    Identify Camera

    Thanks, I'll check the base of this camera that I have already taken down for my piece of mind. For one of the houses, II was able to go back into emails with Andy, and the (8) cameras I purchased for this location are HDW5231R-ZE cameras. It was really more that I've not noticed this before...

    Identify Camera

    Sorry, I may not have been clear, I have NO interest in upgrading the firmware since I have no issues with the cameras. What I'm hoping to do is upgrade (replace with newer models) some of my cameras themselves. However, rather than pulling out the ladder and climbing not only my house, but...

    Identify Camera

    I'm sure this has been discussed, but the search seems to turn up too many hits with the keywords I'm using. I'm looking to upgrade some of my older camera, and when I try to identify some of the the cameras, they don't show a model. Using the Dahua config tool, some show up as the model, some...

    DH-IPC-A26 Died Is There A Better Replacement

    I've been using the model IPC-A35 for just that purpose inside the house (have it in 3 rooms), been very happy with it, and one of the few 'wireless' ones that don't just vanish off the wifi network (two locations I just can't get a network cable to)

    Detect what model camera is it?

    The weird part it various cameras. I thought maybe I applied a firmware update to them (the ones that don't register), but this one above was just unpacked on Sunday (was purchased last year though).

    Detect what model camera is it?

    The ones that do identify are the same major firmware, but vary on the .xx.X firmware. (Part of my wanting to do note this is so I can know what each model is so I can update firmware). The ones that don't vary from age and model (some turrets, some dome, some bullet). Just so strange that...

    Still same results. Here's one of the camera's that won't identify:

    Detect what model camera is it?

    Is there a way to detect what model camera a particular camera is? I have a lot of them (almost 20). When I run the Dahua Config Tools, it does display SOME of the models, but others are just listed as "IP Camera" not will it display the version number. I guess it would also be more correct...

    Black Friday Discount From Andy

    Just having a chance to update, I took advantage of Andy's generous offer, to place an order big enough to finally replace my HIK cameras (I honestly have WAY too many cameras for my house :), and I freely admit it. There's banks with less coverage than I have in some of the corners of my...

    Black Friday Discount From Andy

    LOL! It's usually a discussion I can avoid, she never notices the outside cameras, but move something on a shelf and it's all questions! :)

    Black Friday Discount From Andy

    I had been using the HIK cube as interior cams and been quite happy with them. However, I wanted to try the Dahua version, but the A35 also adds in the PTZ functionality. Personally, I think it's a much more discreet looking camera. Where the HIK cube is quite noticeable, the A35 is a...

    Black Friday Discount From Andy

    If you mean WiFi, he does carry some models. I just picked up the IPC-A35 (in house, PTZ) that I'm running wirelessly and will likely pickup a few more (and I have no idea how he does it, it arrived before I even had time to explain to the wife why we need ANOTHER camera. :)

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    What if you swing your camera up more? You're capturing the actual door it self appears and the entire landing outside your door, but you really need to just capture the traffic coming up TO the landing. The IR appears to be hitting around the area of the bikes. If you move it up more...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    I'm going through the same thought process. I have some areas where I still like the option of moving the camera, however in some areas, I'm turning off the IR on the Dahua, and using the camera that's there simply to generate the IR light. This way, I remove the false positives from snow and...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    a number of Huisun V2 PTZ's, Huisun and some legacy Hikvision bullets and domes. The PTZ have been fun, but the failure rate, and other issues developing with them, I'm just ready to toss them out, and just been waiting for a decent replacement (I did fall victim of going from the V1 to the...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    Nooooo....it's can't be better than the 5231's! I just started replacing my cameras with them! :) Actually, great review! While I love the improved image, to be completely honest, there's only 1, maybe two locations that would really benefit from it, so using the 5231's to replace all...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    My (3) 5231R's were waiting for me when I got home last night (Thank you very much again Andy!), just in time as another Huisun PTZ decided to end it's service this week. Now I just need to wait until this weekend to get up on the ladder to replace them. The PTZ were fun, but while a nice...

    x10 V2 Night Focus

    Sorry if this has been discussed, but I didn't see it. I've noticed on my x10 v2 camera, that the night images are great (better than the V1), however, they are just a bit out of focus, but if I bump the zoom just a bit, the camera will refocus jsut enough that the picture is improved. I...

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    Hmm..I may need to pick one or two up, I have some areas I need a wider view then then x10 would give me (the x4 I got was awful, so just left those areas with the v1 x3). Guessing the 'improved' x4 is on his store, or is it a request only?

    Web plugin not work

    At least with me, in Internet Explorer, I had to put the IP in the "Compatibility View" list as well as adding it to Options - Security - Trusted Sites to get the live feed to work.

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    I purchased two of them. One has a pretty good night image, the other regardless of what I do looks like you're watching a UHF station with no antenna. I figure I'll keep the one that is working well, and replace the other with a x10 or a x3 V1 (I like the wide view in this location so am...

    How is 4.3.2.0 So Far?

    Server 2008 R2, and I can't run as a service. I had upgraded to 2012 but was having other issues, so I can't speak if the issue continued since I've since reverted back to the 2008 image, but it makes me wonder if it's a chipset issue rather than an OS one. It's annoying as I'll often find...

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    Thanks! I just gave the firmware a shot. Everything seems to be working, but I notice that my webpage version doesn't match the PDF (everything else does). Program version: V2.0.1. Build 201603031830S Control Version: McuF0_V1.0.0_build20151202 Webpage version reports: 1.1.1 Build...

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    I had an issue with a v2 x10 camera and Melissa had me ship it back to them for repair and reimbursed me for the cost of the shipping as soon as I provided the reciept. The cheapest I could get it back to them was $68. I was amazed at the price difference FROM them vs back TO them. Except...

    Mini PTZ v2: Focus adjustment hidden feature

    Helping my friend troubleshoot the the x4, the firmware caused the blur, but the focus fix did work on the focus issue. However, at night the lens seems smeared (it was like this before the firmware), it's really noticeable at night, when lights move across the lens, so going to go up the next...
