Help - new system setup (e-seenet.com)
tomcctv replied to Grendel's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
New software October 2017 Your link is old .... so not working .... what problem are you having ...... it’s not working. Are you in the uk ? Static ip is better and safer. Your dvr will supply you with the viewer .... you don’t need to go China server to use it -
Help - new system setup (e-seenet.com)
tomcctv replied to Grendel's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Hi. Why use a China server to connect to your own system Also the address you are using is down anyway. Use my-ip at home to find your IP address and try that on your pc away from home -
Hi. That is a pointless system ..... just think about basics ..... rechargeable cameras....... so for hours your camera has been taken down just to charge it. Means no protection while on charge What are you going to do if you go on holiday or spend a weekend away. You can’t Evan add other cameras to that system other than the recharge cams...... new idea but useless Take a look at this one https://www.lorextechnology.com/hd-ip-security-camera-system/4-channel-hd-security-camera-system-with-ip-cameras/HDIP44D-1-p

Hi. Auto tracking PTZ cameras are a waste of time and they miss most of the footage you might need. Your system is 720p analog HD so that camera would not work on your system.
-
Hi. There is not much advice when you have such a low budget. Look for a lorex ip based system. Also use a nvr ..... going with SD card will limit your storage and like you have said you have traffic on two of your cameras and that will fill your SD in no time

Did you answer the questions

Using flexible flat cable or bare cooper for analog camera?
tomcctv replied to Roman.CA's topic in System Design
Hi. Cable is not for cctv .... 75ohm you need Paint over cable is going to look a mess plus terminating at ends is also going to be a mess Use cat5 and cover cable with moulding -

Rolling Camera Picture
tomcctv replied to WiseSolutionLLC's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Hi. Sounds like a phase problem. How far is the pool house from house ... with you having two cat cables can you not use 1 cat for the 3 cameras and the other cat just for power. -

How to run video and electricity for 1000 ft run
tomcctv replied to blkblts's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Hi what format of camera did you install at the gate -
You mean posted wrong drawing ..... you still can’t do rs485 on the drawing you sent
-
Wow you just don’t give up do you ...... look at pan and tilt it says 220v. Also ptz head supples camera voltage which as you have seen from your spec is also 220v Low and high voltage together is not spec now as heads now are either 12v or 24v and has common protocols and rs485 and you can pic them up for $40 - $50 That head is too old ...... any tech guy with any sense will buy a new head instead of looking at spending on manchester box or vcl control unit See the spec you posted pan 220v tilt 220v
-
Yes your new ..... it tells you the voltage in the diagram 220v And you can’t control that with rs485 that head is too old for rs485 It does not even have the hardware for rs485 it’s too old Link power for camera to be attached is also 220v which is not used no more and hasn’t for over 10 years. Your tech support for a company that started back in 2005 Why is it so hard to understand that head is too old and does not conform
-
You must be new to tech support Again head unit you listed CAN NOT be rs485 controlled without control box ..... 220v is none compliant anymore on head units And like already said it’s cheaper to go new ptz than to buy a manchester box or control box ...... and your also going to get stuck when it comes to the protocol

iDMSS Plus - Door Unlocking button Digital Out/In
tomcctv replied to yeswife's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Hi. Are you looking at unlocking a door ?? You will need to build a door lock relay. The door icon you have is for dahua door entry control -
Hi. 100m what type of power supply are you using

Neighbor surveillance including my property
tomcctv replied to Brewsky88's topic in Security Cameras
Hi. Always two sides to a story you say your next door are not happy about what you do in your garage. You will know what the complaint is as you have had letters off next door and landlord and police But you don’t tell what it is you do in your garage. Next door now have a camera looking at your garage he has probably been told by police to collect footage and make a log of anything going on -
You can also say no to a customer ...... why do something that is no longer allowed...... that’s the point in electrical code. For a tech guy ..... is it not simpler and better business practice to just buy a new head unit.... something with rs485 and be able to use hd or analog camera instead of using old 220v analog cameras How will you control the head and camera ...... dvr or pc or controller.
-
Hi. Your first post says your tech support RS485 is just a relay box ??? No relays used it’s a digital signal Your head does not even have RS485 and is listed as 220v only Again it’s too old and not to regulation It can be done with a control box (Manchester box) but the cost makes no sense when you can buy a ptz cheaper
