My older Qolsys IQ2 panel took a dump after 6 years, so I updated to an IQ4 last week. I've purchased a few door/window sensors (wireless for those unaware) that have terminals for external contacts and I've setup a few around the house to be "monitor only" (i.e. side gate opens triggering...

So I flashed General_IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_Eng_PN_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.1.R.190706 into my IPC-B5442E-ZE from Andy's link here , and now I can't log in? I can do a factory reset at the camera, go through the initialization, get the login screen, but once I add the new credentials, it hangs without...

Not new to Dahua IP cams and have read the wiki 100x. Just got an IPC-B5442E-ZE to augment my system from Andy's Amazon store. Powered her up via POE switch, and all was well. Changed the IP, grabbed the MAC, reset, and all was fine. Stepped away and powered her up again and can't get an...

I want to throw an IR ulliminator next a camera. The cam gets power from my switch and I was thinking of using splitters and wall wart to power the illuminator. How many amps (or watts) can you run through CAT5? And, will this work? Are the "two" power feeds on separate pairs?

Doing some test placements using an HDW5231 and trying to see if a fixed focal would work at each location. What I can't tell is the current lens setting. I've looked at overlay settings and other places and can't seem to find the current focal length listed in the GUI, if it even exists...

Folks, Building a system, and I'm at the switch. I'll have 8 total cameras: (1) Axis PTZ with it's own injector since it has a heater, so skip it; (6) HDW5231R or HDW2231R (or a mix); (1) SD1A203T PTZ. So 7 needing POE. Seeing specs rating them all, say at ~10W, what is the minimum switch...

Hey folks. Been lurking for a while filling my head with modern data and planning a new system for the house. I'm retiring my Win XP system with a Geovision DVR card, 480 tvl cameras, and siamese coax, which was all pretty cutting edge in its day (ip cams just surfacing). It sucks now and is...
