    Review-OEM IPC-T2231T-ZS Ver 2, 2mp Varifocal Starlight Camera

    Thanks for the review. Will this camera work with ONVIF on a Hikvision NVR?

    Univivi IR Illuminator 6 Leds

    10ft approx. from the ground. I wouldn't recommend for that because the illumination angle is wide, you'll need something like this: IR Cannon w/Adjustable Focus

    Hickvision Setup Issues

    When you connected the camera directly to the router, did you connect a 12v power supply? Since most routers do not have POE ports so the camera will not turn on. I suggest you connect the camera directly to the laptop and assign a static IP, then use SADP and see if it detects it.

    Any suggestions on a wide-angle coverage IR Illuminator

    Univivi has another model with 4 LEDs, similar in size to the one you have. Check it out: https://www.amazon.com/Univivi-U03R-WideAngle-Degree-Illuminator/dp/B00M3NHCC6/ The illumination angle should be the same as the one with 6 LEDs that I have, but as it has fewer LEDs it will have a little...

    Univivi IR Illuminator 6 Leds

    It will turn on and off automatically, the sensor is at the rear, to the left of the power cable outlet as you can see in the second image.

    Any suggestions on a wide-angle coverage IR Illuminator

    Check this Illuminator I've installed recently: Univivi IR Illuminator 6 Leds It has a very good cover angle, and according to product info on Amazon the size is 4.9 x 4 x 4". I did not measure it before installing it but I think those dimensions are correct.

    Intrusion Detection

    Yeah, D1, D2, D3..etc. are the channels, you should trigger only the channel of the camera you've configured for intrusion detection, if you select other channels it will record these other cameras too even if they do not have intrusion detection enabled. As @tangent said, you should record...

    Dahua H2.65 IPC-HFW4431R-Z 2.8mm ~12mm

    No, it doesn't have audio inputs or internal mic.

    Intrusion Detection

    On the NVR (web interface) go to Event -> Smart Event-> Select your camera and under Linkage Method make sure Trigger Channel is enabled for that camera. Also, "Motion | Alarm" will not record intrusion detection, you will have to change to Event.

    Dahua H2.65 IPC-HFW4431R-Z 2.8mm ~12mm

    At night this camera performs better than Hikvision 2CD2032 Config: 3DNR@50%, Shutter 1/25, WDR/BLC/HLC OFF Only IR from the camera. IR from the camera + Univivi IR illuminator installed on the other corner. And for comparison here an image from 2CD2032. Second image has IR from other...

    Change stream on local live view Hikvision NVR

    For some reason the NVR didn't like the H.264H codec from the camera, I changed it to H264 and enabled Smart Codec and automatically the NVR switched to the sub-stream.

    Univivi IR Illuminator 6 Leds

    I've installed one Univivi Infrared Illuminator, 850nm 6 Leds 90 Degree Wide Angle to improve the night vision of my Hikvision 2CD2032 camera. The box was not damaged, however the bracket came slightly folded on one side, as you can see in the second image. Anyway the construction quality is...

    Change stream on local live view Hikvision NVR

    I've changed one of my Hikvision cameras to a Dahua camera connected via ONVIF, the problem is that on local live view displays the main stream and I can't find any option to change to sub-stream. When I say "local live view" I mean the monitor connected directly to the NVR, if I access from a...

    Dahua H2.65 IPC-HFW4431R-Z 2.8mm ~12mm

    I received mine too! Good quality camera (housing and bracket are metal, I expected plastic because I had read it in a feedback comment, but it seems that wasn't true). Zoom is fast and it's possible to adjust it from Hikvision NVR using ONVIF, also works on iVMS-4200. Let's see if the weather...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    What a difference! Seems that this camera has a very good potential. Can't wait to see how it performs in complete darkness. Thanks for sharing.

    Hikvision DS-2CD2055-I 5MP Any Good?

    Yeah, but the problem is that those small drone cams suck at night. You can install a 4K security camera and have an amazing image quality during the day, but do not expect too much quality at night if you do not have good illumination. I prefer to have better image quality at night than to...

    Hikvision DS-2CD2055-I 5MP Any Good?

    Can't see any 5MP mini bullet on Hikvision website, it seems that 2055 is a chinese version. Anyway there is no way it will have better night image than the 2MP.

    DS-7604NI-E1/4P v DS-7104N-SN/P

    7604 has much better hardware than 7104 and can handle up to 6MP cameras. I bought mine from Hi Secu (http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/A4ftuTA) shipped from USA, seems there is no stock available to send from USA right now but anyways has better price than the seller you've posted...

    Do you like or dislike any of these? Yes, no and why?

    I've ordered one IPC-HFW4431R-Z last week from the same seller on the first post. As i don't need it urgent i sent it via ePacket. I'll post some footage when it's installed.

    Can you disable the IVMS-4200 motion detection overlay

    Analysis for motion won't appear on live view from web browser if you don't have Rules enabled under Configuration -> Local And iVMS-4500 doesn't support that function yet so they will never show up.

    Can you disable the IVMS-4200 motion detection overlay

    Pretty sure it's not any of those options, so I think the only option is to disable it from the camera. To do that uncheck "Enable Dynamic Analysis for Motion" under Event -> Basic Event -> Motion Detection
