    Recommendations Please

    Hi. The lorex link you posted is a very good system. It is Infact a dahua 4K colour day and night system. Only problem with aliexpress and the likes is the warranty and future updates. Hikvision or dahua will not support products bought on aliexpress or Amazon......... The warranty is only with the person who sold it. And then you could have problems with gray market.
  3. Hi. Rain or snow does not have to have contact with sensor. .... so just sensor under cover will not help I would forget trying to get a pir sensor to work at that distance. I would look at GJD wireless pir heads. Very reliable and last 4 years on one 9v standard battery Mount pir at your gate ..... set detection patern..... also control on and off and schedule from recorder http://www.gjd.co.uk/products/wireless-detectors

    Looking for a budget 1-2 camera starter system

    Hi. What is your budget ? I would also look at 4 cameras being your minimum...... having 4 blocks on your monitor and only two showing cameras
  5. Hi. Going from 850nm to 930nm does not work also 930 will be a expensive IR laminator 930 is always half of what you will get from 850 I would look at just replacing your camera for a starlight
  6. Hi. If your camera works on another cable then the cable that is used once on wall is bad ..... how did you test it ? Also what is the distance of that cable ..... did you make it or pre made
  7. Don’t go SDI ... just wasting your money

    Help finding replacement Outdoor Camera

    Some time, if you already got current camera, you could consider to have enhancement with camera housings with internal infrared. As for you requirements, I think infrared about 30, 50 meter could solve your current needs. LTEV01-R30-Empty IP68 side open camera housing, die casting Aluminum construction, suitable camera dimension (L x W × H): 335 × 100 × 80 mm, w/bracket, w/IR30m, angle 60 LTEV01-R50-Empty IP68 side open camera housing, die casting Aluminum construction, suitable camera dimension (L x W × H): 335 × 100 × 80 mm, w/bracket, w/IR50m, angle 15 http://www.lontrend.com/en/products/camera-enclosures/ltev01.html You can take it as reference, if need more detail, you can contact me by mail: vicky.kuo@lontrend.com Still stupid salesman about. ...... who would put them on there house

    Help needed with CCTV system and which cameras

    Hi. Looks like you are in the uk. 2k is a good budget can even go 16 cam 4mp with that budget. Just a few problems .... BT pole you want to attach cameras ...... will cost you twice your budget in fines ...... you can’t attach to any BT pole in uk. Nothing stopping you from adding your own pole ..... and also within your budget you could have a ptz to cover car park area. You seem to have the outdoors covered. But nothing for internal . Are you a low value warehouse or high.? With your budget I would go 16 cameras

    No video file ? newb

    Hi. Yes you must format on the recorder. If you think of formatting as telling your recorder what to do with it’s data

    No video file ? newb

    Hi. Does your recorder have a hard drive fitted ?
  13. Hi. We need more info. How many cameras and which formats..... you have analog cams listed but using a hybrid recorder. Nothing wrong with dahua .... and as far as going hikvision you have nothing that supports tvi
  14. Guess your a amateur........ a pro would not spam a CCTV forum with your crap

    Dallmeier DMX 2400 - Any info at all?

    Hi. You can’t even give them recorders away. Too old to use and a password is only one problem .... licence is also needed and you can’t get licence it’s too old Did it come with H-drives ?
  16. That would be a waste of 5 hours out of your life and a waste of time for a home user.
  17. Hi. Is your camera connected to the nvr ?
  18. Yes your last post was crap....... it does not happen. But why are you using shelded 18g for power ??? If your using cat 5 for 3 cameras ..... how are you terminating the ends ?
  19. Hi. That was brave to wright so much crap. 1000s of engineers use cat5 in alsorts of environments and not have that problem..... as it does not exist. What size cat5 are you using How many pairs are you using for video How many pairs are you using for power What is camera distance ? Ground loop is mainly coax using cat5 it does not exist so what type of baluns are you using
  20. Hi the head is the pan tilt unit. For something out of a bin you will need to spend some money
  21. Hi. 110v -240v camera and head .... not used anymore and will not work with modern systems. Cam is only 380tvl so the money you are going to need to spend to get control bac and plugs makes it not worth it.
