    Wiring PIR to alarm input DS-2CD2132F-IS

    Right - made some development: I have now set the alarm input on the IP camera itself, rather than the DVR, and now it works! The camera's behaviour after the alarm is triggered is independent of the DVR, so every action is local and does not record onto the DVR nor can I select other cameras...

    Help on conduit sizing for 1280ZJ DM18 back box (UK sizing)

    https://www.use-ip.co.uk/hikvision-ds-1280zj-dm18-junction-box.html Above is what the gland looks like. I can't find anywhere in the UK with compatible conduit accessories. I am trying to find a reducer to 20 millimetres or or enlarger to 25 millimetres which is what we use in the UK, but...

    Wiring PIR to alarm input DS-2CD2132F-IS

    But I have also gone to the camera itself, and shorted the alarm In and GND wires. Nothing happens either, but is this how to test the camera's input locally? Attached is a photo of my PIR connections, nothing changed since it was working successfully with my old Dedicated Micros DS2, just the...

    Wiring PIR to alarm input DS-2CD2132F-IS

    About 15m. I see what you mean. What if I were to set the PIR to N.C., would that help the situation?

    Wiring PIR to alarm input DS-2CD2132F-IS

    Hi, Not sure if I am doing this right, but I want my GJD PIR to trigger recording of multiple cameras off my Hikvision 7208HGHI-SH/A Turbo Hybrid - doesn't have alarm inputs, hence why I purchased a 2132F-IS IP camera with alarm input. I only have one cat5 going to the camera unfortunately,but...

    Are all ethernet pairs used with 2132F-IS (Alarm and Audio I/O)?

    Video is working well now thanks. One further question: my cable is providing power via a PoE injector. As I have two pairs free on the Cat5, I intend to use one of the pair to power up a mic. Would the injector provided enough 12vDC power to a pair of wires for this purpose?

    Help on conduit sizing for 1280ZJ DM18 back box (UK sizing)

    hi i have bought this back box and have noticed that the compression gland is neither a standard uk 20 or 25mm diameter, looks to be in between the smaller 15mm and 20mm (perhaps 18mm and why its called DM18?). can anyone confirm sizing and if anyone knows where in the uk i can get an adapter...

    Are all ethernet pairs used with 2132F-IS (Alarm and Audio I/O)?

    Hi, Can anyone tell me if there are any unused pairs in the camera's ethernet cable, when the camera has Audio and Alarm I/O? I read that a standard IP camera doesn't need blue/blue & white, and brown/brown & white, but not sure of Hikvision will use both of these for the alarm and audio I/O...
