    Looking for a New NVR

    Hi, Thank you for your reply. In my mind the only reason considering the AcuSense NVR was added reliability, as mentioned I've always had problems with false alarms and thought perhaps an NVR with AcuSense would be better, but if the technology is already built into my cameras perhaps it is a...

    Looking for a New NVR

    Current System: One Hikvision DS-7608NI-Q2/8P NVR Five Hikvision DS-2CD2087G2-L Cameras Looking to replace my current system due to age and also because it has developed a new bug that I don’t want to deal with anymore. Last one started occurring a week ago where the system appears to...

    Glass Face on Camera Cracked

    I've had these guys in my house for years, nothing new. I'll be updating some more fun stuff soon. By the way, that last camera that went out last Wednesday has magically started working again. Going to give it some time, maybe a week. Stay turned. :nervous:

    Glass Face on Camera Cracked

    Crack on one of the cameras was off to one side and was out of view of lens, so not recorded, the reason I found out about it was after a rain storm the image fogged up due to water getting inside. How long it was like that? My guess it happen between two to three weeks after the last lens...

    Glass Face on Camera Cracked

    Hi Tony, I use Sprayway ammonia free glass cleaner sold at HomeDepot, the temperature thing I'm just picking at straws. While I was writing this my wife, who's sitting right behind me tells me to look at the security monitor and sure enough I got another F-ing security camera out! Dam It...

    Glass Face on Camera Cracked

    Why ONLY distilled water? I know some glass cleaners have ammonia that may have bad effects on some surfaces but not on glass. Cleaner I use has no ammonia. Just curious why distill water only?

    Glass Face on Camera Cracked

    Got six Hikvision DS-2CD2087G2-L Cameras and two of them developed a crack. Lucky for me it happened under warranty so they were replaced (Thank you Hikvision). Wondering if anyone else has had this problem? One thing that may have caused this is the way I clean the cameras, which is spray some...

    FIXED!! Plastic inserts worked! Checked main service panel and sub panel and found nothing out of the ordinary, so it’s still a bit of a mystery why I was getting voltages between camera and NVR when camera was mounted using stucco screws. Anyway all is looking good and i wish to thank everyone...

    Hi mat200, I've thought of a PoE switch but I'm not quite done with trying other options. I'll be taking the camera down again today, so I can run a few more test. If all goes well I'll reinstall, only this time I'm going to use plastic inserts as isolators, which I hope will eliminate my...

    Well it took a week!!!! I just looked at my monitor this morning and that same cameras is out! Looked at back of NVR and the yellow and green network lights are out. I did the same routine of disconnecting and reconnecting cable from NVR and camera with the same negative results. I think at this...

    So it’s been a few days and everything seems to working fine. Going over things I did find one thing that may be a problem. First I must explain that my home was built in the 50’s so most of the outlets are two wire with no ground, which I found the NVR is connected too (outlet was three prong...

    UP DATE! IT'S WORKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How I got it to work is all theory and speculation. But first I'll tell you I went back to square one taking the camera down, bringing inside, testing, and doing what everyone had suggested with ZERO results. Tugging, crimping wires, net work test, cable...
