What exact Model of PTZ?
Why did you mount your other cameras so high?

The high cameras are only overwatch cameras on the sides of the house with no lower windows. There’s only two that are high.
Dahua SD59925U-HNI is the PTZ.

@Cameraguy my backend is different than yours. For example, once I go to settings tab - there is no PTZ.
there isn’t even a settings tab - it’s setup.
seems Dahua has updated this since you’ve done your video?
see attached photo for my screen.

Additionally, @Cameraguy - I've been able to figure out most steps - but once I get to add a rule, intrusion - when I go to draw the rule, it will not allow me to draw on the screen.

@looney2ns Do you have experience with these active deterrence cameras from Dahua? I have model IPC-HDW5541HP-AS-PV at the front door - and no matter what I do - once I turn a tripwire on to send me a push notification to my phone that someones at the front door - and someone crosses that tripline, it sounds the alarm. I can't even figure out where to turn the alarm on and off? I do not want the alarm - only the trip wire for push notifications.
when I try to log into each cameras IP address - it will not allow me. It will only allow me to login into the NVRs IP address through the chrome extension.

meh I like them to stand out a little. I think the best avoidance to theft is blatant cameras directly in your face.

Use the cameras own web interface, not the NVR's.

Edge won't work.
Chrome with the IE Tab extension installed will work.

When I input the cameras IP address, it will not connect. Only the NVRs IP address will connect.

Again, you need to login directly through the cams own web gui.

Using broswer, Log into the NVR via it's web interface. Open cam registration in the NVR, In the cam list, there should be an IE symbol in that list. Click it and it should connect to the cam directly in your broswer

actually, take that back. If I click that IE symbol - this is where it takes me. If I click connect it does nothing.

Correct. That symbol. Does nothing. Have downloaded IE plugin for chrome. Now restarting computer to see if that helps.
