Best practice - put dummy load on unused wifi when removing antennas?
Nah, not necessary. First of all it's wifi, we're only talking a few milliwatts. The lower the power the easier it is for the device finals to deal with reflections/SWR. Second, it's a consumer device. They're designed to be used by people not versed in the physics of RF. Your average Joe...- taz420nj

B58IR 1/1.2" varifocal coming soon? Plus mounting/DORI questions
@EMPIRETECANDY So I finally got the T54IR-ZE-S3's I bought from you installed, and I have a few minor issues.. Overall I'm happy. They do a great job in the available light without IR using @looney2ns setting suggestions (but I am going to add an external illuminator to make it better at... -

PTZ5A4M-25X Ultra Smart 4MP 1/1.8" CMOS Starlight 25x Optical Zoom POE+ IP PTZ Camera Support Auto Tracking 3.0 and IVS is an OWL???
You can try putting a piece of mass-loaded vinyl between the house and the mount. Make sure the screws go through it, and tighten them down snug but not "ugga dugga" tight with the impact driver. The idea is to decouple the mount from the house and damp vibration as much as possible to keep it... -

dahua VTO2101E missing uploadable mp3
If I understand the system correctly, the message function is in the VTH, not the VTO. I just set up a VTO2311 with my PBX system and IP phones (I don't have VTH units) and if I don't answer, the PBX handles the messaging (at the moment it doesnt take a message, it just says "The call was not... -

have dahua NVR, can you run second monitor 30m away?
HDMI splitter + HDMI-over-CAT5 adapter should work for you, assuming you have an unused Cat5e run. Otherwise you'll need to use a HDMI-over-IP set which are unfortunately much more expensive.- taz420nj

Tailscale and Blue Iris help please.
Tailscale in simplest terms puts your remote devices on your LAN network as if they were connected to your home wifi. So to access things on the LAN, you simply use their local address/hostname as if you were home.- taz420nj

VM settings for BI on Unraid
I have an Unraid server that I plan to set up Blue Iris on rather than buy another dedicated computer. The server is a Ryzen 9 5950x with 32GB RAM and a 42TB array. No GPU. It is primarily a low-user Jellyfin media server but I already have a couple VMs on it as well. I set up the BI demo in one...- taz420nj

Villa Doorstation VTO2311 with IP phone
Anybody? Because there's now a plot twist... I had only tried pressing the button on the doorbell, getting the "Calling, please wait" followed by "The call was not answered".... For shiggles I tried dialing 8001 from the phone, and it actually called - and I got audio and video... But the... -

Villa Doorstation VTO2311 with IP phone
Ok I finally have all the parts together to dump Ring, just got my package from Andy, and I'm having some issues. I have the BI demo running and all the cams talk to it (I'll probably have more setup questions about that later), but I can't get my IP phone (Grandstream GVX3370) to register on... -

Help Needed: Issue with Dahua VTO2202F and BFT A400 Gate Opener
Weird gremlins show up when logic circuits powered by separate supplies mingle together. Either power the VTO off the gate opener transformer using an appropriate buck/rectifier, or isolate the contacts using an optoisolator/relay -

About to pull the trigger - a few questions...
Ok cool. So just a couple more questions about the ones you recommended.. They have all the same AI features as the 4K? Since the other ones have obviously been out for years, does the 4K have like better hardware specs that makes the AI run better (Wildcat made a mention about the 4K not... -

About to pull the trigger - a few questions...
Oh I didn't mean it would be something done all the time requiring constant database work... Current uptime on that server is like 9 months as of now, but outages tend to happen in the summer here. :lol: I was just wondering if BI was capable of importing non-native files to where it could... -

@wittaj Ok fair enough.

About to pull the trigger - a few questions...
Ok I wasn't sure how these do the recording. I figured it would be just a constant FIFO loop like a car dashcam (which don't seem to have recording issues, even on the dirt cheap ones - so it's odd that these would)... Good to know it's configurable though. Can BI take "imported" clips from... -

Ok first off, I don't want you to think I'm trying to argue. I'm just trying to understand and maybe it's not clicking with me, and maybe I'm not being clear with my intentions... But I never said I wanted to do as big an area with one camera as possible.. I didn't even consider the 2.8mm... -

About to pull the trigger - a few questions...
I live in a second floor apartment. I can only install things in my own space. I can't put anything on the downstairs neighbor's area or on common areas. So that limits me to the railing (still 14 feet up) or the eave. No way at all I can get it at 6-7 feet or any closer to my parking spot... -

About to pull the trigger - a few questions...
Im not following... Wildcat's review for that camera at 3.6mm puts Recognize distance at 80 feet and Identify distance at 40 feet... 6mm would be higher. Another video I saw of it showed you could read a license plate at 50 feet using digital zoom.... That shed is roughly 65 feet away - my... -

(Paging @EMPIRETECANDY to this topic, as I have a couple questions direct for him as well :)) When I originally joined here years ago I had my sights set on some Dahua cams and Blue Iris. I needed to do cams on a very limited budget, so I was entertaining all options.. Ring was doing their... -

Spite Trampoline Removal Project
I don't see how it could, unless he really is a closet pedophile... People here of all people should know that there is absolutely no expectation of privacy outdoors. There is also absolutely no legal basis to force someone to stop photographing or recording anything in public from their own... -

Spite Trampoline Removal Project
When the kids are out there, go out with your phone/video camera and act like you are recording them. Lick your lips and hold your crotch while doing it. Bet they start keeping the kids inside at all times. They might even move to get away from you. -

Time to choose my poe switch...
True. And unless your home internet speed is 100Mbps or higher, or you transfer files between computers, you wont need gigabit. However, you say your rather "buy new".. rather than spend a hundred bucks on a used one.. Keep in mind those used switches cost a couple thousand dollars when they... -

Time to choose my poe switch...
Watchguard. Yes, it is running pfSense. And yes, those are for the VLANs. I could have put them all on one port but it was just easier for me to structure it that way. Exactly. Look how many ports are populated for my 2BR apartment... :D I haven't gotten around to it yet but the fans in... -

Time to choose my poe switch...
Mine has been in use for 3 years now, no problems. Before that I had a 3Com 24 port PoE managed switch in use for 6 years. I had also bought it used on eBay for about $30. Only changed because I needed more than the two gigabit ports. This Nortel is all gigabit. -

Time to choose my poe switch...
My recommendation is aways to look on eBay for used enterprise pulls. They are workhorses and will still have plenty of life left in them, although you will probably want to replace the fans. They are managed, so you can do VLANs to keep your traffic separated, and have PoE available on all... -

Security drone
Actually your state has no say in it. The FAA considers drones to be aircraft, and it is illegal under federal law to do anything to cause damage to someone else's drone. We're talking fines into the hundreds of thousands of dollars and up to 20 years in federal PMITA prison. If you use a... -

Ethernet Ends
It's not really abuse. It's only being flexed a couple times during knotting, and technically the knots are of acceptable radius, but the real issue would be the pairs are split wrong. Orange is way longer than green, and brown is way longer than blue. Had brown and blue been used for the...- taz420nj
