camera model?

[cams2007]

without having to climb up into the roof of the house to inspect the camera is there a way to tell what model dahua camera it is? is there a way to tell from the serial number?

If it's an IP camera, you can check it on its web interface.

meant to edit my post after. that's what i thought also unless i am looking in the wrong area. my other dahua cam says the device type under information then version but this one does not.

Enable ONVIF and use ONVIF Device Manager.
Check identification and find if model it is correct if not check what firmware it has, after that you can search for model

That's the correct area.
But this looks like a Dahua OEM model as opposed to straight Dahua.
The Dahua logo is missing.

I have 21 Dahua cams and only a few actually list the model number in the firmware.

I have searched the Dahua site with the firmware version and it comes up with nothing. Also did a general search and didn't get any good results. Will try the ONVIF Device manager if I can't find the info. Thanks.

It may be, not sure. I thought that I had purchased it from Andy but don't have the order history in my Amazon account and can't find my paperwork. doh!

This is an easy reply - Look where you purchased it from and get the description

My other Dahua does, would make it simpler for my bad memory.

That is probly what I'll do if the ONVIF Device manager doesn't work. Andy said if I sent him a photo he could tell me.
