Hello. I’ll start with the noob apology upfront. I tried doing quite a few keyword searches and still haven’t made much forward movement, so I apologize for what I’m asking.
I have a Dahua system I’m struggling with.
2 PTZ1A225U-IRA-N cameras with a NVR5208-8P-4KS2 NVR.
I stared this install last year. But had to leave the country for work. I’m back at it now and wanted to add 3 SD1A203T-GN 2MP. When I left it a year ago I put in an 8TB in the nvr and I learned the CAT6 cable lesson.
I plan to replace the CAT6 I bought on amazon with what I got on monoprice.
The main purpose of this system is for me to monitor remotley as I work overseas and want eyes on the property.
With that, I have 2 Questions
1) Should I swap to Blueiris? I really don’t know the pros cons. But if ease of install and remote acres is one I’d like to do that.
2). Is there a place that shows a step by step (hopefully with pictures) of an install? (Not the physical cameras, but the networking part once the cables are run, tested and plugged in) I have tried but can’t find it and at this point I can’t even find a good place to start. Im wondering if the hard drive would be full at this point or maybe some other issue I might have after leaving it running unmonitored a year or so.
Again, thanks for the noob assist. All responses appreciated.
