    WTS 1 Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231E-Z12E

    This camera is currently selling for $182.39 from Andy. Why would someone pay $200?

    I bet I have something that you don't have.

    OBTW, the ipcamtalk store page is misleading. It shows the Cat5e/6 Cable Tester costs $9.99. However, when you purchase (the link takes you to AMAZON) the cost is $19.99 on AMAZON. RodeoGeorge

    Man Sleeping In Truck Overnight In Front Of My House

    I have searched for the forum thread in which the PTZ DH-PTZ1A225U-IRA-N was discussed, and cannot find it. I am considering this PTZ, and want to look over any reviews and installation info. Can someone please post a link to the forum activity on this PTZ? Thanks RodeoGeorge

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    To set up a PTZ call from a fixed camera, go into the setting and set up an IVS Event. As an example. After the IVS Event is created, put a check mark in the "PTZ Activation" box and select "Setup" You can then select the camera and PRESET that you want activated when there is an IVS Event...

    STARVIS vs Starlight ?

    Actually 2.5" Hard Drives are quite affordable. About $160 for a 4TB 2.5" Seagate Barracuda. RodeoGeorge

    I think it's time that Andy does a special pricing for his most popular cameras for the members of IP Cam Talk. He can post the special prices here on the Forum, so that we can take advantage of them. RodeoGeorge

    5231- External IR Help

    I finally had time to install the Tendelux BI8 IR Illuminator. While it does fill in the peripheral areas, it does not cover as far out as I'd hoped. Here is a daylight shot of my back yard. Here is the night shot BEFORE the BI8 was added And here is the night shot AFTER the BI8 was...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    I am very pleased with my SD49225T-HN, in that it provides the needed additional view when IVS activity is detected by the fixed cameras. The one thing that I'd like to see changed is the minimum idle time when it does go to a preset other than the Park preset. Currently the minimum is 1...

    Timeout on NVR Connections

    Thank you very much. Works like a champ when using the monitor at the NVR and the NVR UI. I don't know why I didn't think of using "0", as that works on several things like the Hibernate and Sleep times in WIndows. RodeoGeorge

    Timeout on NVR Connections

    I tried a USB keyboard when I first set up the NVR, and it was not recognized by the NVR. I also tried a keyboard without a mouse, and still no recognition. I might try that again now that the system is set up. RodeoGeorge

    Timeout on NVR Connections

    Thanks, I have that at 60, but many times I come out to the shop hours after the last activity. Like I said, just a pain to enter using the on screen keyboard. Hoping that someone wrote a script, or found the location in the firmware to change the time. RodeoGeorge

    Timeout on NVR Connections

    I access my NVR both through the NVR's UI, and through a LAN connection when I'm in the computer room (NVR is in the shop). In both instances there is a timeout on the connections. Has anyone found a way to remove or bypass there timeouts? It's really a pain when I go out to the shop to...

    5231- External IR Help

    I have one of the BI8 inbound from Amazon. Bought it because of the 90 degree beamwidth and the range. Should be in by the weekend, and I'll post my opinion when installed. RodeoGeorge

    PTZ or other?

    @stevep I use the SD49225T-HN with my NVR5216-4KS2 and love the combination. It should also work with the 2KS2E. RodeoGeorge

    Dahua PTZ over-voltage - recoverable?

    I think that if there is any hope of reviving the Cam, it is if a component very near the input voltage has been compromised. I'm speaking of something like a reverse voltage protection diode, a zener diode, or a current limiting resistor. These components "should" be easily found by tracing...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    I posted about my SD49225T-HN going to a white screen a while ago. After restoring it to the settings that I had saved, I noticed that it was not focusing correctly, and in some instances not focusing at all. I went into the Settings>Camera Conditions>Focus & Zoom and tried several things like...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    I had a heart stopper this morning. Checked the recordings (several called by moving to a preset based on the activity of fixed cameras) on the SD49225T-HN since midnight and all video was just solid WHITE. I could see the PRESET overlay on the video, but no video itself. Step one was to...

    NVR5xxx Firmware Released on 201712

    @Crazykiller if you install this firmware, please post what improvements/changes you see. Also what NVR you installed it into. I have the NVR5216-4KS2 and I am interested. RodeoGeorge

    Pre-trigger needs to be set to 10 sec to get triggered recording

    I find PTZ rather useful. I have 2 PTZ cameras, and several fixed cameras. When the IVS on one of the fixed cameras is activated, that camera calls the PTZ cameras to a preset that also views the area covered by that camera. RodeoGeorge

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    You are absolutely correct. When I went back to the SD49225T-HN page, and then to the support>firmware section, only the V2.600 was listed. I must have gotten lost the last time when I found the V2.622 version. Easy to do on the Dahua sites. As near as I can tell, the V2,622 is only for the...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    And now there is an even later version than the V2.600 that has been discussed. On that site there is now a V2.622 with a 12/26/2017 file date.

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    I see that it is only 33kb, as opposed to the PAL and NTSC which are in the neighborhood of 27Meg. Does the PTZ upgrade only overlay the PTZ portion of the other upgrades? (In which case it should be applied after the PAL/NTSC upgrade.) RodeoGeorge

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    Thanks for that. Did you unzip the file and then use the .bin within? I didn't think to check the file dates within. I'll do that now. RodeoGeorge

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    To the experienced, these are probably dumb questions but I don't want to muck it up. 1 . Do I unzip the files and update with the .bin? 2. I notice that the NTSC and PAL are version V2.600.0000.2.R, and the General is version V3.02.93.R. Since the General is a later version, should I...
