    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    Mine doesn't say S3 like Andy's. It's possible that model numbers are write once only and Andy's model number is custom to his devices and dahua doesn't bother putting the S3 in their cams' model number. The only way to know for sure is to compare it to a known genuine dahua branded S3 cam...

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    I wonder if mine will say that if I put Andy's firmware on the cam? Gonna try it out. Isn't Andy's firmware better anyway?

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    I had updated it and it worked out fine. I even asked the seller at purchase time if it was firmware upgradeable and he said yes.

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    But is it possible that the Chinese region hacked firmware would allow the cam to be updated to the latest version? In the past, that wasn't really possible and was a good way to know if the cam was a fake. But if they've come this far and figured out how to do it, how much harder would it be to...

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    Another thing I forgot mention, does the S3 version come with the access panel for the sd card? I can't see it on any of the official pics but it's in the manual.

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    At the time I purchased that one, I forgot about Andy's website. I was looking at his amazon ones which were a bit more expensive plus tax. I got another 2 more of those cams coming from the same aliexpress store that I applied a $40 aliexpress coupon to the order. I'm doing a setup for a friend...

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    Yup, I see the new interface. But is it possible to run the new software on another version of the cam? Another thing I noticed was the cam was already initialized even though being factory sealed in a box, with its username and password on a sticker on the box.

    IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE S3 questions

    My Dahua IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE just arrived today. It's supposed to be an S3 version. How can I actually tell if it's an S3 version? it doesn't say on the sticker on the bottom of the cam, it only says on the sticker on the wire S3 next to 2.8mm and in tiny print on the box across from the p/n...

    NVR setting "Sync Remote Device"

    Each cam Has the DST setting and time zone input into them. Those don't change once set like how time drifts which is what ntp fixes. Haven't had any issues that way. If you don't set time zone and dst settings in each cam, yes, weird stuff happens.

    NVR setting "Sync Remote Device"

    To achieve this, I use the nvr's ip address as the time server address in each camera. All cams are synchronized to the second with the nvr this way.

    NVR setting "Sync Remote Device"

    Thanks for finding it but they don't clearly explain what they mean by synchronizing. Nvr settings push to cams or cam settings push to nvr? I'm guessing video standard is the frame rate and other video settings. Mine was on by default and have since unchecked it.

    NVR setting "Sync Remote Device"

    On the NVR, Settings > System > General > basic, "sync remote device" (include language, format and time zone) What exactly does this do? Does it sync nvr settings to the cams or sync cam settings to the nvr? I had a little incident last evening where I had setup ivs tripwire in a cam and the...

    are the NVR5216-EI and NVR5-EI SERIES (16ch) the exact same thing? if they are, are they the correct NVR's for the 5442 series cameras (IPC-HDW5442TM-ASE-S3) & (IPC-HDW5442T-ZE-S3) which will allow you to access all the cameras features and settings from the NVR? also, are the 5442 series...

    Microseven M7WP-MIC microphone with Dahua42212TNI - buzzing noise

    on the Microseven M7WP-MIC, is there continuity between the 12v ground and the audio ground? if this is the case, it may be possible that any power adapter you use might inject noise into the audio signal due to the power adapter design. even worse, any noise on your AC line may pass through...
