  1. Hi ......be careful of pre made .....with water tight ends ......they don't exist. Cat 5 has been out well over 30 years .........people new to the industry think cat5 is new........for your application all you need is standard......it will last more than your 10 years
  2. Standard cat5 will do just what you need.......it's been around for years for both internal and external. If its clipped then you will have no problems at all. Paint over it and it will last years
  3. Hi. No it has nothing to do with how you power cables or camera. That mod dahua is very limited.........sounds good on paper I,E run 19 analog OR 16 ip BUT ONLY AT A LOW RES The op wants 2 x 2mp 1x 1.3. But that puts recorder at its absolute max. Better with 4x 1.3mp But the area the op wants to cover / protect 1.3 is low. NVRs that control camera are never good. NVRs that take commands from camera are always best no limits

    How to wire my DIN 6 pin cameras to pc

    Hi. Din systems are not the best things to convert .......you will spend more on converting your old camera than it is to buy new. Power to camera will be a problem for you (most were 5-7volt) Din are balanced systems .... So you will have problems with quality connecting them to 75ohm And not all din systems are the same .......you might find din cable adapters but not comparable with yours Before you star spending money think is it worth it first
  5. Hi before you start to install .......just some points you need to look at. First you have the basic dahua hybrid. It will not run your ip cameras at there best res........you are going to have to set them at D1. Which is a waste. You might want to change dvr/NVR before you start your project
  6. Before you fill with spam get your own house in order first TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR 1.3mp Model - SX-N1280R/WVFD What is it analog or ip............you can't even get that right

    What's your favorite FPS?

    Look at RES first then FPS.
  8. Hi. It will depend on your dvr. Most now will control a PTA but only s few will allow you to store commands. If yours is control only then your other option is to also run a controller along with your dvr. This will give you problems if you use remote viewing and control of ptz.

    ApolloHD-16 dvr

    Hi HD will do 25 fps on all
  10. Just what I would expect an elitist secret society to say. They hold their head up high and put themselves in a catagory of their own inferring that Milestone XProtect Enterprise, ExacqVision Pro, Luxriot Pro, NUUO, Geovision that share pricing and offer trial downloads to anyone with a computer are non-pro software that are not worthy, yet they fail to show any evidence of their superiority. Ok I'll put it another way............ There has to be security products that NEED to stay out of the public domain. Or you can't call them hight security products. Avigilon do and will alway be used in high risk areas America . Canada . Uk. You do blogs on security...........if you can't understand why avigilon sell the way they do or protect there software.....and the reason why then you need to sit back and think. Avigilon products Have to be protected...and for good reason.
  11. Avigilon have a very good reason why they operate that way...it is a pro software. And are world leaders in what they do.... Putting out into DIY market makes it not a pro product.
  12. but their NVR6000 not come out yet, still in researching.....It really professional NVR Been out for a while........but expensive and again limited.

    Good IP System For Home Use

    Mankman2012. How many company names are you registered as.......... Alarm bells . You cam on last year under same address but other name OH and you don't need a DVR with IP.......and yes you can have all cameras on 1 screen
  16. you may think info given is not helpful but sit back and think ............ even tho you have used XP from 2006 to now you have service packs ......service pack 3 CAN stop viewing ............ did you run as administrator BEFORE you loaded software. are all DVR settings right..... ip ......subnet (which most people have wrong) gatway. screen shots of both DVR setup screen and router settings would be nice. we cant guess your settings. the reason why people say upgrade is infact to help you ........and i will explain why ......so sit back read and have a think. 1. software to remote view (Proprietary software) is the old way 2. software to view you downloaded footage AGAIN needs Proprietary software (you have to give police a copy of the software to view. (not many will now load software onto there PCs) 3. your DVR is cif old res. if you going to run and use CCTV at least use the basics. like listed in post $200 will get you working with a system you can use......... its $200 thats 54 cents a day for a year if your store cant withstand that sell up

    Robox DVR & Cam

    Hi. PAL is uk format. So stick with Pal. Also the camera you are buying from china is cheaper if you buy in the uk........ We're are you based in the uk........if your not far from me you can loan crips if it helps.
  19. Hi a unit from 2006 may need Proprietary software .....as you can connect LAN or WAN. It sounds like your problem. You should have a viewing disk. To load on your pc. But another problem may be your viewer may not be supported by your current operating system. Your right $ 2000 is a lot but a unit 2006 will be CIF I would look at upgrading $200 for D1 and viewing over pc or smartphone is cheap

    Robox DVR & Cam

    Hi. The cheap type cables you get with kits r the DIY plug and play cables will give some problems but not much. You are using a dahua DVR. (Rebranded). You could for a test either replace cables for rg59 or with the cables you have buy 2 baluns and see if image is better.... Also with the dahua you need a wide screen monitor
  21. hi aver EH6216H. thay is also a trial working software download ......so you can test your camera (only 1) but you still have record and playback
  22. Hi. aver hybrid will do what you need
  23. tomcctv

    Can this be done?

    Hi. Yes with your dvr it is easy and not much in the way of cost. Your remote software that you are using for remote (under settings) you will see 3 slide switches. .......they call them alarms.... But these are controls to switch the relays on and off on your dvr........all you need is a relay at dvr end to have control over switching lights on and off
