Thanks for the reply cd36. I am already doing everything you have advised. But maybe I just need to keep increasing the minimum size...? Just so I am clear, in regards to the minimum size box, is the size calculated by the total box area (and not the minimum width or height of the box)? e.g. If...

I am trying to fine tune my setup and the one aspect I am struggling with is the amount of event triggers I am seeing from cats entering an intrusion zone. I have made sure to set the minimum detection size to larger than a small animal (and the maximum size to larger than a person), but...

The Dakota unit has arrived, is now connected and fully functional. This solution is even neater than I expected! Thank you very much for the recommendations, eggsan :thumb:. Just need to find a better way of creating a 'battery eliminator'. Those guides seem a little too DIY/amateurish to me...

Amazingly helpful! Thank you so much for the explanations and links! I've ordered the Dakota 4K Plus and will look into wiring the transmitter up to a power supply :).

Brilliant! Here is a comparison and demo video between the UTRE-4K Plus and the UTDCR-4000 for anyone else looking for a similar solution. I may as well opt for the UTRE 4k Plus. It includes the same features as the UTDCR 4000 (unless you can correct me?) but allows for extra future expansion...

Thank you for the reply eggsan. Is there no reason whatsoever to install an external relay between the NVR and 12v supply? In what instance would an external relay be advisable to protect the NVR from over-current? The siren will be located internally, within 15 metres of the NVR. I only want...

I have a Hikvision DS-7616NXI-I2/16P/4S NVR which I would like to notify me of any events (e.g. intrusions/line crossings) via an external chime. I'd want this to be particularly loud as I find the NVR's internal chime isn't sufficient. What is the neatest/simplest way to set this up? Is there...

That's a very informative response, thank you lewic!

How about in other markets which I may be able to import from? Is the year time-frame pretty standard across the world?

Does anyone know when the DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL 4k turret cameras with strobe lights and speakers are to be released? I can't find any stock or prices on these yet, only a couple video reviews.

I fully appreciate this is a very Dahua-focused forum and therefore the support would be second-to-none. However, I already have good knowledge of the Hikvision models and how they differ. Hik equipment is also much more widely accessible over here. That's not to say that Dahua doesn't exist or...

Any chance you could summarise the conclusion of the testing as I don't have access to that article.

I'm trying to decide between Hikvision and Dahua for a new CCTV install. The AI element in terms of filtering out false alerts for people and vehicle notifications is the most important element for me. Do you guys have any evidence of which manufacturer's algorithms and software is better in...

Does anyone have any experience with the Deepinview cameras (such as those offered within the IDS range) or NVR's? How further advanced are the video analysis algorithms and features from what has been included into the Acusense cameras and NVR's? I'm wondering whether it's worth spending more...

I am planning a new install consisting of a Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P NVR and some DS-2CD2386G2-IU Acusense cameras. Before I purchase this kit, I would like to know what options I have and how I would go about outputting a signal from the Hikvision NVR to an alarm panel or even a simple 12v...
