Thank you

Thanks for your advice. Can i just confirm that the camera itself doesnt supply any voltage from the green terminal block to the Mic? Instead i have to find an alterntaive power source? Also i read somewhere else that the yellow RCA socket is not audio but is actually Analogue video so im even...

Hi all, Even thought ive had this camera hooked for some time, ive only now really understood why there was never any audio heard.:facepalm: I cant find anything in the manuals to clarify how i would connect up an external MIC though. Ive attached a photo of the connections available. Q. Do i...

Bingo. It looks like you picked up the same one as me which doenst work! https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B019BW9TX6/ref=pe_15237832_413114132_em_1p_0_ti?th=1 The Zenith one i purchased later is identical and does work.

Sorry, very late reply but yes i did find a chime that works in Australia. The 1st chime i purchased wouldn't work. The second chime i purchase looked identical to the first one and it did work. The model that worked was the ordered from Amazon. Heath Zenith SL-2796-02 Basic Series Wired Door...

T Thanks for the advice. I have seen plug in power suppliers that offer either DC or AC voltages. In fact Amazon have this one available in Australia AC1615 DOSS 16Vac 1.5A Ac Power Supply - Suits Alarm Panels Bare Wire Input: 240 V Ac 50Hz Input: 240 V Ac 50Hz, Output: 16 V Ac: Amazon.com.au...

Thanks, i dont have a chime unit yet nor do i have a transformer, i was wanting to understand how they work first so i can research an appropriate model in Australia. The only information out there seems to be around the US market so im not sure if i now have an expensive paperweight?

Not that we install things upside down in Oz but our houses dont have Chimes like in the US. Ive been in touch with Amcrest support but they seem to copy and paste whats on their website. Ive received my AD110 door bell and Amcrest support said it supported both AC and DC so i hooked it up to...

Wow thats impressive. Ill definitely have another look at my setup again tonight. Thanks

I didnt fit the camera, so if there is any lens ring missing then i guess im stuck with that. I thought the image was actually quite good and I did watch the video at night and it looked ok to me apart from the glare of the car lights (see attached) Should i expect better for this model?

Hi Guys, thanks for all the advice. I had a play with the settings last night and essentially turning off the IR made the biggest difference. I didnt touch the Dome cover and am quite happy with the results (see attached)

Thanks, will check this also.

OK ill give that a try. Thanks

Thanks for the fast response. I dont see shutter speed in the settings though. The frame rate was only set to 10, would that be the same thing? Thanks

Hi all, I have a Dahua IPC-HDBW8231E-ZE and the daytime picture quality is amazing. However the night time pics always have these blurry spots on the image. Can anyone advise what might be causing them? Is this something in the dome cover i need to clean off? Attached are day and night images...
