	  Help Law Side Small CCTV now been told to remove by landlordtomcctv replied to aby2013's topic in General Digital Discussion Hi. where are you located. if your in te UK then yes you could have a problem. people who object to CCTV always bring up recording kids. as you are not recording then you cant say you are or not. might be a good idea if you got a cheap recorder just so you can show HA what your camera is covering. but again this all depends if your in UK or not.

	  Some Dahua cameras/NVR/DSS questionstomcctv replied to shropna's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions It's because 90% of there 3rd party list don't work and the other problem is they will work but only at D1.

	  hooking up 4 separate monitors for ch1 ch2 ch 3 ch4tomcctv replied to Fars666's topic in System Design wow. he has a new system already ??? and going IP will just make it harder than with what he has now. SD/SDI IN/OUT with DVI OUT Box is all that's needed at each monitor. Feed from SD camera goes to box loops out to DVR and box converts signal to DVI

	  Approximately 46 IP Cameras - Super NVR or Server?tomcctv replied to SickNick's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions No dahua does this direct.................... this is why I call them a toy NVR. don't forget all dahua are limited to FPS (which also tells you it does not go direct to HD)

	  Approximately 46 IP Cameras - Super NVR or Server?tomcctv replied to SickNick's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions Why would anyone use a PC alongside?! That is what I was thinking lol I am assuming he is talking about the case of using 6 NVRs stacked you would use PSS to see everything on one screen. the 600 works just like nvrs stacked. ...... but the 600 will only display 6ch@1080P/9ch@720P/36ch@D1 so you need PC to view all channels

	  Approximately 46 IP Cameras - Super NVR or Server?tomcctv replied to SickNick's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions Why would anyone use a PC alongside?! the 600 cant display all cameras at same time ....... so pc is needed ...... also pc is needed to burn footage

	  Approximately 46 IP Cameras - Super NVR or Server?tomcctv replied to SickNick's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions why not just change brand of NVR..... then you have much better options on which IP cameras you want to use. and not have to use a PC alongside like you do with the dahua Any other NVR I have seen for recording at this many channels goes for about $10k on other brands. hi. don't get caught up in the word super dvr THATS only at D1. it will only do 32 at 2mp

	  Dahua alarm inputs - how to connect 220V?tomcctv replied to Securame's topic in Installation Help and Accessories yes its like buying a new PC it says 240v ............ show me a component in a pc thats 240v (none) 220v / 240v / 120v is power in (transformer)

	  Dahua alarm inputs - how to connect 220V?tomcctv replied to Securame's topic in Installation Help and Accessories light fittings are rated at 240v cable / switch and fittings and fused (europe) i did give a simple drawing of how easy it is ....... all this has come up because the doorbell is not to standard so drawing i left will not work for you as that would be 220v going though your dvr alarm point which you cant do. spend money on putting doorbell into regulation which WILL save you money with having to buy install a relay and a fuse. (if you can do relays why is fitting a new doorbell so hard) always work to codes and regulations

	  Dahua alarm inputs - how to connect 220V?tomcctv replied to Securame's topic in Installation Help and Accessories I understand your task was to set Alarm via doorbell which is very easy ...... But because the way your customers bell is set up is the reason your having problems I was only trying to help on what the regulations are. Ok yes it was already installed but since you have removed it and putting it back knowing its out of code Then it falls on you and your company. 30 to 40 minutes to fitt a new low voltage door bell then your DVD just connects direct But to start adding relays to a in protected 220v with no fuse or earth is just not worth the risk.

	  Dahua alarm inputs - how to connect 220V?tomcctv replied to Securame's topic in Installation Help and Accessories law in spain does not allow for 220v (DIRECT CONNECTION) doorbells. and i dought anywere else. just to point out a few things 1, your test shows the striker is 220v hold off (as your getting voltage reading) which makes no sence 2, if doorbell was to be 220v then ........ you have no earth and more important NO FUSE protection. by the time you have bought relays and the likes if you google 220v doorbell in spain (yes all 220v but step down for button and bell) you will see 35 euros then you will have volt free contact for your DVR is it worth all the messing around for 35euros ($40)

	  Dahua alarm inputs - how to connect 220V?tomcctv replied to Securame's topic in Installation Help and Accessories hi. i would change the whole doorbell. as far as i can see 220/240v doorbells were available back in the 50s / 60s. if you are getting 220v from these cables then thats a problem in its self striker should have either nuteral or positive but not both. also a 220v bush button (doorbell) dont exist, i think your working with a hash setup you should not be getting 220v at striker or button. get customer to replace doorbell ......... in the UK we would not be allowed to reconnect under regulations and put sticker stating unsafe. going with a normal doorbell setup doing what you need would be easy. as its low voltage.

	most DVRs will format on first HD install ....... and if your using a secondhand drive format at fat32 then install into dvr and it should run a farmat itself again.

	  Dahua alarm inputs - how to connect 220V?tomcctv replied to Securame's topic in Installation Help and Accessories as ak357 has stated you should have a transformer . looking at your pic it has a CE mark so it will not have 220v at push button. if it does for some reason either replace the whole unit or just dont connect as being a door bell unit it does not fall under regulations. i do think if you remove bell striker box you will find 220v to 5v transformer. most push buttons are N/O and volt free .... except push buttons with ilumination which are only 3-5v which your dvr can have going though alarm inputs.
