Be careful with this - these were also my thoughts exactly, and now I still cannot restore the original camera state... (see IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech )
@Zimberto or @EMPIRETECANDY, any ideas how to restore the provisioning data after upgrade and revert?
Also, is there are reason that Smart IR version is not on your page? Thank you.
@EMPIRETECANDY I was so happy when you announced your website, as this means having all latest firmwares at one place - empiretech01.com/pages/download-firmwares , instead of searching this forum (and getting confused in multiple threads) every time.
Or so I thought. After I updated my camera...
Hello everyone!
I just got multiple IPC-B5442E-ZE cameras and for some of them, I would like to enable two-way audio. I have setup everything related to audio on cameras via their web interface and general settings in Blue Iris.
Pressing Find/Inspect in Blue Iris always selects Generic/ONVIF...
Thank you both. After searching around a bit more, I found some API documents where the URLs that Alaska Country posted are described, and found out that I can set the lights from there. I need to test a bit more for alarms functionality.
I have only tried setting Illuminator to Manual on the...

Hello,
I currently have IPC-T5442T-ZE and 2x IPC-B5442E-ZE, and in the process of ordering 6 more. I like T(urret) version more, but B(ullet) has alarm output - considering which one to buy based on the problems below.
1. I noticed that integrated IR LEDs are too spotlight focused, so I would...
@ljw2k thanks to @EMPIRETECANDY's wizardry, I have just received 1x IPC-T5442T-ZE + 1x IPC-B5442E-ZE + 1x IPC-T5442TM-AS (for testing, to check which fixed-focal lens are the best, then I order 6 more) in one week with DHL without paying anything additionally or package stopping at customs. I...
Thank you for you answers, afterwards I stopped caring about this, because there is too much choice and I could never make a decision if I keep my engineering + overthinking attitude.
With the help of SouthernYankee's post and Arjun's post posts I decided I will most probably buy combination of...
Hello!
I'm reading this forum for a few months now and already bought used Dell OptiPlex 3060 (i5 8500, 8 GB DDR4, 258 GB m.2) which will be used to run Blue Iris for - as currently planned - 6 to 8 cameras (still deciding on FOV and 2/4/5 MP).
I was browsing Andy's (@EMPIRETECANDY) AliExpress...
