    External mic setup for HIKvision DS-2CD2645FWD-IZS

    Won't work. Lapel mics are usually paired with a body pack wireless tx or connected directly to some type of preamp (phone, laptop, mixer, etc.). Search for Audio Surveillance Mics or similar.

    Earthquake Camera Shake

    Lived in the Bay area 25+ yrs, lots of shakers, mostly minor. Fun fact - while driving you almost never feel an earthquake unless it's a big one. If you do, mostly disregarded as wind gust, road bump, etc. Wonder if those in the video felt anything?

    Possible to get an analog feed from IP system?

    A slight contradiction in terms - do you want an analog feed or HDMI (digital) feed? Or both? For HDMI, a basic decoder will work. Check the specs for what stream you need to decode - H.264, H.265, etc. There are also decoders available for analog signals: TVI, CVI & analog HD signals. Same...

    Hurricane Nicole - Any one else going to be impacted?

    A couple hours North of you in St Augustine. Expecting 70mph gusts, 3'-5' storm surge, lots of rain. This one is literally 'bigger than Texas' @ 970 miles wide. Stay safe!

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-HDW5849H-ASE-LED / IPC-Color4K-T - 2.8mm Turret

    BUG MAGNET! Great camera, but (at night using LEDs) my Alerts Tab is filled with flying insects attracted to the light. It's installed at a location where there is very little light, so need to use the LEDs. Looking to use supplemental lighting vs. camera LEDs, or move to another location with...

    Feed two PoE cameras with one network cable

    Here's a good capture showing POE Mode A & B pinouts, as related to PDs & PSEs. If you are cabled direct from a POE switch (Endspan) to your camera, you are using Mode A pinout. This sends POE power over the same pins (1,2,3,6) that carry data, leaving pins (4,5,7,8) unused.

    LED string light flickering

    Actually, the LEDs turn on/off twice during a 60Hz cycle. Which makes them flicker at 120Hz. Try setting your Frame Rate (and IFrame) to 30FPS, and changing the Exposure to something divisible by 60 (1/60, 1/120).

    LED string light flickering

    Check the 'Video Standard' setting, which is probably set for NTSC 60Hz. Change to PAL 50Hz and see if that makes a difference.

    POE Switch but for wider operating temperatures? (mount in the uninsulated attic)

    Search for 'industrial switchers', Moxa is a good example. Standard Models: -10 to 60°C Wide Temp Models: -40° to 85°C Ambient Humidity 5 to 95%

    How much did your system cost you?

    There's equipment costs, AND labor costs. Your time to research, purchase, install and the big one - config of the software. Which is a big learning curve & always an ongoing process. My guess is the assumed labor costs far exceed the equipment.

    Shitty End to a Great Weekend.

    I went with the Siemens FS140 - more $$ then most but offers very high surge capacity, and I live in FL. Decent install video here. Siemens FS140 link doesn't work, see attached PDF.

    NEC 2020 updates include whole home surge protection (Type 1 or 2 SPDs) for new & replaced power service equipment supplying dwellings.
