    Anyone know of a smaller square junction box for bullet cam?

    Dahua overlay problem

    I did it 1 by 1 through the web interface. I don’t think idmss would work, but smartpss might. It actually wasn’t too time consuming since the network and zoom settings didn’t change. I simply had to go back in and set the exposure, encode, overlay, and time setting. Sent from my iPhone...

    Dahua overlay problem

    Just in case anyone else runs into this problem, resetting the cameras to factory default fixed the problem. I still don't know how all 13 cameras developed this issue at the same time, but that's the solution.

    Dahua overlay problem

    I was looking through my cameras using iDMSS today and noticed that the overlays no longer had the white font and were just a black outline of the text on all 13 cameras. The cameras are all 5231r-z and the nvr is a 5416-4ks2. I tired disabling and re-enabling the overlays through both smartPSS...

    Almost time.... Empire Order

    I have the 5416 and it’s not too loud. You can sit next to it for a while without going crazy, but I definitely wouldn’t put it in a bedroom. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    WD RED vs PURPLE

    I had the same thing happen. The drive had a broken sata port so I sent it back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    External cables going into house

    Not that I can think of. Plus, wouldn't you want the switch in a safer location where you don't have to worry about anyone messing with it.

    External cables going into house

    I wouldn't recommend it. You can put the switch in the garage and then run a single cable inside your house. You want to make sure the switch is in a location where it won't get wet, but it still needs airflow so mounting it in a junction box isn't a good idea.

    External cables going into house

    You are looking for a network switch. You can plug all of the cameras into the switch and then run a single cable into your house.
