    Can't figure out face detection on IPC-HDW5231R-ZE

    The motion detection works if that's what you're asking. I don't neccesarily need face recognition but person/body recgognition would be nice.

    Tried adding second camera and now I'm all screwed up.

    I forgot to change the ip address initally and when attempting to change the address afterthe fact, it won't take. I might try the reset.

    Tried adding second camera and now I'm all screwed up.

    I recetnly attempted to add a second Dahua camera and I'm botched it up big time. I opened the config tool, saw the new camera listed, selected it and clicked initilaize.

    No longer able to find device with new router

    I have opened up the camera and didn't see any reset button nor did I find any documentation as to where it may be. I used the DMSS app to scan the bar code and reset the password. I'm now able to login and view my camera but still confused as to how to modify the ip using the directions...

    No longer able to find device with new router

    There's just one camera and it plugged into a new router (no switch). When I try to enter the address directly it goes nowhere, when I try to change the ip in the config tool it gives me an error that reads, Config result- Password error.

    No longer able to find device with new router

    Consolidated Communications, they provided me with a Netgear R6300 and with this router I never was able to see my camera. I switched to a Netgear TP Link Archer C50 and was able to see my camera again. The only problem now is trying to modify my IP.

    No longer able to find device with new router

    No, just got a new router from the ISP. Turns out it looks like the router was the issue, I tried a old router and now I can see my device but now I'm having problems modifying the ip. When I try to do so it says password error. I reset the password in the settings but get the same result.

    No longer able to find device with new router

    I had to get my router replaced due to the old one malfunctioning and now I can no longer access my camera. When I open the Dahua config tool it says the device can't be found. I've done some searching but haven't found the solution. Thoughts?

    Can't keep correct time

    Believe it or not the time zones all say GMT but I just selected the time that was 2 hours prior and it seems to work. When I saw everything time zone showing GMT I was confused, assuming GMT was supposed to stand for General Mountain Time??

    Can't keep correct time

    Out of the box my camera was set to Central time and I choose the option to sync to PC to get it to the correct time. I keep having to back and reselect this option. Does anyone know what I need to do to keep this from happening over and over again?

    Trust me, the police around here don't even investigate burglaries unless the item/s stolen are worth more than $950. Like I said earlier , Prop 47.

    How to prevent camera theft?

    You right. It's probably not legal. I'm not sure what is and isn't. I was thinking just chicken wire or something to make it harder to reach.

    How to prevent camera theft?

    At first I was thinking this person might not like surveillance in the area, across the street is a large public housing complex. But on other hand theft has also been a big issue, I'm in CA and can thank prop 47 for that. I was also thinking about putting a a peice of metal on the other side...
