    Foscam FI9821W vs Hikvision DS-2CD2432F-IW

    Hi. That Foscam vs fisher price toy cam I would pick the fisher price. If the hikvision is the type you want then Hikvision vs avtech vs axis is going to be a better few options
  2. I don't understand why you say the cameras can't pic up red or blue plates..... Day time should not be a problem and at night both red and blue would show black under IR. Yes geo does pic up red blue black yellow so does aver .. Avigilon ..PIP. The problem is using standard IP as a Anpr camera it will get plates but only as a capture. Only with a good enviroment

    Introduce HDCVI

    Another problem is distance Over coax max 150 it does 1080 after that and over cat it's down to 720p Sales pitch is easy upgrade for coax but it is also a camera resolution fall back something your not going to get with IP If something is good for a company then they keep hold of it .... For some reason dahua have already sold off a licence
  5. Not a good idea tho to use a company that far away Just think of cost of service calls for 7000 cameras Still a bad statment ..... Only company that can do the job
  6. What is the national vehicle data base? Sorry usa it's vehical registration
  7. Yes lots with geo LPR Yes you image is good but it's controlled I.e cul de sac Show a moving image something 20 mph in dark the hik can't do that. On its own run it through a GV LPR box it might. But since ops question was something better than just catch image of plate and he is already using the platform (geovision) and its for a parking lot. Then geo. Can do a lot for him Log plates ... Create data base of car owners ..... And with licence from DMV log owners of cars ....... Check if plate should be on car
  8. You must of been looking at the wrong geovision One thing geo does and does well is LPR AND IS ALSO 1 of 4 companies which can be licensed to use national vehicle data bases. ------------------------- You have an existing geovision system I would look at installing LPR software onto it. This has a lot of good features
  9. How many baluns are on your cable ? You can use other type of balun the one you have listed are not the best. And that type is not good if you update your PTZ at a later date

    Looking for a basic CCTV system

    Hi. What budget is your boss looking for ?? This is a axis plug and play with SD card storage You might find you will only need one camera as the axis has a good wide view Just plug into your network and view from any pc or tablet on same network and view anywere away from building. Axis P1214-e
  11. Hi. Have you pressed this button about 10x ?? But yes better power supply would help. If you still have control over your PTZ data then it is your video link that has the problem Check baluns at each end Another is do a camera reset by hitting 11 on number keys and then reset on screen menu

    Looking for a basic CCTV system

    Hi. For such a high class area why do you not want to record. Soon as something happends you will wish you had. But if you don't wish to record then you have to keep in mind that someone in the office is going to have to keep watching monitor or tablet. This might be a better idea for you

    How do you adjust or point Dahua Camera's

    NO NO NO Don't take your camera apart Don is right need a model number or picture first of camera
  14. Hi. You would have better control and reliable system if you use a M30 or M60 dahua video wall controller
  15. Reason is ...... Your on forum asking why lines on image Cameras dvr are 75ohm ..... So being on 100 will give you problems Cheap cable kits use same nutral for powe and camera .... Which would also give you your problem.
  16. Also your other cameras not on car5 are on 100ohm cable Cheap cable kit
  17. Hi. Can you post a picture Have you got the right region for your country

    Alternatives for large Analog CCTV System

    Miguel The project scope specifies Analog system, budget and prices are mandatory, we are competing against many companies so the best and affordable solution is the key, Yes think your right Can get some $10 cameras off ebay that should get you price down for install ........ But dought its fit for the job. It's a public place so even if mall owners are stating what they need at end of day they know nothing. Should be seeing what local police expect from the system and local authorities. Many install companies get job designs and quote requests in on there desk. And most of time next to a desk is a waste paper bin. Like I said in first post ...... Educate your customer this is a large mall it needs better than cheap analog cameras. http://www.news24.com/Tags/Topics/kenya_mall_attack http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2014/12/31/nsw-man-charged-after-mall-attack Cctv is a collection of events of anything that happends. Even down to protecting public from pick pockets and system has to be fit for that Again it's educate ........ask your customer what he expects from the system

    Alternatives for large Analog CCTV System

    Hi if your ruling out IP only because of the 400m distance then your not the guy to design the system. If your designing a large mall with budget system prices then your not designing the right system for the environment. First you need to educate your customer. System fit for purpose is needed in mall public space. Cameras good for recognition Storage what is length of time needed to store VMS. What is your customer expecting from the system. Avigilon for this type of install large malls airports dock areas it ticks the box for them all
  20. Hi. Your iPhone settings you list are showing your local IP address. (Your business internal network) If you google myip from your business it will give you your external IP address. Did you do any port forwarding when you connected your camera ?
  21. No not a comment it's fact. You need your editing rights taken away from you .... So others can understand the crap you type No point you giving crap then removing your crap You give advice use humbugs with cat6 and baluns I like to think I have just saved the op $30 a camera with putting you right with your bad advice
  22. I can understand why a DIYer would think that. can have 10 or 12 even 13v at camera but it still needs amps ........you can under amp a camera you cant over amp it and if you look at ops power spec 1.2amp each. at power supply ....... sorry but op is not going to get 1.2 amp at end of 300ft and adding anti hum on cat6 with baluns ........... that has to be a joke ???? it must be. generatorlabs. it is best buying good quality baluns lots on ebay stating are baluns but are not also cat6 is always best away from other power cables ..... never run across other cables. 0.275ma is low for a camera with ir can you list spec of cameras
  23. Hi. You will need to list your power supply spec Also camera spec also type of balun Amps is going to be your problem over nearly 100m
