    Installations on older wood siding homes

    Hi. You could use power line plugs to minimise cable runs. Also people alway think cameras have to be installed on the house. Looking at mounting them elsewhere might also be a option for you

    What cameras to buy?

    Okey I see. But how many percent profit can I expect with a reputable company? Hi trying to make a profit from main stream sellers like hik and dahua is going to be hard. Customers can find prices online. Other advice is don't by direct from China you will not get the warranty or support Profit...... is on installation..... no customer likes to see cables in or outside of there home...... and will pay for better install

    HIKVision DS-9016HQHI-SH Issues

    Hi. Hik nvrs are no the best for large installs. Calling cameras with vms ..... is that from nvr or from cameras direct.? I would not let your client spend on more laptops and still have the problem. It would be better building a pc than spend on laptops Build a pc then look at avigilon which hik cameras can run on and send hik nvr back. You existing client PC can be used. After 6 months of problems with hik nvr it will always give problems ... what if they need footage when the nvr desires to have a holiday. Go for avigilon

    Traffic Cameras?

    Hi who owns the street lights Kms will be hard to do on wifi How many cameras ... and who powers the lights
  9. Hi. The SVR1645 is from 2009. Even Samsung does not support it anymore. The direct ip login will also not work for you as it's not supported for the new windows. You would be better off buying a new recorder. Keep existing cameras
  10. Hi. If a ipolis window came up in browser......... How old is your dvr ?

    Hikvision DVR and 3mp cameras problem....

    Hi. Looks like a power problem. Running 1 supply with pig tail is never a good idea. If you can I would run two power supplies 2 cams on each. Problem with 12v 5amp and your cameras being 1amp.........when IR switches you will get each camera drawing more power over your 5amp. Going with two 5amp supplies gives 2amp each camera which covers your 1amp plus surge.
  12. AK357 is the expert on avigilon .....good to hear you got good advice and the help. It is good to hear technical advice from AK357 And knowing avigilon you will be happy.
  13. Hi. I would stick with the standard 850. Or you will be limited to IR distance. With your budget I would look at the new dahua range 4K systems giving you colour both day and night

    RF modulator

    Like I said .... It will not be the modulator ..... The gui is on the screen so it's nothing to do with distance or cable. Did you check the camera connections and power supply
  15. Hi. No need to make favourites. Just click on cam link top left ... that can't be hard. And there is a very good reason why most apps work this way is because some customers like to watch there system while at home or away. There is no point wasting cell internet when at home. So by clicking on cam link they could have say..... home .... for watching while home on there LAN ....away......is cell internet For pc at home .... some people find smart PSS hard to use. Just enter recorders local ip into browser and you get live link with basic control

    Viewing on internet

    Hi. You might not need to pay for a static. Virgin media ip does not change often over a year .... once or twice. I would setup port forwarding with what you already have.

    RF modulator

    Hi. If you have the 4 empty screens up then the modulator is doing its job. As for no screen images I would look at .... first..... have you plugged cameras into the right location on the back of your dvr ? You might have an 8 way and connected to 5-6-7-8 and if your dvr is only told to show 1-2-3-4. Second ...... did you mover camera power supply ..... have you plugged it back in
  19. Hi the 1200 works well ... much better than wireless the netgear is using your existing wiring

    Delay on CCTV feed from IP PTZ

    Hi. I know the dahua and avermedia nvrs give 15 to 30 min delay (Delay playback)
  21. Hi. First of all you need to understand mega pixel..... it is clear in your statement you don't Yes they always have for there large meg pixel...... how can you compare lorex low meg pixel to avigilon large megapixel?? How are you doing the zoom in lorex .... which is a dahua system There are two ways to zoom .... how are you doing it...... it also has zoom after burning off ... have you used that ? If you as a installer can not get a plate from 25ft with a 4mp. (Without zoom then give up on installing). An old 540tvl analog camera will pick a plate at 25ft. Again this points to the install and client training on handover..... You don't want a lecture........ a plate at 25ft with a 4mp camera in the day time is easy ....... you need to check if in fact your systems are set to 4mp also if system is recording at its highest res
