    IP Camera keeps going off line

    we have a roof air system that we leave on all week. It's roughly 15 ft away and on a different circuit and breaker if that helps. Out of 6 cameras/locations, this is the only one that does it.

    IP Camera keeps going off line

    I ordered two shielded cables from Amazon which arrived yesterday so I'll swap out the cables this week and see what happens. Ironically, the camera at the opposite end of the room has had no issues. The run is maybe 3 feet shorter but there are electrical cables running as close as is the other...

    IP Camera keeps going off line

    nayr, the problem followed the location. I have the same results with two different cameras so it leads me to believe it's location dependent. Now that you mentioned it, I used shielded cable on all of the outdoor cameras but not the two inside ones. I think I have an extension cord running...

    IP Camera keeps going off line

    I have an issue with a camera going off line then coming back on in a day, maybe 3. My setup is 6 IP Cams connected to a WS-POE-48v60w POE Injector using BI software installed on a Dell server. 4 cameras are outside and 2 are inside. All outside cameras are working fine. One inside camera is...

    Camera selection and placement at campground…continued

    Would you happen to have a camera in mind that would be a good candidate? I have 6 cameras now, all on BI running on a Dell Xeon server. Will I be able to add the new camera with no software hiccups?

    Camera selection and placement at campground…continued

    This is in continuation to a cable post I made several weeks ago. I needed to get some pictures of the surroundings before I ask more questions. This is what I’m trying to capture from a camera mounted on the telephone pole mentioned earlier in this post. I would like to be able to see...

    100ft cat5e cable run_strain releif

    Thanks everyone. I wish there was an easier way though. I guess this is the only way I'm going to be able to see all of that area with one camera. The front door is the main area of concern. The camera I have there now is too close

    100ft cat5e cable run_strain releif

    I’m looking for ideas on how to run 100ft of outdoor cat5E cable from a telephone pole to a building. I would like to use POE so I don’t need additional power to the camera. I think with this length, I will need some kind of strain relief or something to support it. I have a red line from the...

    Facial recognition and camera lighting

    I'm thinking Wi-Fi as well. His site is maybe 1000 yards away so my Wi-Fi connection wouldn't do him any good unless he was trying to access something on my network. The part of the campground we are in is closed for the season. If it’s who I think it is, he has a permanent site in another part...

    Facial recognition and camera lighting

    Unfortunately, I just had a case of someone walking around our RV site with a hand held device. I have 4 cameras and all 4 picked up on him at various stages of his presence. Only problem is it was around 5:30 in the evening so the lighting wasn’t the best. I can see enough of him that I feel...

    Trigger question

    Is there a way to increase the amount of time a recording continues after the initial trigger? I’m not sure which setting controls this if any. Also, I get hundreds of emails daily due to the way I have the alerts setup n four cameras. Is here a way to reduce this and still get important...

    Camera type and placement question

    If you get a chance, could you take a look at the last photos I posted and see what you would recommend for the far right camera based on what you see n the photos? My main concern is the driveway/garage and front door entrance unless you have different idea. Would you still go with the choices...

    Camera type and placement question

    Thank you. I have no issue buying a third camera if it will help. If I install them per your recommendation, where should the third camera be installed and which camera should I use in that location?

    Camera type and placement question

    I’d like to install several cameras at our residence, on the garage and on the house. I’ve already had my car broken into and items stolen while on the driveway so it’s time to install cameras. I’d like to install one on the front of the garage and one on the top left corner of the house. The...

    BI not working after last update. 9/29/2015

    WOW!! What a challenge but I got it. I tried the new install from the BI website but ended up with the same display screen issue. I uninstalled then reinstalled version 4.0.6.0. Put my license number back in and reactivated. Did the import again and this time it worked. All of my camera data...

    Thanks. I'll email support. I work with 3D software at work so the video and audio drivers was the first place I went. Both are up to date. Thanks for everyone's help.

    BI not working after last update. 9/29/2015

    too late. I reinstalled using an old installer and tried to import the backup file but all it does is close the program. I went to see if the update file was still in the folder but the old Blue Iris folder has been replaced. Bummer. Now what?

    BI not working after last update. 9/29/2015

    Thanks. I did the export settings on the main page but I thought this was for BI only and not the cameras. I'll try your idea fenderman. I sill have the old install files. If his doesn't work I'll have to go bp2008's suggestion.

    BI not working after last update. 9/29/2015

    I just did the latest update for BI and now instead of seeing my cameras in the main screen of BI, all I see is my desktop. I can't see or access my cameras. If I reinstall, I'll loose all the cameras settings, correct? I have 5 cameras so if possible, I'd like to salvage my camera settings...

    Additional BI license options

    I would like to run BI in two different locations, on two differentPC’s. I currently have one license. Will I need to purchase the second at fullvalue or is there some kind of discount available? Thanks

    New project. Need a little advice, please.

    I couldn't get the copy/paste to work for some odd reason so I had to manually type it in. I thought I had checked my entry carefully but my "2" should have been a "Z". LOL
