Hikvision error code 302 shows on the iVMS-4200 software when you’re trying to view the cameras on the live view mode. Sometimes the cameras are working fine and suddenly they’ll go offline and show error code 302 (camera is disabled or not connected).
While you can’t see these cameras on the iVMS-4200 software, they’ll show up fine on the phone or on the web browser. So the issue is related to the iVMS-4200 only.

Update the firmware on the NVR where the cameras are hooked up. In most of the cases the error code 302 is solved by doing this step. It has been reported that many firmware versions contain a certain software bug that makes the cameras go offline on iVMS-4200.
