    Dahua ePoE switch + LR1002 converter

    Thanks fenderman. The part that I was confused about was the fact that @Korgoth used two LR1002 and not one LR1002 and one LR1002-1EC or LR1002-1ET. The diagram I found only shows using two different modules. Looking at the datasheets for both makes it a little more clear now. Appears that you...

    Dahua ePoE switch + LR1002 converter

    Looking at this photo as well. The 3 different applications dont show using two of the LR1002.

    Dahua ePoE switch + LR1002 converter

    Thanks for posting this. I am trying to help a friend upgrade some old coax cameras where it is not possible to run new cables. From what I can see this seems like a good solution. You mention above that a Dahua ePoE camera is required but Dahua's site says any standard PoE ONVIF camera will...

    Audio in BI App

    Ah thanks so much that would explain it then. All of my other cameras with audio are outdoors and have basically the same audio. I have one camera I want to listen to (baby monitor) but I like the all camera view. I may just disable audio on the other cameras because its not needed. Thanks...

    Audio in BI App

    Apologies if this has been covered before but I could not find anything with a search. I usually have the al cameras group running full screen on my ipad. I want to monitor audio from one of the cameras but it seems to pull audio from a different camera. I can listen to the audio fine when I am...

    Best Camera for Plates?

    Can you make out the plate numbers during the day? I have the same camera at the end of a culdesac and I can read tags easily. You probably need to zoom the camera in some where the culdesac meets the road. Also your settings for night will need to be configured specifically to read plates. I am...

    Running CAT POE through return air ducts.

    Are you sure that this is actually a return duct? I don't know if anyone else does this but my dad likes to cover up holes in the wall/ceiling with a register rather than repairing the drywall. So maybe that register was just an access.

    Weird issue after updating

    I am experiencing the same issue on two cameras now. Switching to Gaussian also makes it stop. I'll wait to see what smitcans gets back from support.

    New product for advanced features.

    Awesome thanks! I was using an older Onkyo receiver and I upgraded to the latest DirecTV receivers. Everything worked great but when I went to enable 4K resolution it failed because the Onkyo didn't support 2.2

    New product for advanced features.

    Exactly....I am not sure about other providers but I do know DirecTV requires 2.2 (at least for 4k).

    What do you use for a Router? Need replacement advice

    I bought a Unifi edgerouter at first but then purchased the Unifi security gateway (USG) because it integrates with the other Unifi products. I would go with the USG. Edit.....since you also need wifi grab one or more of the Unifi WAP's as others have advised. I am using the AC-AP-Pro.

    Dahua Cams - Change Subnet - No longer work with NVR

    Are all of your cameras identical? Are they directly connected to the NVR or external POE switch? If everything is working except for 3 cameras it seems like you did everything correctly and there is just a problem with those three cams (obviously).

    LPR Walk Through / Tutorial

    I just installed my IPC-HFW5431-Z5 and so far its working well. Still need to fine tune my settings. Day time no issues on full auto. For night I tried the 1/2000 shutter speed and it seems to work well. Camera is at full zoom and pointing straight up the street. I am at the end of a culdesac.

    BI & Routers vs Switches

    It sounds like your old DSL router may be your dhcp server. What do you have connected between the netgear switch and the internet? Do you have a modem or a modem/router?

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    No need to worry they work fine with h.264 and Blue Iris. Blue Iris does not support h.265.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Bullet Z5 7-35mm (IPC-HFW5231E-Z5)

    That's what I understand too. I guess what I am saying is that I think the 2mp will be fine for me and require less tweaking. Thanks

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    You dont need any junction box or additional mount for this camera. So yes you can mount on vertical wall.
