    Backing up CCTV

    it is true in some cases ...... most basic DVRs need a manual input to send data to USB I think the OP is looking to mirror internal HDD from usb at the same time .... which in most cases can not do
  4. hi. its not a avigilon problem ..... its been a problem with android and chrome for a while one way past it is to load this onto your android. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siber.roboform
  5. Finger readers are like cameras ......... You can go cheap sensors to electrical impulse . CCD sensors are the cheapest........ Work 80% of the time but have problems with multi users so sensor need cleaning ...... Which by your discripstion is your problem Screen has last persons print ...... Allowing none registered to have access also people who do have finger access the sensor is dirty so print is not accepted .
  6. your house sitting ............... its got nothing to do with you. it matters to me because if it is a camera then they have seen me changing and that's pretty uncomfortable. don't think its a camera ......... no point having covert with flashing led

    Having just been through the same exercise although with an analogue NVR camera, here are a few things I've found. The target area in your case should be back down the road near the wheelie-bin. This is the spot that the vehicles are coming directly towards the camera. Your lens will need to be at least 50mm to get a clear image in all conditions. If you use a 50mm lens looking at you existing target area the car will transverse the FOV too quickly for the slower shutter speed used at night and the image will blur. If you adjust it back to say 30mm you may overcome the blurring but not get a clear plate image. This is just what I found on a recent job. no. that's not my camera ....... was just showing a hik has no chance at night ....... don't know which hik video is showing
  9. hi aboo. that works out at $200 a camera even analog your going to be pushed at that price. your budget just for the IP network for 12 ip cameras
  10. are you looking for a mobile unit >>>> car truck ??? or is it for home. if for home the a single camera like the avtech with onboard recording or any good make with SD card

    wirelessly viewing dvr/ two tvs

    Hi. That is over a mile away ??? Your best option is to buy a android pad if you have Internet That way if your unit is for door monitoring then you have video anywhere in your home
  12. I don't think you are going to find a mobile unit that has good motion detection ............... its just not needed what are you protecting ???
  13. you will need your dvr to have a screen so you can set remote viewing up. software in your PM.
  14. Sorry, but i do not understand You. Can You explain me more detail. Thanks. for baluns to work they need to be direct DVR to camera. (un balanced) as soon as you split cat5 then baluns cant do there job. you would be better cat5 to power supply like your picture then from power supply rg59 to cameras your picture is showing DVR blue/ blue w and orange / orange w for video yet at camera orange for both video too many joins for baluns to work as they should
  15. http://www.gjd.co.uk/products/wireless-detectors/opal-rfx/ GJD or the optex listed above. GJD has a battery life of around 2 years
  16. your problem is no direct balun ..... your baluns are not doing anything
  17. Hi. PIRs would work but still have false alarms or install a good PIR setup like a redwall unit. if you want solid protection then optex beams ..... just 4 core alarm cable back to NVR or another optex with custom added voice alert ..... same install just 4 core cable or go wireless video demo 30G5iMZ6sxQ
  18. No. It just means you have a branded avtech DVR. You need remote software from avtech website

    loud alarm

    Smoke has been around in uk for over 15 years but only just starting to be used more and more. Liability was the problem at first DHL was a big user till a claim was made ...gange member hurt in raid. Signage is important in and out of store or house. Or recorded message while smoke is deployed. We use thermal camera with are systems. But fire departments in that area should also be involved they do make a lot of smoke
