    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    I just got back from my local Walgreens and the shelves w. hand wipes,toilet paper, disinfectant were all bare. The clerk said that all the other stores (even non-Walgreens) were in a similar shape. The virus hasn't even hit here yet.

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    CDC says that one should stay in a room by themselves with door closed. One non-symptomatic person be assigned as care-giver. Use a dedicated bathroom, towels, utensils etc... Frequent had-washing and sanitation. Also, avoid your pets . I suspect the later is because their fur can transport...

    Anyone use ai-homeguard software?

    I recently purchased ai-homegurad just to compare it to BI. Setting up a tripwire, they call them virtual lasers lines is simply using your mouse to draw a line on the camera image - very simple. The predetermined (learned) detection for people, cars etc has parameters which can be set...

    Is it possible to zoom-in and scroll thru a live cam image?

    I tested this by turning off PTZ Controls on one of my cams and am able to now scroll around as I did in the past. Thank you very much!

    Is it possible to zoom-in and scroll thru a live cam image?

    Can you 'scroll' thru a live cam image. I know that you can do this with a clip. 1) Select a camera 2) Double-click to make image full screen 3) Use mouse wheel to zoom-in 4) Hold Left-mouse-button down and try to drag image in various directions. This is useful for examining a portion of the...

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    When you see these guys running around in their hazmat suits and masks spraying disinfectant - what are they using Lysol - Chlorox- Alcohol? Could this be made at home to kill off the virus?

    NVR and networking troubles

    Just to be clear - your warnings ONLY apply to cams attached to the NVR switch. Other LAN based cams can be setup with the NVR . Is that correct?

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    They are seeing many birds dead in the city which they blame on too much disinfectant being used. However, they are also finding dead wildlife - wonder what excuse they'll come up with for that! In order to protect CCP the officials have totally mismanaged this whole outbreak.

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    I rcv'd a notice from Amazon cancelling my order of some N95 masks today due to unavailability. I checked for other sources on Amazon and was amazed that almost all the sellers were also marked as 'Unavailable' !

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    Well, after many hours of trial and error (mostly error), I finally got all of my cams to work. Here are the steps I took. 1) Go to System - Security - Private Protocol Auth. Mode Change from Security Mode to Compatibility Mode 2) Go to Cameras - Registration a) IF the camera is already...

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    I've checked the first three octets of the MACs of my cams and they are all registered to Dahua . The list of MAC ids assigned to Dahua is pretty small and I would think that the firmware could check for them. However, in my case ALL of my MACs are Dahua so there must be something else going on.

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    I bought the Hxw2100's at Empire Security Cameras around the time Dahua was changing their policy about US sales. The 4300's were bought from HDSecurity Store a little later. I don't believe that Empire is still around.

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    I have updated my chart to include MAC and versions . None of the cams which will not connect show ONVIF version in their info. However 157 and 158 work.

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    Maybe Andy can shed some light on just what criteria the new NVRs are using to reject the cams. Looks like I'll be replacing some cameras soon!

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    The LAN is 192.168.1.xxx and if I remember correctly the NVR POE Switch is 10.1.1.xxx I like to ask a stupid question - how does the nvr KNOW that the ipc was hacked? What is it looking at - serial num?

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    Here is a list. The Green background work and the Red are the ones which do not. Based on the serial number patterns I would guess that 166,167 and 160 are hacked. Also I suspect that 163 is a HDW3200 dome (too cold to go outside and pull it to check) I bought the 5216 from Andy - when he...

    New 5216 nvr will not connect to 6 of my cameras which work fine with my old 4216

    I recently bought a Dahua NVR(DHI-NVR5216-16P-4KS2E) to replace old Dahua 4216. About half of my cameras will not connect to the 5216 although they work perfectly with both the 4216 and BlueIris. I have upgraded the 5216 to the latest firmware but that did not help. The cameras that do not...

    Weather overlay in web server shows Centigrade while BI show temps in Fahrenheit

    I just noticed that when BI is accessed via web browser the BIT overlay shows the temps in Centigrade. When the same overlay is accessed via BI it is in Fahrenheit. BIT option is set to Imperial. Is there another setting that needs to be changed for the web server files?
