  1. Hi. It's call remote view when going back to your dvr. Off site cloud is something recorder manufactures add as a service . Your supplier has only changed the name on your dvr. They don't make it or give you the cloud service. You could always build your own local cloud ..... Units with 4tb are cheap enough now . I am specifically looking for a company that provides cctv DVR uploading cloud service to backup my DVR HDD on a live continual basis. Do you know of one ? There are lots out there ..... But all have high costs and no guarantee of having footage when you need it .... But think about 3rd party cloud ...... Giving your network to a company you don't know. Having monthly costs . And not so long ago ..... I'll try and find the thread .... A cloud company posted all its customers links on a webpage for anyone in the world to watch .....3rd party cloud is no good and a waste of money . Do your own cloud storage and keep it local .
  2. Hi. Yes most are made in China .... But the one listed is a US seller so returns are cheaper for you ...... Not many people get there money back from China. There is no point going HDMI with a analog PTZ is just expense you don't need. AV 3 on your tv will be enough. But yes you need a controller .... The same seller has them for $60 If you do want HDMI then your best option is a cheap dvr with HDMI out .... The benifit with this is you don't need a controller as the PTZ will then be controlled by a mouse. And it might not be a benifit to you but with a dvr it is recording at the same time ........just in case your farther catches somerhing exciting

    ptz installation

    Hi. I think you are right as in power at night. Tour + IR + zoom is when the PTZ is drawing it's max power. And with your PTZ being at its home position is also a sign of loss of power or lack of it. But if you look back on your footage most PTZ when they go into home mode also display the PTZ settings on the screen. For a quick test to see if power ..... Do a temp setting and have the PTZ stay in one location and also not allow it to zoom and then see if you have the same problem next morning. Also for future ref home setting is built in to the PTZ and on most units you can change the home setting ...... I would change it to looking at your car or front door which is better than at the ground
  4. Don't worry if you can't find UI or menu that some people could. Some menu/configuration settings could only be accessed by someone with over 30 years of experience in the field. We don't have those kind of years behind us and these special configuration menus tends to hid themselves from us. Just do a search on past replies, you'll see that other like you had been told about interface or setting that they couldn't find despite spending countless hours on it. " title="Applause" /> Btw, you don't have to listen to me. I've been told by experienced person with over 30 years of experience that I dished out bad advice even though his advice doesn't work. I have no idea what you are talking about Don't worry he is just the forum China spam King

Something is wrong with you ... Think it's time you went See how your signature got edited .... Will not take long to do the rest . If you need to have a go on every one of your childish posts then you are not needed on this forum ... Now grow up you child Would it not be better to help than be a problem in a post .... Do you not understand how a forum works ...... Or like the other post your talking about ...... Do we have to take it to private pm so as you can't get involved again.
  7. Hi your unit comes with cloud option
  8. Hi moxa will work with avigilon
  9. Hi. With a low budget you are looking at no name brand. But I would say with your budget buy from your country don't buy from China direct.. ( it will cost you a fortune to send back ) if any problems. But here is a quick look on eBay which is in your budget ..... You will also need to see if they have a controller as well. I would connect to a AV port on your tv http://www.ebay.com/itm/1200TVL-HD-SONY-CMOS-30x-Zoom-PTZ-IR-Dome-Home-CCTV-Security-Camera-Video-IR-Cut-/351595056572?hash=item51dcb2cdbc:g:PrAAAOSwo6lWLZMJ
  10. Hi. Why are you not using auto setup . You need to go into the menu and in tick p2p. Then you can set up manual. But every time it powers down and back up its looking for the auto setup IE p2p And your unit is a TVT tvi unit
  11. Hi shockwave been a long time. Yes November 2015 they upgraded long term verified accounts hope they keep it that way.
  12. Refurb from flir ?? Lorex / flir have not used that OEM for a few years. For past 2 years there OEM is dahua. Are you using two power supplies ?
  13. Wild guess but I would say the same program as the first computer
  14. Hi. We're are you based ? Also to check a ground problem remove the green wire from your power unit .... Top left of your picture
  15. Hi. That explains the flir mod number ..... Old units no longer sold . No it's not a pigtail unit ..... But you have compression BNC fittings and I can see at least one is not fitted right . Having video bleed is most of the time bad BNC or a bad power supply. The outer core of the rg59 needs a good negative if it's not it will be using power supply negative and it's bleeding from the power supply and not the dvr. What type of power supply are you using.
  16. Hi. Are your cameras connected to dvr via pig tails? Also none of the mod numbers or board markings relate to flir. Can you post pictures of dvr back and front also screen menu

    Audio problems with my Dahua DVR

    Hi. It is hit and miss with that type of mic so do an easy test with mic only Disconnect it from dvr and either plug it in to monitor or rca on your tv and see if you get sound. You have not said also how you have audio out to monitor from dvr Also on all dahua you have mic control on top left of each image on the monitor .... Have you switched enable sound
  18. Hi interesting video.it looks similar to weld test and metal thickness X-ray that we did for ships. Are you also collecting data on a PC ? As it looks like you are using text as a reference code. Check your pm and see if this will give you more than just text. There software is open so I would also take a look at that and see if can be adapted to do your text but also other data you are collecting on the same screen in multi colours

    Connection problem

    Hi. You are at max limit for your cable which will give you drop out. And Poe might also be at its limit I would move your cameras if you can to around 85 Or drop the Poe at the nvr end and install a Poe switch around 60 70m

    Newbie Q - CCTV over interent

    Hi Scott yes its almost standard on most systems now and some are now self setup ... I would stay away from cloud storage
  21. Hi. Do you have a router on the boat was you using the 2go network

    Newbie question

    Yes they are if same as above links CVI but also need to look at support the lorex camera are better and you also get to use there services
  23. What size H drive ? To only have 24hr storage
  24. You don't get IR on fisheye GV or on CNB But your looking at fisheye 360 .. You don't mount 360 by a wall it will make the 360 pointless and a waste of a camera Is this just a one camera install ? Or to work with other cameras. Also look at fixed 360 PTZ camera .... Not fisheye

    Security Camera system with DVR

    Hi. How many cameras are you looking at installing and your budget and location. Qvis dahua and hikvision are good brands to look at.
