Hello, I’ve got an old iPad on which I run dmss and have this in a frame next to the front door and we can see and record whoever walks up our path. However the IPad keeps switching off when it needs to be on! Ask this question and everyone will say you just have to go to the auto lock settings...

Don’t know why these are appearing as new posts when I’m clicking post reply and not post thread ?

Hi this is great just what Ive been looking for. However read further down my replies and I’m thinking - it might be cheaper and easier as well as more reliable to just use a PC with blue Iris?

No very little if any 8mp cams, just 3 SD52C225U-HNI PTZ units which I got first and am still pleased with their performance today, + then just a mixture of units eBayed as and when found. See piccy

Hello I have a DAHUA NVR 5216-16P-4KS2 which I bought from Andy back in 2018. It has become unreliable during the last few months with multiple problems, crashes, and having to wait forever to select items and failures to record being just a few! So I want to purchase a new up to date unit. I...

Almost asking the impossible but I’ve acquired 2 dvr’s which are branded XENO NITRO XHDART which have a manufacturing date of 2017 and are analog - yes I know not IP but need as much help as poss. They are as new but when booted up they both need a password so obviously been setup before. The...

Hello everybody! I’m hoping this question will in turn help out lots of other people but need to find the answers first and this is proving harder to find than I thought. What I want to know is, is there a list somewhere of all the best practice settings on an iPad that you need to use in order...

Hello everybody, got a quick question to ask everyone cos somebody I’m sure has done this already… and hello moderators, please feel free to move my post to somewhere more suitable if necessary. I would like to take out my peep hole or my spy hole and replace it with a peep hole camera that...

That's It SORTED ! Thanks Guys

Hello to everyone reading this, I wrote this 2 weeks ago and submitted my problem under NVR’s. However nobody has replied so I thought I would put my request for a solution here where seemingly more people might read it as cameras attract more people than maybe NVR’s do? A problem has now...

Hello and greetings to everyone reading this, haven’t written a post for absolutely ages, I guess that’s because when everything is going well, you just leave the system to do it’s job which it’s being doing brilliantly for a couple of years now, until now! A problem has now occurred with the...

Yes, infact I have 3 of them and have never regretted buying them. Makes fixed cameras boring because it’s great to watch a subject come into view and see how the camera autotracks them and what they get up to lol. All I would say is, depending on your situation it’s very possible to miss what...

Hello, I have had 3 of these SD52C225U-HNI PTZ cameras for about a year and a half now and have to say I'm very pleased with their overall performance. Previously had switched the IR lights off on the 3 cameras and also upgraded the firmware but this didn't work out so eventually managed to...

Hi and thanks for these suggestions. I have checked the wiring, checked for dry joints and checked for anything else that looks out of place – but everything looks ok. Point to note though, in my connected camera collection, I am using three SD52C225U-HNI which are PTZ and autotrack, and do...

Hi can anybody point me in the right direction for the ' latest ' firmware for this camera. I know it's an old Dahua IP 2 megapixel camera, the existing firmware being 2.210.0000.0.R, build : 2013-03-13 Can't seem to get the plugin to install properly and therefore cannot view the camera...

Hi everyone, need an urgent diagnosis of my DAHUA NVR 5216-16P-4KS2 please. A couple of days ago, I noticed that none of my 11 cameras were being displayed on my tv having a long hdmi cable from one to another. Went into the log and it stated that all cameras had disconnected at the same time...

Well, an update really, not that there's much to report, in that tried to rerun the latest firmware again but they are not having any of that. So options are now limited...

Hi, yes I’ve reset both cameras to factory settings via signing into the camera, In fact I did it three times in a row with each camera, I felt that if there was just a few bytes lingering around then this approach might wipe them - but to no avail unfortunately. Don’t know if it will allow to...

My saga continues - it's become a bit of a hobby really. Those who read my previous posts know that in December I bought a Dahua SD52C225U-HNI from Andy and to be honest Ive spent hours fiddling about with it and it's been one big positive exercise summed up by the first one pieces of advice I...

Hello everybody, does anyone know how I can have auto tracking on in the day but switched off at night. There seems to be a fair few settings that have a schedule but not auto tracking which just has an on/off toggle and the time in seconds to follow whatever it's following. Auto tracking has...

Ps that's true dedication to the art of ipcctv, hope you didn't freeze too much lol

That's absolutely fantastic of you thanks It will come in extremely useful for where we live. I'll give this technique a test drive in the next day or two. I've got another same model PTZ camera coming in the next couple of weeks so using another to trigger I think will be very helpful. Thanks...

Hi Jmcu. Thanks for your reply. I find it incredible that a manufacturer can make something and just have basic instructions with no guidance on the finer points of its product. If this guidance does exist, then it certainly seems to be top secret or at least not translated into English. I read...

Hello everyone, I do hope this post fits in with the subject of installations, cos this part of the forum seems to be where most people read and respond to - and in a sense, I'm still trying to install it! Treated myself to a Dahua SD52C225U-HNI from Andy and now one month on, I think it's the...

OMG!!! That's only gone and done it! Tangent you are the absolutely don. thank you so much. That's made my day and it hasn't even started yet. Onto my next mission which is autotracking and getting the camera to zoom in much further then it does by default, something that has been mentioned a...

Hi, yes my NVR is branded Dahua Device Type:DHI-NVR5216-16P-4KS2E Web Version:3.2.3.95223 Onvif Server Version: Onvif Version: 2.4.1 System Version:3.215.0000001.0, Build Date: 2018-03-26 and the camera is unbranded System Version 2.623.0000000.1.R.E4.2512.3S.NR, Build Date: 2018-06-27 WEB...
