    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet Z12 5.3-64mm (IPC-HFW5231E-Z12)

    I would imagine there is a motor inside that macro moves the lens back and forth to get the Focus in check. For those Windows users that have 24/7 PC or Servers running, you can try setting up a Dummy Switch in Domoticz to have the Camera Focus/Zoom adjusted automatically throughout the day. I...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet Z12 5.3-64mm (IPC-HFW5231E-Z12)

    Just use the Adjust Focus command if you already know what your Focus and Zoom setting needs to be. The Get Focus command is used only if you actually want to physically check to see what the current Focus and Zoom values are. As far as wearing out the camera over time, I doubt this will be a...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet Z5 7-35mm (IPC-HFW5231E-Z5) Some guys on the Z5 page made reference to setting the focus manually in the camera UI and to also disable any Zooming capability in Blue Iris if you have zones enabled as they can be triggered on accident easily when remotely using...

    I was able to fix my zoom issue last night by following using the Find/Inspect Button in BI under that Specific Camera's Video/Configure properties. I left just the Username, Password, and Camera IP while leaving the Port Number Blank. Learned the method from this thread: Dahua + Blue iris...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet Z12 5.3-64mm (IPC-HFW5231E-Z12)

    Installed my Z12 last night and using it with Blue Iris. I'm having trouble being able to macro zoom in small increments using Blue Iris. When I zoom in using Blue Iris, the camera zooms from 0% to around 75% with one short click. Clicking Zoom in button again zooms to 100%. The same thing...

    The Apple Certificate expires on October 30th every year supposedly. I thought it was something on my end until I googled and saw a post from last year.
