  1. Hi. Yes you have to buy for the camera ..... It also does the power so you need the right connections on the rj45. But at $19 each ...... It is best to just buy cameras and use the existing cables There is no point spending $19 on each camera that is only 380 TVL plus the problem you might have with the cameras being 100ohm....... CCTV is 75ohm For an extra $2 https://www.amazon.com/Amcrest-AMC960HDC36-W-Weatherproof-coaxial-included/dp/B00YZF8D28/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1506375551&sr=1-6&keywords=CCTV+960h+cameras+amcrest

  3. Hi. You will need the kit to alter ....... But at $19 each I would buy one and take it apart to find the pinout then make your own
  4. Hi. Old analog Samsung ..... No IP cameras involved. How many cameras have the rg45 plugs ?? It can be done ....but the problem with the old Samsung cameras is there 100ohms It might be better to change the cameras with the rj45 and still use the existing cable

    CCTV Sytem recommendation

    Sorry I should have mentioned I'm from the UK. Thanks for the response though I would start by giving Henry at CCTV42.co.uk a call. Good guy and will give you lots of advice. Don't think so
  6. Hi. You are best posting pictures of what you have. It sounds like some of your cameras are on baluns.... But need to see pictures
  7. I take it your only here to advertise. Read my first post to you ... yes direct replacement. Laview don’t make ... they just rebadge. So your old system might not be the same as there new one... so you might have to re learn. Don’t let something as little stress you out
  8. Lasts 18 months and your happy to buy that brand again ...... As far as learning..... how do you know ? Since you will be away ... remote apps are easy to learn.
  9. Hi. 720 is the low end ..... look at 1080 You can just replace your dvr with this and still use your existing cameras and replace later https://www.lorextechnology.com/security-dvr-and-surveillance-dvr/lhv2000-series-high-definition-digital-video-recorder/LHV21081TW-1-p Or this as a complete system. https://www.lorextechnology.com/hd-dvr-security-system/4mp-hd-camera-home-security-system/MPX2K88-1-p
  10. Hi it started last week...... hik have posted a ivms update as of yesterday. But I would look at a 3rd party remote app for your customers and use new passwords and ports .... also remove 80 port forwarding New hik app I guess will only have a few days before that has problems as well. Not good for your customers and I would change which recorder you use

    Rate this surveillance system?

    Hi. State of the art system as they state on there website. 720tvl was in 2011 No ONE installs analog anymore. Did you even ask who makes it Ask for a link to there dvr app see how that is. Up to now I give them a 1
  15. Go look back in forum about 10 years...... Been to China many times.........I buy direct from a name brand. Cameras has got smaller and neater........which is something customers look for Your swan camera has gone backwards ...... Not something I would or could sell to install in a house ..... It's ugly CCTV is CCTV If people want gas detection .......then my advice is to use something that is fit for its job. Gas. carbon monoxide Alarms I would surgest using a brand name device which ARE proven life saving devices.
  16. Well that did not take long to admit your a spammer You might be swan ..... but to use a package design and logo from a real company like Swann...... just shows what kind of company people are best not dealing with. So basically it's like adding extra to your system........the same as using a standard system then adding alarm sensors for gas / motion / alarm A holiday ...... China or myrtle beach... myrtle beach wins

    Basic Domestic CCTV - How?

    Hi. To value safety then recording is important...... If you can't look back after a problem it's pointless. Colour dome with IR and a dvr is not going to break the bank. As far as getting picture to her tv .....you would use the existing cable so place the dvr by the tv. The black / white box you talk about ... Will not work with new smart TVs. But most smart TVs now have p in p ....picture in picture so you only need to connect dvr to a HDMI input.
  18. Hi go to local recordings ...... then press select in top right of app .... then click on which files you want to remove .... then click the bin at bottom right on app
  19. Hi what are you connecting it too. Rs 485 out is all you need if direct to camera

    BOSCH MIC Cable type 12 core

    Hi. Shelled multi core ...... But you need to say which model you have to work out the gage. 12v or 24v
  21. Hi. Yes it is simple ...... connect dvr to your router... then go into menu of your dvr and select guide from the menu. Follow instructions ..... if you don't have qr reader on your pad then download xmeye app onto your pad . At app setup click local or if you want to view from anywhere click cloud

    New system.....new questions??

    Hi if using sequence the two not used channels must be switched off. To give it a smooth switching. How is the 2k image
  23. This is not the first time a company has tried to build an all in one camera with fire or gas detection. Someone even built smoke detector into a standard light bulb. None worked Your listed system ........ 90% of people install cameras outside so why buy a 4 cam gas detect system Then your pir detection .... no setting at dvr only at camera..... hence why no one has fitted one before ..... with everything built into camera how do you turn the functions off via dvr siren built into camera. All these functions on a outdoor camera is something no one wants. Pointless If you want cctv ...... buy cctv If you want house alarm ..... but a house alarm Gas / fire detection ....... buy a good brand trusted detector But ..... why would anyone buy from a cctv name that copy the Swann packaging design but only change the name This crap system is from ....... swan Removing a N from SWANN . Does not make it a Swann so no the posted system is not in Costco like you state
