    Adding Dahua 5231R-Z to Lorex NVR

    I may have left that enabled. But still, I can't have the NVR forgetting the config for that camera after a reboot or power failure.

    Adding Dahua 5231R-Z to Lorex NVR

    I'm trying to help out a neighbor add a Dahua 5231R-Z to his Lorex NVR. I got the camera to connect as an ONVIF device and everything seems to work for a while. But it periodically disconnects and when you look at the device config it's set back to private. It's like it's not saving the...

    Commercial Setup

    I setup a large 44 camera setup with Avigilon a few years back for a friend’s retail. Avigilon really is very nice software. It doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles but it is super-efficient. We have it running on an old Dell 510 server (dual Xeon CPU) and it runs at like 5% load. That...

    HK cam and milestone

    log into the camera and go to the motion detection configuration page. You can set a schedule there of when motion detection is enabled. Now the camera will only send the motion alarms when you want :-)

    Which IR Emitter works best with Dahua cameras?

    I've tried 2 times now to order the style nayr has but both times the order never shipped and got cancelled. Hard to find a store that actually has them or cares to keep a real stock level.

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    Got mine up and running. Trying it out as a LPR cam currently and it's working well. But for some reason I'm not getting very good motion triggering for recording on Milestone. At night it only seems to trigger like 20% of the time. You can see my old Hik2032(12mm lens) on the bottom and new...

    Configure ivms4200 to use substream

    Go into the system options and the image tab. Make sure the stream is NOT on auto select. Go back to the view screen and stop all the views so nothing is displayed. Then right click on the camera and you can select the stream to use. This is what I remember without being at my system. If...

    Please tell me if I am on the right track, building Server:

    Milestone does run as a Windows service, so it starts without logging into the computer on boot. Milestone uses very little CPU for the recording server less than 15% for a 8 camera setup. This is because it can use motion detection from the camera HW. That's my experience running on an i3...

    If you don't need more than 24 cams or network storage, you can use essential which is only $50 per cam

    What do you think is the most MATURE NVR software out there?

    I'm currently looking at Milestone Express for an install at a friends business. It is $100 per cam, no yearly fee. There is a fee if you want to get software updates beyond the first year. But if everything works fine I don't see the need to pay for the updates. I ran 8 cams(3MP) on an old...
