we have a roof air system that we leave on all week. It's roughly 15 ft away and on a different circuit and breaker if that helps. Out of 6 cameras/locations, this is the only one that does it.

I ordered two shielded cables from Amazon which arrived yesterday so I'll swap out the cables this week and see what happens. Ironically, the camera at the opposite end of the room has had no issues. The run is maybe 3 feet shorter but there are electrical cables running as close as is the other...

nayr, the problem followed the location. I have the same results with two different cameras so it leads me to believe it's location dependent. Now that you mentioned it, I used shielded cable on all of the outdoor cameras but not the two inside ones. I think I have an extension cord running...

I have an issue with a camera going off line then coming back on in a day, maybe 3. My setup is 6 IP Cams connected to a WS-POE-48v60w POE Injector using BI software installed on a Dell server. 4 cameras are outside and 2 are inside. All outside cameras are working fine. One inside camera is...

Would you happen to have a camera in mind that would be a good candidate? I have 6 cameras now, all on BI running on a Dell Xeon server. Will I be able to add the new camera with no software hiccups?

This is in continuation to a cable post I made several weeks ago. I needed to get some pictures of the surroundings before I ask more questions. This is what I’m trying to capture from a camera mounted on the telephone pole mentioned earlier in this post. I would like to be able to see...

Thanks everyone. I wish there was an easier way though. I guess this is the only way I'm going to be able to see all of that area with one camera. The front door is the main area of concern. The camera I have there now is too close

Thanks guys. Are there special ends I should use to pull the cable tight?

I’m looking for ideas on how to run 100ft of outdoor cat5E cable from a telephone pole to a building. I would like to use POE so I don’t need additional power to the camera. I think with this length, I will need some kind of strain relief or something to support it. I have a red line from the...

You lost me on this one. Are there settings I should be looking at to improve the image quality with the additional lighting?

Any IR illuminator in particular you would recommend?

I'm thinking Wi-Fi as well. His site is maybe 1000 yards away so my Wi-Fi connection wouldn't do him any good unless he was trying to access something on my network. The part of the campground we are in is closed for the season. If it’s who I think it is, he has a permanent site in another part...

Unfortunately, I just had a case of someone walking around our RV site with a hand held device. I have 4 cameras and all 4 picked up on him at various stages of his presence. Only problem is it was around 5:30 in the evening so the lighting wasn’t the best. I can see enough of him that I feel...

Is there a way to increase the amount of time a recording continues after the initial trigger? I’m not sure which setting controls this if any. Also, I get hundreds of emails daily due to the way I have the alerts setup n four cameras. Is here a way to reduce this and still get important...

I have several Hikvision cameras installedat our site in a local campground. Iwould like to view these cameras remotely using the Blue Iris or TinyCam MonitorPro app. I have purchased both. I use the Blue Iris software for controlling mycameras. I recently purchased an Asus RT-N66U router and...
