Thnx :)
Well i already made a BI user
But initially M$ wanted it to be a "Real account" w. e-mail & all.
I fiddled a little , and "somehow" got it to make a "local user".
Gave it a UID/PWD , and then changed the role to administrator.
Entered the UID/PWD in the BI "Run as a service" popup...
@bp2008
Thanx for the help button hint ... And the helpfile is actually quite good :)
I'd like to run BI as a service .....
Should i use my "login admin user" , or create a separate BI Admin user ?
I'd prob. prefer a separate BI Admin user if it doesn't FSCK the system up ....
I haven't used...
Warning... "Rysty windows user ahead" ... I'we been using linux for the last 12 years at home.
I just installed BI on a Dell Optiplex 5070 - i5-9500 / 32G Ram / 512G SSD (system) / 12TB WD 121PUR (video) - OS Win11 Pro
I have installed BI on the C:\ (SSD System drive) , and have formatted...
I got my BI PC two days ago + the two WD 121PURP today (they're climaztizing now)
So far i have Win updated the W11 , and updated the fw on the 500G Kingston SSD.
And i just bought a BI license via the store here (thnx) ...
For now i expect to have 4..6 cameras.
Right now cheap Chinese - But...
I'm using pfSense too.
I have 2 x "Chinese Qotom i5 - w. Quad Intel 211 NIC's" , home & summerhouse.
And have 8 "Chinese Qotom i3 - w. Hexa Intel 211 NIC's" at work.
I was a "happy" user up until a few month ago, when they decided to go back on their promise: That pfSense+ would be free for...
Arrghhh ... I did it again :banghead:
Someone on "Local Craigslist" still had 2 x WD121PURP for $410 - Still in "Foil" , from 2021
I had to .....
And my used BI machine, should be shipped today
Dell Optiplex 5070
CPU Intel core i5 9500
Ram 32 Gb DDR4
SSD 500 NVME Kingston
Windows 11 Pro...
@Swampledge .. Thanx for the info
I found a Dell 5070 w an i5-9500 & 32GB Ram & 500GB SSD for $255
Not that bad ... Seems to have room for a 3.5" too
Same TDP (65W) as the i5-6700
Well ... After some consideration (And Andy writing that the Dahua might not like my cams)
I think i might give...
Unfortunately that's not the prices in EU-Land ....
I can get a
HP, ProDesk 600, I5-8500 Ghz, 16 GB ram - US$ 290 - Sems like a 3.5" would fit into it
Dell Optiplex 3060, I5-8500 Ghz, 16 GB ram - US$ 270 - Sems like a 3.5" would fit into it
So it's not the annual cost of BI that should prevent me ... Agreed.
Well the i7-6700 that is mentioned in @Sybertiger's sig. , has a TDP of 65W, then you have to add Ram + Mobo usage.
Here's a snip from the 5216-EI DS - "Less than" 10W (excl hdd) - That's going to be hard to beat even...
Maybe you'd need something like 4k7 pullup or down on either row or col lines.
Have you tried to measure if any of row or col are already pulled up in the MCU (prob 3v3) or down (gnd) ?
For now i'd like a dedicated "ASIC" low power H.265 recorder ...
Electricity costs serious $$$ in EU ... Like > 0.5 US$/kWH
So i'm not interested in an Old ineffective i7, that would eat up the price difference in a year or so.
But just for the record is there any yearly license cost/fee on BI...
Any tips on a "Shop" EU/Ali/Ebay where i can get a fully working NVR5216-EI ... AKA not a "Fake Clone"
As already mentioned i have PoE in my switches , and am not interested in having that in the NVR.
The cameras are located in my summerhouse, and i'd just like to record/document people...
Thanx for that
I don't think my Cam's have AI.
But they seem to be able to detect a human or motion.
Attached the "Interresting cam config pages" (Cam webpage)
Most of that stuff doesn't "ring a bell" to me yet ...
Then again, i'm not even sure if i "need" AI ....
But i'd prob. get an AI NVR...
Hello Forum - Camera/NVR newbie here.
I'm working w. enterprise nwtworks on a daily base, so the PoE/IP setup doesn't scare me :)
But things like Focus .. Alarms , Fences etc ... Is almost totally new to me.
I need advice on getting a NVR that's NOT needing any P2P or Cloud to operate remotely...
