    Pros v Cons for updating USA spec N98A6N with NVR608H-64-XI latest firmware. (if even possible?)

    I dont really need it but some customers may want it. Will have to see how useful it will be overtime. With 1 or 2 cameras maybe not. With many perhaps. All my customers are stores and warehouses :) I have 9 AI cameras on a previous 27 camera job. Several on a couple big jobs I am doing now -...

    Pros v Cons for updating USA spec N98A6N with NVR608H-64-XI latest firmware. (if even possible?)

    Yes I have the 8 port PRO EI and it has all the Acupick features and works great over the Network. I was surprised to see they never added Acupick into their higher end AI NVR, at least not into the Web Service which is how most people access this kind of machine, over the network. Id like to...

    Pros v Cons for updating USA spec N98A6N with NVR608H-64-XI latest firmware. (if even possible?)

    It would not load video at all through Smart PSS. And Device config would not open the web service. Went back to 2024 firmware using SmartPSS update and it worked. Surprised Smart PSS update worked to be honest especially over p2p. The reason I was trying the update was incase they added...

    Pros v Cons for updating USA spec N98A6N with NVR608H-64-XI latest firmware. (if even possible?)

    The NVR608-XI 2024 firmware does not have Acupick in its Web Service, so unless you have direct local access Acupick is not available. Updating to the Jan 2025 firmware on the main Dahua site caused my 608 not to work properly, had to go back to 2024 fw. Question, does the USA 2023 fw have...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    The 5842 S3 Zoom is terrible at night. Stick with the 5442 unless you literally have tons of light. The 8mp 2.8mm is better at night than the ZOOM model, but darker than the 5442 2.8mm (it has a real digital zoom though, blows away the 5442 in good light). Since you have a bunch of 5442s you can...

    P2P service Down for several systems suddenly. Tech support no help. US

    May depend on what type of phone you have. Mine is an A32 samsung with is fine with everything else. But DMSS can barely load 2 or 3 sites in the list before crashing and having to restart the app. And swiping pages rarely works.

    P2P service Down for several systems suddenly. Tech support no help. US

    Yes this started for me just yesterday after a client notified me he could not connect to his local systems plus others his company installed separately. I have dozens of clients using p2p as they dont have static IP addresses. In gDMSS I have literally dozens and dozens of devices and many...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    No its not connected to a monitor yet. I only have the 1 XI as yet. Eventually may get a monitor but all they have is a 90's crt. Also, Metadata at one of my clients using the IPC-T54IR-ZE (plan to upgrade to the 8MP to get faces and plates double the distance), averages about 1100 humans and...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    Quick question about the XI as Dahua specs vary. Its basically 8 channels of AI by recorder for everything right? So 4x Face Recognition, 2 Video Metadata, 2 SMD would max it out, or is SMD not counted? On the EI when I did Face Rec on 1 channel it limited me to 4 x SMD by recorder max. As you...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    Yeah I can see the difference in the AI features as I throw Metadata and Face recognition on basic 2000 series cameras and it works (albeit faces not as good as the 5000 series and was only for testing purposes). And its not as limited as with the EI. But I definitely have more customers picking...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    Thanks, unfortunately its hard to get the customer to spend on the 7xx models. Hoping they may come out with cheaper APNR models in the future. Definately waiting on Acupick 2.0. Thought we would be able to use AcuPick 1.0 over web service with this XI but guess we have to wait for now. Also...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    Hi Wildcat nice videos. I have used the 8MP out in the field and its great at getting faces and plates while zoomed in on a road (during the day). It gets them twice as far as the 4MP I also have on another site (eg. 600+ vehicles before 10am, 2000 human detections by midday). When I left it...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-HFW5449T1-ASE+D2 - Dual Lens Full Color 2.0

    Does the dome have Active Deterrence? Flashing strobes and siren through speaker. Also if so does it allow custom audio files like the other AD cameras?

    Latest New NVR5xxx-4KS2 General_NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.001.0000006.1.R.210709

    Yes older firmware all face notifications work fine, but then the channel names keep changing when the NVR reboots. EDIT. After tracking the Aug 2021 firmware that ALSO does not register every face event. Never noticed it before. Albeit these are not great face captures as they are far away or...

    Latest New NVR5xxx-4KS2 General_NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.001.0000006.1.R.210709

    Strange thing is its working this time. I tried it again and now all the IVS and Face alerts work. At least with Jan 20, 2022 firmware. Thanks. EDIT- spoke to soon, Its not reporting all the face events. For some ts recording them as Intelligent event, but not saving as face detection event...
