Anychance of a screen shot of your time task settings and any...

    Newbie here - Recommendations for good PTZ camera

    I know what you mean as I install both manufactures. I personally prefer the metal housing and build of Dahua but the camera firmware and NVR software of the Hiks gives a more solid and polished user experience. Regarding image quality in the past I would of agreed that Dahua had the upper hand...

    I believe so, as indictated by jmcu a while back but what is being done to rectify the idle bug?

    Check out Hikvisions offerings. Dahua firmware is lacklustre and buggy. Make the PTZ you choose are not restricted being able to do the tasks you have in mind by firmware issues.

    Factory Reset did not work. Camera remains parked in preset 2 when triggered by spotter cam. judging by @jmcu comments it looks like its been a legacy issue hence the work around he has identified but thats certainly not a fix :blankstare:

    Yeah i saw others using this work around but maybe there is a 49225 & 5216 firmware combination that will enable the idle return to work as it should.

    @Wildcat_1 Is it possible that you or any other forum members with this camera check the PTZ linkage function ? My parked postion is preset 1 with a preset 2 zone that is monitored by a fixed camera. Once an event is detected by my fixed camera in zone 2 the PTZ swings around to preset 2 and...
