  1. can you post a picture of the front..... it looks like an old hikvision. also if it works (looks like its been at the bottom of a pond with all the rust on the connectors) see if it has PTZ controls on the software. delta wave (hik) does not
  2. hi. It is not a dauha. If the sales man says it is then ask to talk to another. The shang is a 16 way $200 unit and will not work with ANY dauha software or APP and its also new to the market
  3. please dont go by that thread it has nothing to do with your dvr............ not the same unit
  4. at $50 a camera ........ please why is it easier. PSS is free and much better
  5. can i ask why you have gone for a budget unit ........Looking for a DVR with at least the following.. please dont think its anything like a dahua ......... also no free apps (you have to pay for app on every device)

    Hybrid DVR or NVR?

    Hi. dahua hybrids are very limited. take a look at the 8ch units ....... 8ch@D1 / 4ch@720P / 2ch@1080P
  7. with a dahua code generator, which is part of a distributers pack........... so you just call your supplier and they will generat a new one for you. on dahuas if you are just locked out...................switch your unit off for 30 minutes and back on again

    CNM Salva 8 Channel DVR Unit

    Hi. for that type of connection you would need a modulator before you connect to your labgear.
  10. Hi. I would also take a look at avermedia not in the budget range of the dahua but all are hybrid. And if you are looking to sell as installed systems .......your not going to have the problems of your customers finding the trade price .
  11. so it should be .. no point getting it without.
  12. your best bet is to put your money on the table with which ever supplier you want to trade with....... no point asking for others to give you there discount and costs as there are lots of other factors to take into account. what are you looking at doing...... buy direct yourself or find the profits people make ??

    Need help with setup

    RS485 from PTZ to CNB sender (in the same room as operator) then PTZ ontrols are remote..... pan tilt zoom and camera call up and menu. not when you think about it......... This system has to work and it only has 1 chance. the people who have quoted that price may have thought about the size of camera and gone for one MP camera in each room. (does away for the need to be a PTZ) or IP axis PTZ which is small and would do the job you need. if you stay analog then you will have problems with camera being seen.

    Need help with setup

    Hi. for interview rooms we use PTZ remote control units ..... only 1 would be needed in your case as they can run multi cameras at the same time. you can find them cheap............ but buy a brand name unit we have always used CNB and had no problems ... you are looking at a cost of around $65
  16. hi do you know which DVR it is or can you post pictures
  17. Hi only you can do that................. prices do change by amount you buy. and how many times you have bought from the supplier. its also not just a matter of ordering 20-30 cameras paying for them you also need to put some sort of guarantee in place.

    Qvis DVR

    going from aver to dahua. seems like going backwards. we sell both and at the moment 4 way dahua is £98. also to have control over a dahua while away you need the PSS software unlike the aver (you download from unit) going from hybrid unit to analog
  19. tomcctv

    multiple controllers

    Hi. yes you can have both running.. your problem is going to be PTZ with auto tracker........... it never works forget auto and look for a camera with alarm inputs then it will do its job.
  20. shipped would be the best part of £400 ($700) sorry there are lots of 1.3 and 2mp cameras about with big names cheaper

    What are these cameras?

    Hi your cameras are CNB. good cameras................. but they are static cameras and not PTZ so nothing else for you to do but just plug them in.
  22. if yor installing for yourself then you can take the risk from ebay. but if you are installing for others just buy local............. you will spend more time and effort replacing crap
  23. its a web cam 640 x 480.................. no contest against 1.3mp................ and forget about using IR cameras
  24. Hi take alook at the avermedia 1.3 mp camera if you are in the UK (not available in US) its around the £80 mark. runs on the aver software and remote viewing via iphone/android/ PC also has two way audio.
  25. hi cat5 is the way to go. as for price. rg59 will run 1 camera cat5 with balun you can run 4 or more on the 1 cable.. so cat5 is cheaper
