Hi the qc444 is a dahua and was running 2013-14 software. All the same functions you are used to are still there but as you said will not have any control of your cameras settings . But if your upgrading your recorder then it's the hybrid dahua .... Gives you the option to add cvi or IP later on. Even just changing some main cameras to cvi or IP will give you more camera control. Like IR brightness and focus control

The mic 500 and 7000 are very good cameras in the uk there are seen in most city's as public space cameras. But on install they must be secure ... As you have noticed they are heavy cameras so the need a good mounting Are you on a pole ?

Hi. Looking at both dvr spec and camera spec both are 12vdc so a mistake has been made with your camera power supply. A 5 amp DC power supply from maplins will work for you. It also sounds like you are using lead kits ... These have never been good ...analog should only be on coax or cat5 with baluns. Your system is not a bad one as it works with other software but you will not get the benifits from your cameras with poor lead kit

Hi yes ac and DC will give you a problem. Can you check the power supply for dvr what size is that ? We're did you buy your equipment from

Hi does not meet any of the ops requirements. First it is not supported by many NVRs..... Then it's well over priced ..... Dahua or hik or aver same price range and all onvif. And look at the picture it has pig tails.

Hi how do you have the camera mounted ?

Hi. That is a good budget for even 4 camera system. 3mp with 2tb is in your budget. What sort of lighting to you have at night and distance you want your cameras to cover

Well buy from someone else .... Because you keep advertising them which means they must be crap

Hi. Parking space camera from dahua will do all you need

Hi. The software I sent ...... We're you have put in your local IP add your ddns as well

Hi. Just sent link to your pm .... Open it on your Mac I will also send you the guide

Hi. Depending on which firmware you have ..... On your screen when all cameras are up .. If you click on a little blue icon In the window of the camera with the problem it will give you options for that camera. Un tick auto brightness and at the bottom of that window click auto

Hi QC444. Dvrs are cheap now and most dahua are now hibrid. If you go analog and have the option to go cvi and ip I would buy a new one In the USA ADI Are now the licences distributor for dahua. I would go and look at a demo unit working and check the trade price

I DID READ THE SPEC And it says DC which is right Now read my last post Is your coax boxs giving ac or DC ? Like I said your cameras are DC Am giving you basic advice .... Cvi is done at camera end unlike analog and tvi ..... If you don't use cvi comparable components then your letting your client down with a simple plug and play system

A lot of the old power over coax was 24v AC Your cvi will be 12v DC . Not a match. Cvi cameras unlike tvi all data is done at camera end then sent to recorder. You you need a cvi solution. Your link only shows the power over coax but it does not show you that you need a power supply for each camera ...... And the power supply has to be variable 12-15-18-24v DC

Hi. Which system do you have ?

I'm just replacing an already existing DVR and want to find one with lots of features. I'm mostly interested in the configuration software for viewing on a PC For example, I prefer software that lets me configure a DAY TIME color configuration (brightness, contrast etc) separately from the NIGHT TIME color configuration. Small things like this make a BIG difference. For example, the software that comes on NightOwl sucks. Hi. Dahua allows you to do that Each camera can be set to day or night ... Auto light adjust

Hi they will delete one hard drive is full. Just keep setting to overwrite

You will need the make of the recorder. Hav is a proprietary so will need a file extracter

Local power is also an option..... And no point in going cat cable for cvi

Hi no you need both ends and you also need the power supply that is used for that kit If you are doing this for a client...... How many cameras will need the bi-wave kit because they are not cheap. You would be best using power from camera area

Hi. Once firmware has gone wrong there is no much you can do . You might find the maker of your unit .. But it's all time and effort For what it costs for a new branded dvr with hard drive is it worth the hassle

Hi. The link you posted is AVER equipment .... Which has a database VSI-PRO MAX. IS also able to send to PC for database

Hi if you have used the hdmi port and then gone to vga then your resolution is out of range Plug your hdmi in and set the resolution to vga

Hi have you tried the master user and password. FIRST LETTER is capital Admin 111111
