    Malware in EmpireTech IPC-Color4K-T webplugin.exe

    Correct, the key word here is, "when using Internet Explorer". That plug-in was required for Axis Cameras that were being viewed with internet explorer. As stated in my previous post, Axis added support for Google Chrome and Firefox in 2017. They did not remove the ability to view Axis cameras...

    Malware in EmpireTech IPC-Color4K-T webplugin.exe

    That's incorrect. Axis typically provides firmware updates on their cameras for about 10 years after the release of the product. Or according to their website, 6 years after the product is discontinued. The camera I purchased for my front door (Q3538-LVE) has Axis OS support until 12-31-2033. So...

    Malware in EmpireTech IPC-Color4K-T webplugin.exe

    I've used a handful of Axis cameras, Axis speakers and Axis Modules. I have never had to use internet explorer with any of those devices. All of them worked properly using Google Chrome without having to download any type of plugin or extension. I also recently attended the Axis Certified...

    Opnsense with Dahua NVR

    I don't think there are any specific settings on Opnsense for emails. Did you put the Dahua NVR on a separate subnet or VLAN using Opnsense? If you created a separate subnet or VLAN on Opnsense, did you create a firewall rule to allow traffic to pass? If its anything like Pfsense, you have to...

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    Where did you purchase the 20p? It should've come with a installation and setup guide. Here is a link to an online version- Honeywell Vista-15P/Vista-20P - Install Guide - Dated 3/15 Rev. C

    Searching for a router that has a common DHCP and supports VLAN

    I've also been using Pfsense for a few years and like any software, there's going to be something to gripe about. However, I disagree with you that Pfsense CE is not important to them anymore. Pfsense CE has received multiple updates within the past six months including updating OpenSSL to...

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    Did you install the 12v backup battery on the Vista 20p? The system will not function properly without the battery attached. The vista also uses the battery to help power the sirens during an alarm. In regards to the siren making that noise, did you connect the 820ohm bell supervision resistor...

    Axis P3717 warming up

    So this cameras was installed within the past few months? This camera is discontinued and replaced with a new model. What Axis OS version is the camera running.? I would recommend updating to the latest firmware (Axis OS 11.xx) and factory defaulting it. The only reason I wouldn’t update to OS...

    Axis P3717 warming up

    I'm assuming its the Axis P3717-PLE? Is it installed indoors or outside? What caused the message? Did it randomly show up or was it after a reboot? Does it still display a live image?

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    The B-connectors are going to be used anywhere you need to splice a wire (I forgot to mention you need a good wire stripper in addition to cutter). I suggest reading the install manual for the vista at least once or twice before you attempt the install. Also, there are numerous install and...

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    The Honeywell 5853 is wireless, the FG-730 is an old model hardwired glassbreak. I added up your max aux power draw and you're going to need an aux power supply. The maximum aux power output a vista 20p will provide is 600ma. 1x ADC SEM MAX= 230ma 1x 6160rf MAX= 150ma 1x 6290w MAX= 290ma 1x...

    Is BI acting weird for anyone else? one camera sees a truck other 3 cameras see nothing?

    I noticed this problem within the past year or so. This issue seemed to only affect cloned cameras. When a camera that has a clone reboots or drops off the network, the second or "cloned" camera in BI will stop responding when the camera comes back online. Rebooting the BI computer will solve...

    IPC-Color4K-T180 Intermittent 'No Signal' in BI

    I would agree with @wittaj. The only switch that looks reputable is the Cisco switch. I've never heard of the Mokerlink switch so I looked it up on Amazon. It's claiming it can produce 400w and its only $119.98 which is really cheap for a 400 watt poe+ switch. I wouldn't trust that switch...

    IPC-Color4K-T180 Intermittent 'No Signal' in BI

    This sounds more like a network issue rather than a compatibility issue with a specific camera. 54 cameras is a lot and when you have that many cameras you need to carefully design your network and VMS server taking into account the total bitrate from all of the cameras. In order for us to...

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    I believe the ISC-BDL2-WP12G is the Bosch motion detector with 100lb pet immunity. Just make sure you pull up the manual and install it exactly to the specifications otherwise the pet immunity might not work properly For hardwired smoke detectors I would recommend the System Sensor system...

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    The Envisalink 4 has a "shadow mode" which allows it to be installed along with a Honeywell LTE/IP communicator. So I believe it'll also work with the alarm.com module but I can't be 100% sure. Bosch also has a good line of dual tech motion detectors especially if you don't have any pets and...

    Honeywell Vista 20P Shopping List

    I replied to your post in the other thread comparing two different system (Qolsys IQ Pro and Vista 20P). I prefer the IQ Pro over the 20P but if you want self-monitoring with the Envisalink than you need the 20p. Keypads- Honeywell 6160 for standard keypads or Honeywell Tuxedo or 6290 for...

    Home Security Systems

    My recommendation would be to go with the Qolsys IQ Pro. The IQ Pro supports hardwired and wireless sensors and is based on alarm.com. The wireless sensors are PowerG which are two-way encrypted with frequency hopping. Frequency hopping will make it harder to jam the signal but can't entirely...

    NDAA Compliant Cameras

    How many cameras do they need for this installation and what's their budget? Are you a channel Partner for Axis or are you going to work with anyone who is? If they have the budget my vote would be for Axis cameras. They have 5-year warranties with firmware (Axis OS) support for about 10 years...

    Home Security Systems

    I would disagree saying that monitoring isn't needed solely based on living in a low crime area. The crime still happens, just not as often. There still can still be spikes in burglaries or a burglary crew traveling thorough the area. I'd rather have it and not need it. Not to mention these...

    Home Security Systems

    If you're looking for something with self-monitoring without a monthly fee then your best bet is the Vista 20P with an Envisalink 4 module. The Envisalink 4 module is a 3rd party device that connects to the panel via the ECP bus and connects to your LAN via an ethernet cable. The module will...

    Which Router to buy in 2023? UPDATE went with OPNsense on a firewall box.

    I would still verify your hardware is not faulty. I've used pfsense on the UFS file system before and it did not become corrupt after a power failure. However, I do recommend switching over to the ZFS file system when you can.

    Which Router to buy in 2023? UPDATE went with OPNsense on a firewall box.

    That is NOT normal. I would be worried there is a hardware issue with the box you bought. I have multiple pfsense boxes installed using the ZFS file system and they've all abruptly lost power due to it being unplugged or an outage. I've never had one not boot up after a power fail. If I were...

    NVR or server solution for mostly axis

    Those are some pretty low resolution cameras. What are some of the model numbers of the cameras? Do you know how old they are? You're not really giving us a lot of information to work with. What are the intended purpose for the cameras? Will someone be watching the live stream constantly? Do...

    NVR or server solution for mostly axis

    I agree, you're probably better off using Axis camera station. With 75 cameras I would suggest using two or more servers to spread to it out. The cameras resolution, bitrate and FPS are important when deciding which hardware to purchase for the servers. Before making any purchases, I would...

    Video/image Quality

    Under base server profile set it back to streaming profile 0. In UI3 click on the gear icon on the bottom right. Select "2160P 4K" but make sure its not the one that says "2160p VBR V4". What is your bitrate set to for streaming profile 0?

    Video/image Quality

    Assuming you're using UI3, click on the 3 dots on the top right corner, click on streaming profiles. click on the 2160P (4k) options and make sure it's using the streaming profile that you increased the bitrate on. Also, make sure the user account you're logging into UI3 with is not restricted...
