    Put in a conduit with audio cable also. The chickens will appreciate the music.

    WD Purple HDD sale

    I use two WD Purple Pro 10TB hard drives in my NVR, and they have worked well. They were each $250 at Amazon. A couple weeks ago they rose to $260+ but have since dropped back down to $250. I'd definitely recommend them.

    Who here uses a Mac (all Apple devices in general), and why? Seriously...

    Ha ha, yeah I saved up for a calculator for two years in high school when TI calculators came out. The choice was either a TI or a HP with reverse Polish notation.

    Who here uses a Mac (all Apple devices in general), and why? Seriously...

    On some tasks Macs are always playing catch-up, however, I prefer using a Mac over a Windows machine. The best way to describe it is by taking a drive into San Francisco. In San Francisco, you can always see your destination, but just before you get there you’ll encounter a one-way street you...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    What resolution settings are you using for the 4K B180? Have you tried 4096 x 1216? It is much less distorted.

    IPC-Color4K-T 4K

    As an example, the first pic is the settings for one of my 4K-X cameras, and the second pic is the settings for a 4K-T camera.

    IPC-Color4K-T 4K

    When I had a couple of the older PTZ's (SD39225XA-HNR), I disliked having to alter the day/night settings each month using IE, so the little bit of pain of about 1/2 hour, entering the values for the schedule for these cams, seems not nearly as difficult. Someday I think I'll write an...

    IPC-Color4K-T 4K

    It's also helpful to do a Google search of sunrise/setset times for your location (including when daylight saving/stadard times start and end). Type in the values for each month in the plan, and it will look something like this.

    4K-X 6mm uneven focus

    Every situation is different, so using one camera will always be a compromise. I like to mix and match because each camera is unique and adds something that another might miss. As an example, I use four cameras for my driveway: Color 4K-T180, PTZ 5A4M-25x, Color 4K-X (6mm), and B54IR-Z4E S3...

    PTZ5A4M-25X IVS Issues

    I was having the exact same problem with my camera. I climbed up on the ladder and did a factory reset of the PTZ, and that solved all the issues. I have since installed the latest beta animal software (build date: 3/17/25) from Andy, and it has been working great. Here is a screenshot of what...

    PTZ6C2M-45X vs PTZ5A4M-25X

    It sure was. No plate on the back of the car at all. His marker must have run out of ink.
