    VSI Pro

    VSI is a good unit. first have you had both running on the same register before ??? also how long did you make the extention cable. what make is your register.
  3. hi. take a look at your screen layout first. it all looks mest up. moving cams 1 and 2 will not help your image shows cams 5 and 8 . plug your cameras direct into a TV and see if they both work first
  4. hi . with your dvr set to record motion yes it will do the edge. just dont use motion detect settings.
  5. you do need to do some homework. but go on throw a $3000 into the thread.
  6. you dont have to take it seriously. if you dont understand thats your problem but i will try to explain it better for you. $100 p&s is not waterproof. ...... cant be mounted to wall ..... cant be out in all weathers ....... cant be networked so YES IP will be a little more expensive because of the way it is made (why is that so hard to figure out ???)
  7. it does have alot to do with housings. ok let him stick his $100 10mp camera out in the rain snow heat. it would not last 5 minutes. so add a little more money to his $100 camera. then you need network connection so add a little more money to his $100 camera. software add some more money to his $100 you dont need a calculator to see he needs to spend a little more for a security camera

    Suggestion for PIR/doppler sensor for trigging motion

    hi. the vario has been available in the uk for over 12 months saw it at ifsec last year. dont know why its not available in america ...... please do not buy from the link you have posted. (please edit) two options. you can order from ganz USA of from a mobotix trading group mayflex. both of which you dont need to worry about sending money too. http://www.mayflex.com/products/security-lighting/infra-red/raytec-vario-i-series-multi-angle-infra-red-illuminators/
  10. hi. you do have that the wrong way round. can your pocket cam send you footage .... can you record away from your pocket camera. ..... can your pocket camera run for more than a hour........ will it last outdoors in all weathers for more than a few months remember your not taking pictures which your camera may do but the video is not 10mp
  11. Hi. yes true but if you only want say 1 or 2 pictures a day or a few minutes of video .... have no networking have no viewing (live) much much more to look into than cost.

    Can I use a PAL camera?

    on a q-see you have only two options run PAL or NTSC system. pick PAL and yes you need a pal tv (composite out) vga will be ok.
  13. hi. your problem is going to be data. if your cable is buried and cant add extra data then you will need to look at other options. power over coax and then use the old power cable for your data. or remote rs485
  14. you do know that motion detection and motion record are two types of setup. just switch your recording method to motion record (same thing) and then you will also have 5sec pre record motion setup is not for your camera full field its for putting detection zones in the field of view.

    Can I use a PAL camera?

    PTZ help

    Love it.... its even worded in such a way that you cant send it back manual PTZ and another reason why you dont buy from china biptu your not the first or last to be taken by ebay crap but you dont have a PTZ camera
  17. hi. you might find it better to learn how to do a backup from your dvr. it will save you alot of problems in the future. what make is your dvr. or can you post a picture
  18. i would spend a little more than $60 for a dome. is there a reason why you want a dome ??? you can use arecont housing or a 3rd party one. you will find you dont need a heater as the camera puts out some good heat anyway. Arecont http://www.arecontvision.com/images/products/HSG1-O-W_xl.jpg
  19. hi. if it was the eagleeyes software you would see lots of posts on here about it. so you need to look at your network (as tech support says) can you not connect both DVRs to the same router. (dont bridge it) and see what you get. do you have wifi switched off on your second router ??

    Advice between recommended cameras.

    hi. CNB will not reply to emails without a partner code. you cant buy direct. you might find you have email from a distributor.
  21. hi just connect your PTZ data cable to dvr A & B and run A & B from your controller also into A & B on your dvr (so as you have 2 cables in each of A&B)
  22. hi. yes you can............ but you will have to give more information first to see if the equipment you have supports PTZ control via your remote software, what make is your DVR/NVR does everything work local. how will you be viewing .....PC/ mobile ??

    New system need advise.

    hi. had a look at your link system. 16 way and all is good. the CNBs are only fix lens good for your isles but you might also think of swapping a few of the kit cames for some Varifocals around your cash areas and entry/exits. you also should make cash area and doorway vandal domes something like CNB VCB-24VF

    WV-SC385 and 940nm IR?

    hi. you are just wasting money with illuminator for that camera. and you also need the external housing. (extra) 940 is only good if you spend the money but for a PTZ you need something like the Raymax or a repeater PT head to match your PTZ with a illuminator fitted.
  25. these cameras are the basics from CNB. board camera fitted to a dome .... $45. and you have no settings to help setup (fixed mona) you will not get much better using a fixed lens.
