself especially if I was hosting services but generally people aren't bothered if it works I suppose... iOS 14.3 was released mid December if that helps.

aissecur Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 If you nvr / dvr says off line then as the others have illuded to, it’s a likely an ISP issue can you send us a screen shot ? how was your system set up? Did the installer scan the qr code with the hik app or is it set up by DNS ? Did someone install the system for you or is it a DIY install by yourself ? Quote
