Title: DNR-202L supported for DCS-8525LH?
Post by: GavinLeigh on June 19, 2018, 05:41:04 AM
So I was shocked to find out there isn't a web UI on this camera. I didn't see it on the product description when I was looking to purchase a new camera and was expecting the DCS-8525LH to be like my DCS-5030L to setup. Having gone through the smartphone setup I don't see any way to add it to my DNR-202L. Is this not possible?

Unfortunately, this camera isn't supported on the 202L:
ftp://ftp2.dlink.com/PRODUCTS/DNR-202L/REVA/DNR-202L_REVA_CAMERA_SUPPORT_LIST_v2.04.03.pdf (http://ftp://ftp2.dlink.com/PRODUCTS/DNR-202L/REVA/DNR-202L_REVA_CAMERA_SUPPORT_LIST_v2.04.03.pdf)

Perhaps you can try adding it using one of the preset models built in to the DNR using a web browser and adding the camera using the DNRs web page configuration.

The newer cameras (DCS-8xxxLH) are not compatible with NVRs.  I emailed the project manager to see if there are plans for NVR support.

Thank you for that fast responses. I guess that I thought that the new camera would still be backwards compatible. I'll have to rethink how I will have my setup now. Luckily there are still a lot of the older cameras around. I may have to stick with the older generations.

The 936L and 960L are working fine...
