A few years ago I added some additional IP cameras for a customer. The cable was supplied by the customer, it came in a white box, no name. I ran a couple legs, about 200 feet each, all of the outside runs were in 1/2" EMT to provide protection from the weather. I recently got a call that one of the cameras quit working, the brand doesn't matter here. I tested the camera with my Triplett tester, the camera checks out ok. I checked the cable for discontinuities with both my Triplett and Fluke, somewhere inside the conduit, about 86 feet from the camera I found three opens, some as much as a foot apart. I've run many thousands of feet of cable in my life and have never seen defective cable. Tomorrow I pull the cable from the conduit and strip the jacket looking for physical damage, but that will be tomorrow. When a company manufactures 1000 foot spools of cable, is each of the eight conductors a continuous length of wire, no splices? I know I've seen even Belden multi conductor jacketed wire with splices once in a while, inside the jacket, would never have known that. So back to my question, it's hard to believe that there are no splices on 1000 feet of multi conductor cable, if there were not, I think there would be a lot of wire going into the recycle bin. I think I'm going to find splices near the discontinuity, the break could be because of brittle solder connections, thermal expansion/shrinking, etc. My TDR only shows reflections from the opens, no noticeable changes in impedance. Has anyone else seen this problem? It's a first time for me. In case somebody responds and the message doesn't get forwarded to me - emptech@surewest.net Jim

Unable to login to NVR with correct password
Skolp posted a topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
I'm dealing with an issue where I can no longer connect to my Hikvision NVR through the web interface or iVMS. I've verified that the username and password are correct—the password is stored in a password manager and has worked consistently. For testing purposes, I tried changing the IP address using the SADP tool. Interestingly, SADP accepted the same password that doesn't work when trying to log into the NVR directly (via web GUI or iVMS), so I'm sure the credentials are correct. The username is the same one I use on another NVR at a different location without any issues. Since the last restart, the NVR has also stopped responding via Hik-Connect (device is reachable from local network, but as mention above - I'm unable to log in to them) I attempted to download the recovery file through SADP, but received the error: "Failed to get the key. Device timeout. Record its model and software version and contact manufacturer." (shown in picture bellow) I've tried contacting Hikvision support multiple times with no success. Any suggestions on what else I could try? Thanks in advance! NVR: DS-7108NI-Q1/8P SW: V4.30.080build 210412 -
i have 8 foscam r2 cameras and i used to be able to use the search tool v4 to log onto them and then keep 4 tabs pinned to the top in windows so i could click any one and vire it and pan and zoom real easy. but we had a house burn down and so i got 8 more foscam r2 cameras and now for the life of me i can't get that app to run these cameras. i even did salvage 4 of the other cameras and tried to connect to them and when the search tool tries to open one i get an error message that tells me i need a app to allow them to run. it will sometimes try to download that app called ambraXXXXXX but then i get a message telling me the app is running and will not continue. i found the apps location and deleted it and even use garys app to find it and uninstall it but again i get that same message. so i got foscam to send me the newer vms app and i can load the cameras into that app but it seems i can only get 8 cameras to load even though i seems to have 16 or more camera slots. so i guess i can get used to that vms app but then i need to figure out how to get more than 8 cameras to show. unless there is a good camera app that will let me not only see the cameras but will let me configure them.

SV3C B01POE-3MPL-A Can not See camera in a small screen only Screen 1
DarrenA posted a topic in Security Cameras
Hello, I bought one of these cameras to maybe replace a failed one in our cam group. Got a good Deal on it so thought why not. Never used one of this Brand before so totally new to its setup. I found another Software package and it DOES see it, I programmed it and my NVR does find it and produce picture..... ON main large screen only! If I move it to another of the smaller screens the video goes black. Is there a setting to fix that issue? XVR is a XVR501H-16-S2 and camera is a SV3C B01POE-3MPL-A -

Vivotek cameras with OnVif movement detector (not working)
GiovanniG11 posted a topic in General Digital Discussion
Hi, I moved from Vivotek IP system (Vivotek cameras+Vivotek VMS free software) to a Dahua NVR, there is no possible with any Vivotek model to receive OnVif triggers about movements, it looks Vivotek uses a property protocol to work with its VMS only. Do you share this? There is any way to trigger Dahua NVR record on movement? Thank you! -
Hi, I can't find it, only Hik vision.. In particular I would now differences between DS-I250M(C) and DS-I250L(D), apparently the case and IR vs LED backlight, but I would know exacrly what this M(C) and L(D) mean. Thank you a lot

The security system includes access control system, alarm system, and video surveillance system. These three parts work separately, but they are also interconnected. The linkage of security systems is to transmit more accurate alarm information, take timely stop loss measures, and make the security system more efficient in ensuring safety. For example, intrusion detectors are linked to video surveillance. When someone is detected breaking in, the video surveillance will pop up a screen, and the app will receive an on-site video of the alarm. Fire alarm detectors can be linked to fire-fighting equipment, and when smoke or flames are detected, the sprinkler head will be turned on. Glass breakage or vibration detectors or other audio devices are linked to video alarms. When abnormal sounds are detected in the monitored area, the video surveillance system will pop up a live screen and send the video to the mobile app. How is the traditional alarm system linked to video surveillance? There are two common ways of linkage. Hardware wiring linkage and software protocol communication linkage. Video surveillance NVR normally has up to 16 wired alarm input interfaces, which can be used to connect infrared beam, intrusion detectors, etc. For places where monitoring is the main focus, NVR can be used as the central linkage alarm and access control system for the security system. However, for places where detection and alarm are the main focus, NVR cannot meet the requirements. Whether it is residential security or commercial security, all types of safety hazards must be monitored 24 hours a day and promptly alerted. Therefore, you may need to use numerous security detection and alarm devices such as door and window detectors, intrusion detectors, outdoor infrared beam detectors, vibration detectors, smoke detectors, gas detectors, water leakage detectors, and sound and light alarms. Most of these alarm devices are wireless and easy to install. Therefore, the security system that links access control and video surveillance with the alarm host as the center makes the installation and use of residential and commercial security systems more flexible and convenient. EAVS-2506 is an integrated security controller of alarm video using H.265 video compression. The host supports six POE channels for HD network video access and multi-channel wired, wireless, and bus defense zones. Built-in 4G network module and TCP/IP network module, double network communication, stable and reliable performance. With HD monitoring, intelligent anti-theft, two-way intercom, intelligent home appliances, remote control, centralized management and other features. Widely used in residential areas, villas, families, shops, supermarket chains, office buildings, enterprises and institutions and other fields, all-round protection of personal and property safety.

vedardalarm replied to Darrenh's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Hi! I found guide on Hikvision website and think you may need to download the tool software at https://www.hikvision.com/en/support/tools/hitools/cl7f0143d2c781a3e3/ Then reset password and active it. -
Burglar alarm + CCTV
vedardalarm replied to Koksmanareikals's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Hi! I try to answer your question. I am not familiar with the device you have chosen. But general burglar alarm center and cameras can be linked and meet your requirements. Link the driveway camera with nearby motion sensor or front door or garage gate sensor and set into away home area. Well, there is new device with alarm and cctv integrated with app push for alarm with picture. That would be convenient. -
Counting people
Mark_M replied to all solution's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
It is not reliable to use standard security cameras to count people, because you will have issues double counting. Look into buying stereo people counting cameras which mount above each door/entrance. In management software this will state the number of people inside (or inside zones) when configured correctly. Examples: Brickstream people counting cameras. https://www.teledynevisionsolutions.com/solutions/machine-vision/people-counting/ Or Dahua people counting cameras: https://www.surveillance-video.com/camera-dh-ipc-hdw8441x-3d.html -
Good day experts, I couldn't find solution that counting in people in big mall using several ip cameras for against duplicate. Please offer me some idea or if existed related A.I github project. Any suggestion?

Power Over Ethernet issue IPCAM Model number C6F0SoZ3N0PdL2 camera
fixit9660 posted a topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
I'm trying to get a C6F0SoZ3N0PdL2 camera to run on POE, in Midspan mode as it’s too far from the NVR. I have a local POE injector working perfectly powering an Acti D72 camera, but the C6F0SoZ3N0PdL2 doesn't want to know. I'm getting 48 volts on pins 4 and 5, and 0 volts on 7 and 8 of the Cat5 plug. It works fine over the Cat5 with local power from the supplied 12v adapter. Anyone else got these working on POE, or any help appreciated please? It's running V24.1.41.16.3-20241105 firmware. The camera is PTZ camera branded SV3C from Amazon, TPKDirect from AliExpress, IPCAM, and others. -

I would like to pull the UDP or RTMP stream from my Dahua IPC-HDW5449TM-SE-LED but I can't figure it out to save my life. I'm using smplayer and vlc as clients. I get video fine with rtsp://admin:password@10.2.5.50/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0 ... but HD streams are consuming too much bandwidth with all the TCP shenanigans. Anyone advise?

Hey Phil! I completely recognize how crucial it is to monitor your daughter's horse. I would suggest looking into products like Reolink or TP-Link if you're looking for a dependable CCTV system that fits inside your budget. They have choices with pan-tilt capabilities and accommodate SIM cards. I've discovered some good discounts in the past, but it can require some research. I hope you discover the ideal setup for the safety of your horse and wish you success!

The same camera is cheaper on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003518327717.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.11.16a64db1ITSxTu&algo _pvid=9284ed58-0e96-4a44-9416-81d7f699b26e&algo_exp_id=9284ed58-0e96-4a44-9416-81d7f699b26e-5&pdp_npi=4 %40dis%21NOK%21573.93%21396.01%21%21%2149.00%2133.81%21%40211b441e17368714982972092ed887%21120000261480 33219%21sea%21NO%212855867178%21X&curPageLogUid=Pp5Rc2Wv9EEE&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A You can use third party NVR. I myself have an NVR from AliExpress and it works with all the cameras I have. Looks like the camera you are thinking of buying is from the same factory as some of my cameras.

It has now been running for 5 months without any problems and it is very easy to use. (You must also purchase a hard drive and a power supply 12v2a). It is not a good idea to buy a hard drive on AliExpress!

This post is about how I solved a close-up focusing problem. Hope someone can benefit from it. It was a bit foggy and rainy here yesterday. Then what is near became blurry, and I tried to zoom in and out, but then it only focused clearly at a distance. Then the weather improved, but the camera still wouldn't focus at close range. My solution was to wait until it got dark outside, and turn off the Ir Led on the camera. The background then became darker than the area close to the camera. Then the camera would focus on the close-up again. Today with daylight it still focuses correctly.

Hi it can be just sat on the ground but it only takes two screws to secure to a wall just to stop it being moved … your existing power supply (12v 10amp) with splitter would be running hot the one I listed won’t

Hi. This is the wrong way to power cctv cameras ….. infact one faulty camera can damage all the rest first thing to do is install a suitable power supply the type that protects each camera with its own fuse or electronic cutout something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/HAILI-Output-Supply-Switch-Distribution/dp/B07SV1W15G/ref=asc_df_B07SV1W15G?mcid=ea352f6f096735d1909f4ed7427c5755&tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696451130813&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15917231825901991530&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046494&hvtargid=pla-826178894569&psc=1&gad_source=1#immersive-view_1735407912808
