  2. sorry MaxIcon yes if your talking of the new t cards. its 5 mp each have a go at these settings (not in manual) go system then alarms ........ you will see alrms on right hand side of page and options on the left if you creat an alarm first ... just call it test the in the options on the left instead of left mouse click ... right mouse click and you will see the hidden options in one it will let you take a screen shot from one of your cameras and it gives you more recording options like sene change (ideal for finding shoplifters) people counting (in and out)
  3. Digi NV5000 is the avermedia which is the budget side of hybrid still 1 cannel at 5mp and 3 at 1.3mp the problem with the NV or SA 3000-5000-6000 if you are not shown the feature you dont know it has them (not listed in manual. such as face finder. left objects or sene change

    CCTV OVER BOUNDARY

    hi helen. yes recording your car is fine (you are watching something that belongs to you) as far as boundary try and have 80% of the image on your side this will cover you for not being classed as spying on them. two things you can do to cover yourself. once your system is setup just make a copy of your footage and give it to your local crime officer showing what you intend recording. then if he complains about you recording on his boundary. you can tell him to request a copy of your footage from the crime officer. keeping your system legal is better for you. and dont put up any cctv signs. having bad neighbours is never a good thing. do you know if the neighbour is renting / council house or bought

    dowshu software

    were are you based. and another factor on these systems is how big are they 8 16 or 150 cameras. a few people on here have the software you might have to pay as it does not go out to 3rd party.

    4 pin mini din to 6.35mm jack plug?

    hi paul. both methods are old and both have there problems. as far as ungrading cameras to be honest you will see no differance as these systems are old and are most CIF 320tvl no point in upgrading to anything above that. then you have power problems most of the old din plug systems were 7.5 or 9v as far as a pin out diagrame there are so many each have there own (so you had to buy there cameras)

    Leslie. i think it is time admin removed your posts. i hope soundy or rory have spotted what you are doing 2 of the 3 images you have listed in past posts have more than just an image. all of your posts are copy past from sites that ended with a virus problem. your post above is from 3 years ago and has been posted over 400 times over the net on forums along with your images. i think you should be removed from the forum before you cause harm

    i need a camera that i can zoom via RS-485

    sorry i thought that what you asked for the camera would be zoomed into the door every time motion is detected at the door no motion it zooms back out. or a bosh box will give you picture in picture 1 zoomed in the other out

    i need a camera that i can zoom via RS-485

    with most box zoom cameras now you can have auto zoom set vis motion on camera which will be better. if you have it set via your alarm when set the rest of the room is not covered

    Blacked-out channels

    hi. first we do need to know if your card is legit (if you talked to a authorised geo) they would have also told you pre 2006 will not run on the newer software. can you run this from your system and list your findings. http://www.remote-security.com/update/Detection_Tool_en8010.zip you may need to buy (if legit) a usb software lock (only from geo)
