    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I had read through his issues already. I can't get mine to show anything, but a solid red ring. I've removed the device from the app and tried to re-add it, but the device will not show up. I'm power it off and back on 4-5 times already. The reset button seems to do absolutely nothing.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I think I bricked my EZVIZ DB1. I successfully loaded the LA View firmware on it, but then had the RCA logo show up so I tried to revert back to the EZVIZ firmware. The device has hung up at that point and now has a solid red ring. I've tried holding the reset button for 10 seconds and turned...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Long story short, I finally have my doorbell and chime working. In fact, I've got it working with my original / existing chime. Although it is a digital chime, I ended up having to use the power kit. Second, some patience paid off. It took a good 20 minutes after installing for things to start...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Has anyone tried / has to use the power kit on a digital chime? Just curious if that might solve my issues.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Well new digital chime worked no better, although it was behaving completely differently. It was acting like the new chime was just constantly rebooting. The doorbell had a "constant red ring" around it and we flash off and go back to red almost instantaneously. It just kept going through the...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I appreciate all of the advice and assistance. I picked up one of the compatible electric chime models that is listed on EZVIZ's website from Home Depot just a while ago and will test tonight. I honestly think I blew / fried something on my existing digital chime the second time I hit the...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yes- sorry I forgot to add that tidbit. It is working just fine when bypassing the chime. I think I'm going to swing by Home Depot later and get one of the supported Hampton Bay chimes to test.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I disconnected my chime and wired the two wires together and am getting the full 18V at the doorbell. However, when I disconnect the wires, I get about 8V at the doorbell and get ~10-11V at the chime. I assume this is normal as they add up to be ~18V? Perhaps I just need to get a compatible chime?

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    It does indeed play a tune and I did select Electronic Chime in the app. At that point it asked how many seconds does the chime last and I selected 5. One thing to note is when I pressed the doorbell button on the EZVIZ DB1, the chime ran twice (one right after another). Perhaps this had...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Well you certainly are on to something. I'm getting ~6-7V at the doorbell. Checked at transformer and was getting ~18V. Showing around 10-11V at the chime. The question is why was it working for 5 minutes through setup, etc. and then failed after I rang the doorbell a couple times? I didn't...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I installed my EZVIZ DB1 tonight and everything was going alright until I rang the doorbell for the second time (within 5 minutes of installing). It essentially "powered off" and I can't get it to come back on. My transformer was a 16V 10VA when I originally started. I swapped it out for the...

    New Computer, POE Switch & Dahua Camera Initial Setup

    Thanks; I had already done a clean install of Windows 10. I figured out how to hookup the switch and cameras to the PC and was able to access the camera last night. Sounds like BI is my next adventure!

    New Computer, POE Switch & Dahua Camera Initial Setup

    I purchased an HP EliteDesk SS4 G4 with two ethernet ports, a used Netgear POE switch and IPC-HDW5231R-ZE camera. How / what do I need to do first to get my "setup" up and running? I purchased Blue Iris, but have not installed it yet. Do I need to connect the POE switch to my PC or router first...

    HP Elitedesk SFF G4

    Thanks- found it. Do you know if I use the M.2 drive as my primary boot drive if I can still utilize the dark blue (primary drive) SATA port for secondary drives?

    HP Elitedesk SFF G4

    Got the new PC in. Anyone know where I can find setting in BIOS to have PC automatically turn on after power failure? I can't find it in the BIOS for the life of me. I found "Schedule Power On" and "USB Power On... (or something like that)", but I'm not sure either of those will help with a...

    HP Elitedesk SFF G4

    I'm pretty sure that is the one I grabbed and no it did not go for that price. Not only that, it had $50 shipping on top.

    Found HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF with Intel Core i5 8500 3.0GHz, 8GB Ram, 240GB SSD with warranty for $500. Is that a good deal or should I wait it out?
