Hi. good choice using axis cameras. a good brand camera can be added to the UK school watch scheme in the holiday times. this could be down to the age of your DM dvr you will find it is only cif Resolution or only set at cif. 31 days is the norm for footage in the uk. and on a 32 way hybrid you will need 8tb in a school. but as the school has there holiday times you will get 70 to 80 days (as the internal cameras are not recording all the time) one unit to take a look at is the aver 32 hybrid.

Upgrading a 940nm camera...how feasible ?
tomcctv replied to stephanovich's topic in General Digital Discussion
hi for 10m with 940 you will need to look at range of 20m spec or above. built in 940nm cameras are very limited if at all being true 940nm. or go withstandard IR for that range. -
we have Metal Mickey units up both with wiper and without. the ones with wiper need more get up and clean more than the ones that dont. wipers are useless without water.

Problem with 8ch BT878 Card - black lines
tomcctv replied to marcomatic's topic in Digital Video Recorders
hi. new PC and a $14 capture card .......25fps with just 1 camera or 6fps if you use 4 ....... i would not bother putting time into that card. put in a aver nv3000 card for $60 and done. -
hi. that is the job of the ISP. only on there problems. and most ISP tech are just reading from a manual (they dont even have a clue if they did not have the tech manual) for ISP tech support they would need to know IP networking ..... you will be on the phone for years. he may never have even heard of a ip camera. hi it has nothing to do with your ISP if port 3777 is open or not. you will get all the info you need if you list your project. how many cameras / are you using switches are you monitoring local or away with the software. are you using PSS software ?? also are you using a ddns service.

cage on a home trust me it looks a mess and only attracts attention to the camera. if you mount them high enough then you have no problem. looking at your home picture each camera can be protected with another camera (people have to pass though other cameras) so you will always have a image.

hi yes we came across someone who bought a ADT system (£960) and also had to pay a monthly fee (paying for first year) its cheaper to let people rob your house with all the stupid extra costs ADT make up. not an issue if put up right. good domes will do the job you need. not a good idea to mount them inside. what is your budget for a system ??

hi i dont think you will get anywere with your ISP ..... if your on the internet and everything is working then thats all your ISP will get involved in. if you can give more details on your system ..... dvr and router and cameras. this part of your post is a bit confusing.

Condensation build up/help or tips please
tomcctv replied to stephanovich's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
hi. the time change in your camera getting condensation can change from hours to weeks. it`s down to the weather outside ..... if it is warm then you will not get condensation. as the nights start to get warmer you might not see it happen till you next get a cold night. ignition sealer is a chemical and can change the colour of plastics and as you are looking at the lens area i would not try that. can you list the camera. -
hi. EU look for CNB I-Blue. .......... were are you located. no the the longer the distance the worse IR gets. unless you look at spending $300/400 on good illuminators.
-
hi. if you need to watch your dogs or see if anything is on the ground that should not be there i would forget about IR and go with flood lighting. solar is a good option put light without power anywhere around your property.

Door Peephole camera install
tomcctv replied to excableguy's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
hi. i would look at doorframe cameras. much better than installing into doors. as soon as you open the door to anyone the camera becomes useless ...... if you have a nice hot day and only use your screen door again your door cameras sees nothing. much easier to install a camera into a door frame than door. -

New setup for small shop. Where to position and what camera?
tomcctv replied to Integraoligist's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
hi for your budget i would look at 4 ESIP-MP2-DM1 cameras and run them on a aver nano. this will allow you to view remote .. or record on site and away (your home) connect to your cash register see what you are selling and cash amounts and not bother about buying a licence to run this or that. for the cost of a licence its the cost of a hybrid -
connect dvr to router
tomcctv replied to ThoalfeqarAli's topic in DVR Cards and Software - PC Based Systems
hi yes you can (called local network) all you need to know is the ip address of your dvr (found under network settings) most of the time with just local networking you dont need to do any port forwarding -
WebRec Control not loading properly
tomcctv replied to brewern's topic in DVR Cards and Software - PC Based Systems
hi. with having 2 units to view it looks like 1 of the units needs a firmware update. (you have the Dahua dvr) or you can use the new remote viewer (sent via PM) -
hi. yes with that Hauppauge you can. but like i said from amazon the dvr pens are $7 upwards which is cheaper than buying the add on leads and remote (which you dont need)
