you will need 2 of the power supplies listed. to run 10 cameras at 1amp each. to wire your cameras i would use cat5 with baluns 1 cable will do video/power/ and PT control.

Thanks for correcting me! They are PT's. I live in a part of Memphis where hobo's love lurking around and going through your trash. This hobo had the balls to take out one dog ear fence in the corner of my yard and went through all my cars getting change (thank god he didn't take my tools). I want to make sure THIS never happens again or if it did, I would know which hobo to go get and "Dexter" him. I will try the "let's hook the power into the ADT control board" method before the PSU. I've already bought the pig tails so let's see how this plays out. The DVR i have is the DVR-DVS that I got relatively cheap so I'll see if I like this. I just need to wait a paycheck or two to get the remote/controller. ADT alarm panel ??? if it is your alarm panel i would not do that. it will not have enough power. for $40 why not do it right. 12v 5amp.

hi. the one you have listed is a toy compared to the avermedia. and i think anyone who says the avermedia is not user friendly has not used one.

avers nano is a very good little unit both 4 and 8 way hybrid HD. with sa/nv navigation osd . its priced right to get the cheap dvrs of the market.

Hi absolute. why are you using the vs7100 if you have a hybrid dvr ??

it will be cheaper just to buy a 12v 5 amp power supply for your cameras. and you keep saying PTZ these cameras are not. what you have bought are standard 8mm fix lens cameras on a plastic PT head. max 1 amp. these cameras are just about ok in side a store (small store) but for outside use they are a waste of time

i dont know what you have your panels controlling. door locks / keypads ..... but i would say not a good idea. at the moment if one unit or power unit goes down you will only loose that zone. connect all nits to one power unit and everything goes down. yes each unit as battery back-up ....... batteries dont last long in that unit.

on avers you should remove everything cameras/serial connections before you change any software. and yes avers does scan serial. as avers has moxa drives in the software. if needed for pos or ptz

sounds like your local ip changed for your dvr. you may have to re do your ports on your router to your dvr ip. do you have a static ip or are you using a ddns service.

.dav files extension means Dahua recorders Also, i'm every time wondering, about installers promises to customer.Like forensics search functionality. Lots of equipment manufacture companies can do ROI (Region Of Interest) search, but this is not "advanced motion search" ......... what ???

what make is your dvr ??? can you not narrow down your files to approx time of your footage needed

do you not have power in the garages to power your cameras local. and just use your cat5 for your ip camera. Great question, Tom. Yes, we do have power in the garages but we're powering everything - cameras, bridges, monitors and computers - from UPS's as a precaution. if you are protecting everything with UPSs then you will save with going POE with good switcher. then you will not need UPSs for your cameras.

do you not have power in the garages to power your cameras local. and just use your cat5 for your ip camera.

yes it can be done no problem at all. but i would use at least two dvrs/nvrs for that amount of cameras. you could use a 64way dvr but if it fails you have nothing.

did you remove your pos devices from your unit before you did your upgrading. ??? and is your com port changing all the time

how do you have your pos connected to your dvr ???

you may have gone to far into your router settings. you only need services and firwall settings. click security once loged on to your router. then click services at the bottom of that window click add custom service. then choose a name for the service i.e cctv. then click TCP/UDP and then enter your ports number then click apply. you will need to do this for each port needed so cctv = 80 cctv1 = 6001 cctv2 = 6002 cctv3 =6003 now click firewall rules. filter name = dvr service = choose a rule you created i.e cctv(TCP/UDP 80) from drop down list. allow always your dvrs local ip 192.168.0.3 wan user = any do this for all your ports that you created and press apply after each. then your done. use google to find your external ip myip.com you can then log on as http://yourip/port.

CNB in the uk with ir is called VVP9324DNIR but only has a 15m ir range. but if you have good outdoor lighting they are very good. there is not much differance in size with the CNB vlp4026 which had 30-35m ir range bullet type.

why buy cheap .......... as in crap ....... at the end of the day you will just loose money. yes many large companys have the equipment made in china but with good quality control. then you have the bad side of china the copy side. cheap cameras cheap parts and no warranty.

one system you could look at is aver mobile. the problem is using a cost effective mobile network going on the Uverse network system might be a good one to look at in the UK it is supplied by vodafone and i think in america it is under AT&T http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=178 http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?Id=256&Tab=Specification

now you need to delete all the software you had for the aver and re-install now you have both cards attached

does it run on i catcher ????? does it say that anywere in the manual NO avermedias mistake no YOURs. yes. your familiar with computers ???? many people all over the world buy this card and are up and running in 30 mins. they follow the instructions. so whats your problem ???

sounds like you have not linked the cards together ............ page 20 of manual. http://www.cctvengineer.com/NV_series_Manual_EN_v7.7.pdf

this is a good little unit. you can connect your ptz without buying a controller. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=232
