    Want to use IVS but DM won't disable - Hack

    I've tried that as well but no dice for me........it always gets re-enabled (just for these 2231 cams), hence why I've had to resort to disabling events in BI.

    Want to use IVS but DM won't disable - Hack

    I have a couple of Dahua IPC-HDW2231-ZE that just will not disable the MD. Everytime the camera restarts or changes profile it re-enables itself. I've used IE Explorer, Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Pale Moon.......but they just will not persist. Anyway, to get around it and for those that are having...

    Tree Install

    Made a bit more progress with this and finally have it attached to the tree. Not entirely happy with the FOV. It faces more right than I'd prefer and may re-attach it later.......but it's up. Need to adjust settings but it doesn't look too bad during the day as it is......I haven't even...

    Tree Install

    OK. So I've made a little progress with this. After some thought I've decided not to attach the cam directly to the tree, but instead mount it in a faux bird box to disguise it a bit. Here is what I've come up with thus far. The box is 9mm marine ply, about 150mm square by about 240-270mm...

    Tree Install

    So I did some fiddling last night and this is what I came up with......just trying to workout whether I can get better than this for people and cars.....not really interested in licence plates at the moment for this cam Settings Backlight = OFF WB = Streetlamp Day & Night = B/W IR Light =...

    Tree Install

    Hi Guys, So I got a bit inspired to install a IPC-HDW2231R-ZS that I've had lying around for a while in the cupboard. The inspiration came from a tip-rat doing a burnout on the corner that we live on. I got a decent image from an overview camera (IPC-T5442T-ZE) I have on that corner for the...

    Mini-Review - 5442-Z4E-S3 AKA B54IR-Z4E S3 - Replacement to the 5442-Z4E

    Thanks. Very clever. Can I assume it is next to a sidewalk? If it is, how far away would people be walking past? The other thing is, in which direction does it face. I have a similar intersection that I live on which faces directly west, so the afternoon sun is terrible for the image in the...

    Any chance you have some pictures of what the tree install looks like.

    Neigbhor Saves The Day - Suspects Casing Property/Vehicle.

    If your property is open, by that i mean there isn't a locked gate or say your driveway/front yard is open to the street, there is implied consent until you explicitly remove consent. If you have a sign at the front that says no trespassing or you do not give consent to them coming on your...

    Neigbhor Saves The Day - Suspects Casing Property/Vehicle.

    Interesting. In Australia trespass laws are same same but different. If you trespass on government land that becomes a criminal offence and you'll be prosecuted as such. It also doesn't matter whether damage occurred. If you trespass on private land that becomes a civil matter. No damage...

    Help needed with night time settings

    So, I adjusted the sharpness to values between 20-30. I couldn't see any appreciable difference. I think I'll get another camera while Andy has his sale on. I'll also look at installing an external IR light as well. Thanks for all your help.

    Help needed with night time settings

    Thanks, I'll give that a try too. Just got permission from the Minister for Finance to get "another" camera...... Yes, I've seen that, makes for interesting viewing.

    Help needed with night time settings

    Thanks Wittaj, Reduced Sharpness from 50 to 47......not sure it made much difference. I'm thinking I need more light...... I also re-measured the distance to the curb, it's more like 12m (36ft) not 20ft.......so I'm also wondering if that will have an affect on it as well...

    Help needed with night time settings

    OK. So I have made a few adjustments. I'm not sure it's any better - just different. Although I seem to have gotten rid of the ghosting to a degree and a lot of the noise but it is a lot darker. Trying to brighten the image with gain or gamma just added more noise. Slowing the shutter more...

    Help needed with night time settings

    Hi, I have a IPC-HDW2231R-ZS overlooking the road at the corner of our front yard. I've been trying to dial it in but can't seem to get it how I would like. There are 2 street lights either side of the FOV on our corner of the road and a further street light at the next cul-de-sac. Other than...

    Recommend me a Dahua please

    Mate, if you are planning to install these cameras in a residential rental property in Australia that you will lease out and then monitor who comes and goes you are asking for a world of hurt. In Australia, once you lease that property you have no rights to that property until the lease expires...

    Is my 2231T dead?

    So, I've reconfigured/connected my network so that the POE switch is now connected to my router on the 192.168.1 network and connected the cam to the POE switch. Still can't get to the web gui for the 192.168.1.108 address. Led lights on the switch for the cam is a solid green light but no...

    The ip address was static 10.0.0.11 . I've tried logging into the cam webpage gui and it just times out with "Cannot reach this page". BI just says "No signal"...…..I can log into my other cams and view them in their web gui and in BI. OK, I think I found the button...……..pressed it for about...

    Is my 2231T dead?

    It's been connected for well over an hour. The POE switch led for that cam is constant green. The led for the other cams is solid green and blinking orange.
