    Huisun PTZ motion detector not working at night

    There are a bunch of Hikvision PTZs on Amazon, PTZ but not a bullet, $149: https://amzn.com/B01HXJSV9C Bullet but not PTZ, $155 https://amzn.com/B01GZIZHVW I don't need PTZ, it doesn't need to be a bullet. I just want 5x zoom (I can fix and lock this in, don't need to change it remotely)...

    Huisun PTZ motion detector not working at night

    @klasipca Thanks for the guidance. At this point it sounds like even the v2 Huisun PTZ may not have reliable night time motion detection. You say "spend $500+ and get a Dahua or Hikvision PTZ". I see a bunch of Hikvision PTZ bullets starting around $120 and up. Again it's feeling like a lottery...

    PTZ v1 motion detection seems overly sensitive or blind with not much in between

    Can anyone confirm that v2 fixes motion detection at night time. Specifically I have a camera pointing at my driveway/the road beyond about 50-100 feet away. The v1.0 captures nothing between dusk and dawn. Cany anyone with a v2 confidently reassure me that the v2 is the fix I need?

    Huisun PTZ motion detector not working at night

    Thanks - I had searched but I had specifically been looking for "motion detection" and "night" which didn't turn up these threads.

    Huisun PTZ motion detector not working at night

    I have a v1, but without working night time motion detection it's proving worthless and has missed multiple crimes occurring. Is there a firmware upgrade that makes the v1 deliver what was promised in this area? What random claimed functionality from the v2 doesn't work? (or is this like a...

    Huisun PTZ motion detector not working at night

    I am really about to abandon this camera as I cannot find settings that make a simple matter of night time motion detection work. I've fiddled with the motion detection sensitivity. Really need a camera that meets these criteria: - high enough def to read plates that are 50-100 feet away...

    Huisun PTZ motion detector not working at night

    I'm noticing that my Huisun PTZ motion detector happily triggers during the day time but at night it doesn't get triggered - and I know there are cars driving through it's field of view. I think I have it zoomed in about 5x (half way) of the full 10x capability on a street where cars drive past...

    Huisun 10x LPR (License Plate Reading) settings

    Some dumb but obvious questions: (1) SENSITIVITY: Is 1 the least sensitive and 100 the most sensitive? (2) SETTING THE CAPTURE ZONE I have cars driving towards the camera from left to right. I'm hitting an issue where the Huisun triggers the moment the car comes into view when it's the most...

    Changing Huisun Mini PTZ IP Address

    Solved my issue - even though you can login to the camera using a Mac and it appears to function except for seeing the video screen, you actually must login using a PC with Internet Explorer. Then all the fields start to populate and work.

    Changing Huisun Mini PTZ IP Address

    Having similar issues. Had to switch my router to 192.168.0.1 from 192.168.1.1 so that it could find the camera on the default IP which was 192.1680.99. I want to change the IP address of the camera to 192.168.1.102 so I can put my router back where it was on 192.168.1.1. HOWEVER the Huisun...

    Huisun 10x LPR (License Plate Reading) settings

    Without BI, even if the detection isn't perfect, does the supplied Huisun software let you send a photo via FTP when motion detection occurs? Can you identify on a grid places where motion detection should ignore - e.g. foliage blowing in the wind? (Again not using BI but rather the supplied...

    Huisun 10x LPR (License Plate Reading) settings

    I'm not planning to use Blue Iris. I'm hoping to get by without it. Hopefully the motion detection is not that bad. Instead I am hoping that on motion trigger a photo can be sent to an FTP site on a server that I have paid hosting on I hope to create a cron job that throws new photos through...

    Huisun 10x LPR (License Plate Reading) settings

    I was directed to this thread as I've been trying to get an inexpensive LPR camera set up. The Huisun 10x LPR sounds just the job. QUESTIONS: (1) I've found the camera for sale from Huisun's vendor's Ali Baba store in China- is this the best source, can't seem to find others? (I'm in the US)...

    Looking for LPR, or fallback LPC outdoor cam for under $300

    I'm looking for an outdoor wireless IP camera that captures the license plates of cars as they drive past my house for security. The house is set back about 25 feet from the perpendicular street, which is a one way street. The camera is mounted 15 feet high over the front door. Cars drive past...
