    IVS by Recorder

    I have just set up a test for IVS by recorder and I was able to get the IVS to trip when I turned down the sensitivity to 1 and have both directions enabled. It was not very reliable and only tripped a few times, I also tried to turn off the target filter. It definitely does not work as good as...

    6AE830VNI Setup

    This was a top of the line PTZ just a few years ago but compaired to todays PTZ's this is EOL. It does have a great image with a good zoom, although you may not be able to view this cam with a newer browser and may need to use IE as the FW updates has been long been abandoned. This was my...

    EmpireTech NV41AI-8P-4KH or NVR8CH-AI

    It is always best to enable the AI on the camera and you will much happier with the NVR8CH-AI. FYI the 8P with have the PoE switch in the NVR and all the camera cables will need to go back to the NVR and the non (xP) you will need your own PoE switch to power the cameras.

    DMSS on android live view camera sequence

    I do not think you are able to save the live view sequence the way you want in the dmss app like you can in the NVR layout. You have to remove the cameras in the NVR camera list and then add them in the order you want them to appear. You can then choose what NVR is on top.

    Dahua AcuPick

    I have been testing, installing and playing around with the new AI AcuPick feature on the new nvr's / cams for a while and my opinion for home use, it is worthless. I would not upgrade for this feature alone. It does work for a higher mounted camera, I have just not found much use for it even...

    Using smart PSS (or DMSS) to move the wiper

    No Aux for me either, do you have the latest PSS version? The older PSS required a aux # and you can use it in the NVR but I forgot what it was..

    How to access camera Dahua archives now that IE is dead?

    Here is a easy way to put IE back on windows for older FW that needs it, use at own risk as IE is "no longer with us" not dead. :) Make a new text file on desktop and paste - CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application").Visible=true change the "Save as type" to "all files" , save as : whatever.vbs

    how to mount cams to drop ceiling?

    I like to use the Arlington CAM-BOX, they work great and they look good too, ~$15. You need a 4" hole saw and by code you need to use the wire to tie the box/camera to a ceiling tie down in case the ceiling tile gets wet and falls.

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    I have a 49225 right next to it and this mini tracking is much better, tracks much longer and like you said does a good job around objects. The focus on all of my smaller PTZs work the same, they are not completely focused unless the subject stops for a second while tracking or if it has clear...

    @looney2ns Thanks for the great review as always.. I have had the mini for a while and don't seem to have the same issues as you noted, mine are a little different.. The focus issues on this cam looks ok to me and with the FW update I was able to get the edge (SD) recording to work as normal...

    Questions re new setup from Andy

    To see the motion detection "marks" on the timeline you have to select (motion) in the storage / schedule confiduration page on the NVR as well as having it enabled for each camera under alarm / video detection / enable. You can also select snapshot in the same menu (next tab at the top) to see...

    Interface from NVR output voltage to a 110V light

    Not sure what NVR you are referencing but you can trigger a light with the alarms, but the relay is only rated for 1 amp on the Dahua 52xx-4ks2. Some of the NVRs have output power, I think the older ones do. The video I made was for a stobe/ siren at 12v. the specs show 125v / 160w @ 3:45 for...
