    Dahua Camera Settings ?

    Okay so what you saying is the NVR is to basic for the LPR configurations. Which is what I ran into last night, as most the settings I was looking for I couldn't find. So how do I log into the camera to get to these settings, just get on my local network and type in its IP address and log in...

    Dahua Camera Settings ?

    Nayr, I have the cameras plugged into the POE switch on back of the NVR. I can view the cameras, well 3 of the 4 and not sure what the deal is on the 4th as all 8 pen's on the cat6 on each end show being correct and in order. So you have the screen that shows each cameras IP on the Main Menu...

    Dahua Camera Settings ?

    I have a HFW-5220E-Z fixed camera and want to adjust the gain and shutter speed etc to capture License plates. I am running a Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2 and didn't see anything for gain, shutter speed ect. I would guess I would somehow need to log into the camera? I might have missed it on the Main...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    The mount is approx. 35" higher than the pole that is 11.5' high so the total height is approx. 14' off the ground. These are the 30x zoom which is way more than needed and I plan to paint things high gloss black. With the light below on the pole when you look up at night you don't see pole or...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    Well the pole has been up and was waiting on a few last things to get this project up and running. Hoping with fingers crossed I can get the cameras up and running this weekend. I did install my PFB303S PTZ mount on the pole and think it looks pretty cool and can rotate the camera on the pole...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    I hope so Nayr, I have spent quite a bit of time doing my research on here and learning as much as I can. Looking forward to having it all complete, but have a feeling it will be always work in progress and additions to come. It is a little over the top and my wife says I am crazy, but she...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    I might put it back up, but we shall see it was right at the road with the 10' easement. So was a little on the bright side, so I bought the 50w and will use it till I decide if I want to put the 100w back up. This way I will always have a back up light if one goes out. Might get lucky and them...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    just got it all wired up and was actually waiting on one last thing from China before doing the camera install. I also took down the 100w LE, and put up a 50w, but bet it would still give you perspective... Once I have the last shipment, which this time left EMS on 19th of last month and was...

    Nayr, what splitter are you now using? I have two that I bought and was planning on using since you had purchased them for the Mic previously. Was going to be for my bullet cameras, not the PTZ's

    Bullet Mic Review

    So on the PTZ how would be the best way to power the Mic since it is POE+. On the fixed it is easy, as just use the POE splitter, but the PTZ's not sure about ?

    Bullet Mic Review

    Wonder if this mic could be Poe powered by the splitter and run it back to mic in on NVR. If that was done would it play sound for all the cameras on the NVR. Have the mic and splitter and wondering if I am stuck buying one for each camera and have 2 PTZs that I will need to also put mic's on as...

    Bullet Mic Review

    I do understand how to use the 12V Splitter but that wouldn't work on a POE+ for the PTZ. Just curious to see how this one was hooked up, and might make me buy more Mics or just stay with the one. Was hoping to get at least one camera to record sound, but would be awesome if I could take that...

    Bullet Mic Review

    Can you take a pic of the wiring for the mic. I have one mic and going to hook it up to my fixed camera but wonder if I needed to hook one up to all of my PTZ's as well. I have the same PTZ as you just the 30x

    Dahua best microSD cards - suggestions?

    Okay that is what I thought it would be the secondary and makes perfect sense. Having not opened all my stuff up and hooked it all up, I have no idea on what displays per the NVR ect ie your screen shot. But in due time I will have time to get it all in and working.

    Dahua best microSD cards - suggestions?

    Okay which is what I thought it was being used for, in this particular post he is using it as the primary for recording and not as a secondary back up ?? Also how would you know if it stopped working or failed as the back up? Say it got fried or whatever, and the NVR still worked, how would you...

    LED Floodlight Placement?

    I live one house from 2 bars. I plan to light it up so people keep walking and don't use my driveway as a turn around. And to make sure if they do hit my gate I have tags and information to go after them. Already put a guy at gun point and had him arrested for treaspassing.

    LED Floodlight Placement?

    Okay so question what is the brightest IR lights and best way to power them up. As far as placement for pole, that is the best location for the layout of the front yard. As for LED it will be mainly to light up the street/gate.
