![]() Now that you are confident that your camera is successfully reset, put it all back together, and the jobs done. First connect to it using the camera web interface http:\\192.168.1.8, login with admin:admin, and the first thing you should do (on all your camera's) is create a new user with admin privalages, just incase you forget the admin password or have issues with it in the future. However, I would recomend that you dont yet put the camera back together. Thats the hard reset done, everything has now gone back to default. And once powered up, press and hold down the reset switch for 10 seconds.ĥ. Now plug in the camera so that it has power. Look at where the microphone wires conect to the circuit board and you will see a black reset switch next the mic contacts.Ĥ. Once the base is removed, you can then take out the ball, and again you will find 3 screws that hold the ball together, remove those screws and open the ball.ģ. Remove the 4 screws that hold the 'ball' (main body of camera) into the base, you can locate these screws by turning the camera upside down, and turning the base (screwing action) until you see each screw individually.Ģ. Sounds drastic, but with the right size screw drivers it is in fact very simple.ġ. In any case the advise that I received from my (very helpful) Chinese seller, from his contact at Dahua, was that it was impossible to reset the password without opening up the camera. ![]() I cant get support from anyone, Dahua simply don't reply to e-mails.įirstly, I believe my problem occurred because I changed my password from the original admin password to something rather too complex, and perhaps some of the character I used conflicted with the character set recognised by the software / firmware. And ofcourse each time I enter a wrong password 3 times it locks the account and I have to wait 30 minutes.Īny idea how I can get this particular camera back to factory reset? I read somewhere that there is a daily password generator, however I've tried the formula posted by a few people 8888 x the day x the month x last 2 digits of the year, resulting last 6 digits is your password.) and it also didn't work. 4 of the camera's still work on admin / admin, but one of the camera's simply will not login with admin / admin. Unfortunately the change didnt seem to take effect for some reason on any camera. I recently purchased 5 Dahua IPC-HDW4300C cameras, and thought it was good practice to change the admin account password from 'admin' to something else on each of the camera's.
