    General question on use of POE switch for NVR

    That's how I started. But that means all the 4K cameras are using my network bandwidth instead of a smaller sub stream. Is there a chart or formula to determine exactly how much bandwidth a camera uses?

    General question on use of POE switch for NVR

    So that didn't work. I unplugged 6 cameras from the NVR. Plugger 2 cameras into the switch and plugged the switch into an empty POE port. Could not find any camera on the config tool. The two cameras I did use had an IP address when plugged into the switch before. I don't know if I need to...

    General question on use of POE switch for NVR

    Ahh, ok I never thought about that. I can keep cameras off the network, power them through the switch the send the feed from the NVR through the sub stream. Going to try that later today. Thanks!

    General question on use of POE switch for NVR

    The computer I'm using has an i7-8086K over clocked to 5.1 and dual GTX1080ti s in SLI over clocked. I don't want heat them up too much. I like the sub-stream to my PC as it's low bandwidth and low resources. I will keep the switch in the system for backup. The NVR I replaced was the same...

    General question on use of POE switch for NVR

    I tried that with Blue Iris and I can only get the first channel. There is a post from last year that showed the path which included the channel number. But in the newest version, which I have, the path is blank. I emailed BI a couple of days ago about this, still waiting for a response.

    General question on use of POE switch for NVR

    I have a Dahua NVR with POE for 16 cameras. Been happy with it. But I wanted to use BI on my computer just to monitor the feeds as I'm not crazy with Smart PSS. Right now all the cameras on the NVR send a sub-stream over my network to my computer. The resources used are pretty, less than...

    How to stop Smart PSS Tone on PC

    I installed Smart PSS on my PC last week and every now and then I get a tone like a long beep three time. It's driving me crazy. I read the Smart PSS wiki and I can't find the setting that is causing this alarm to go off. The red event icon in the upper right is silent and shows 0. I've...

    Junction box - Camera specific or generic round electrical PVC one?

    Doesn't the camera come with a watertight ethernet fitting? I have most of mine mounted to the wall under the overhang. I drilled through the wall into the attic/garage and the connector always falls inside, about 1 foot. This way the wire is not seen or exposed outside. I do have a couple...

    NVR5216-16P-4KS2E

    I just bought this NVR last week and I have 14x 4k cameras plugged into its POE ports running 4K at 30fps. And 2x wifi 3MP cameras. It replaced a Q-See QC826 (same thing). I currently run them at 15fps. though. I do plan to move the cameras onto a POE switch in the future for more options...

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    I'm using WD Purple. Do you have or know of a calculator to tell me how long I can record? Thanks!

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    I am using post # 2, I do not have an IVS box so I'm using the first 5 images as a guide. Currently I have the yellow MD box checked only. 24 hour period, main stream is auto and sub manual. Still recording.

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    I unchecked regular and only checked MD. So now it still records constantly but marks when there is motion on playback with a yellow line. I will consider keeping 24/7 (not that it appears I have a choice) I just need to see how long 16 4K @15fps will keep time wise on 2x 4TB hard drives...

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    Thanks for this thread! Just bought from Andy an NVR5216-16P-4KS2E. Followed your instructions. I moved two of 16 cameras (4K, IP, Dahua mfg) over from a Q-see NVR and they popped on fine and recording. Had to change the camera passwords but the are working. Two questions; they are recording...

    Hello, new here.

    So I used the "modify IP" within The NVR to give a camera a new IP that was unused on my IP scan. Plugged the camera into an POE injector and plugged that into my network. Waited a few minutes and nothing. Tried a different IP and the same. Also I opened Dahua IP Config tool and not there...

    Hello, new here.

    Home is 192 The NVR is in 192. Within the NVR interface I can modify the the IP. I changed it to an open 192 and the NVR says "Cannot connect to network. I "assume" if I change it then remove it from the NVR and just plug it directly into my home network it will be found in Blue Iris or any...

    Hello, new here.

    I have the Q-see Config tool and downloaded the Dahua. Both very similar, obviously same software. Both found the NVR. I had more options on Dahua. After I opened and looked at the Q-See I installed the Dahua and it over wrote the other so I can't use both. I can batch modify the IP. Has a...

    Hello, new here.

    I ran an IP scan and the last three digits of the 10.1.1xxx do not match up to IPs that are 192.168.1.xxx Some are being used. But there are a bunch, more than the number of camera's but most are labeled dead. I think tomorrow I will unplug a couple from the NVR and plug them into a switch...

    Hello, new here.

    That is a relief! Is there a diagram or instructions on how to connect network to switch to cameras? Plug network line into switch, plug cameras into switch, plug switch into computer? That leaves me 14 cameras on a 16 port switch, correct? Thanks for quick reply.

    Hello, new here.

    Hi I'm Steve from Reno, NV I've been using Q-see for a about 6 years now. I upgraded my system to 4k IP about 2 years ago. I ran cat 5e all over. Currently Q-see has announce it's going out of business Jan 31st and saying if I want to view my cameras remotely I have to turn on DMZ for the IP...
