tomcctv

now i am worried. i thought with looking at your posts (everything was in $) i thought you was in the usa. why the hell have you bought that of ebay ITS NOT A UK SOCKET. YOU CANT USE THAT IN THE UK.

vavdagic. doing things on the cheap is not good. $1 do you think that timer will have any regs or stand up to your country regulations. and have you seen the P&P are you saying you could not just pick one up from your local store cheaper . you may want to fit cctv in your home to protect ..... but you are also bringing something into your home that can hurt. i think you will also need one of these.

Hi try and change the format from fat 32 on your usb stick to fat only.

The last clip is funny http://www.edaffy.com/media/60/Worlds_worst_criminals_Idiots_caught_on_CCTV/

i think there is enough info there to see two bullet cameras will not do the job.

avermedias will not run WD Caviar Green so you will need to swap them. use WD standard also when you do your partition only partition 1 drive for op/system and back-up dont partition your second drive (video data drive.)

well cm software is the way for you to go. and you can also use your existing cameras. how it works is you change your existing dvrs that you have and in locations were you have nothing you install ip cameras. that way your security can call all cameras back to one location. you can also set your location cameras with alarm functions to alert your security of anything happening. if you wish to see a system working with cm working just pm me.

opel is not a problem as they give static ip addresses. it depends on your budget as to which way you go. what are you protecting ..... in the uk

hi KSML you just need ADSL . who is your ISP

Hi joe. a good little unit is the seb avermedia. if you wish to view live over internet pm me your email. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=258

From what I gather, he already has this part working: motion on a camera triggers an output relay on the box to turn on the sirens. His problem is that he only wants it to work during certain hours, and the DVR doesn't have the ability to set a schedule for the alarm trigger; it's active all the time. that's all correct, can you tell if i don't get it working by software some good digital on/off current shutter or whats it called? so everything is working. you have the signal from your dvr to your I/O box which on motion detect starts your sounder on and off ................ what you are looking for is a way of just having the sounder start and finish at a set time period

yes you can go 4-8-16-32 also going hybrid will also let you just install ip cameras at 1 location and the recorder somewere else. so if you have 10 locations you dont need 10 recorders

then that will not work not with the set-up you have. an alarm box is for incomming to a dvr . your dvr cant send a signal out. you would be better not using your alarm box and just use your camera to detect motion and set it to alarm and put a set of good speaker on your pc.

soundy know all my troubles thanks ok not a problem ........ dont forget the left mouse click.

vavdagic. what are you trying to do with your system are you using pir sensors with your alarm box ???

a simple way would be to put a 4 channel dvr in each location and then use a CM software to monitor all dvrs together. take a look at the eb3004 avermedia with there cm300 software.

putting a lens on to a lux meter and then putting it back onto a camera i just dont see the point ......... its the camera that does the lux. using a lux meter is for light at that time (it can change with in 10 mins) are you looking for this to do cctv ???

Thats great but is it working? dont know i havent got a gun . to try it.

i was not to shure about this post and how anything like this could work without false alarms. like comments made ... fire works / car backfire. but i read the papers here in the uk to find they have just installed a massive system in birmingham. all done by an american company http://www.shotspotter.com/ uk papers State of the art gunshot sensors have been installed for the first time in a British city in a new approach to tackling gun crime. Project Safe and Sound" in Birmingham uses technology which records an audio clip of any gunshot fire and sends police its GPS location, helping them decide how to respond. It can tell if multiple shots were fired, whether they were fired from a stationary or moving location, the number of weapons used, and the order in which they were fired, according to the manufacturers. West Midlands Police said the sensors had been placed high up on buildings in northwestern areas of the city. "This technology will enable us to respond faster and more effectively to firearms incidents, therefore minimising the harm to local communities and maximising the opportunity to seize illegal firearms, catch offenders and potentially save lives," said West Midlands Police Chief Chris McKeogh. The Shotspotter Gunshot Location System is already used in U.S. cities. U.S.-based firm Shotstopper Inc designed the technology, which can pick up gunshot fire within a 25 metre radius from a distance of two kilometres. Police responded to some Birmingham residents' concern that the sensors would be used for surveillance, saying they record decibels, not voices.

Hi Christopher. like everything in america medical is very expensive. but for eyes you cant put a price on it

Hi mel. you say you are in the uk. you will need at least 21 days recording by law at your premises. (drinks licence laws) cop are good units but yes time to back-up is slow. this is a very good dvr . hybrid windows based. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=263 if you would like to see one working just let me know.

have you opend your christmas crackers early and posted the joke. 500km i take it is square miles (310 miles) yes i should think your wiring will get messy. for someone who has only done houses i would walk away from the job. look at the cost for a start ...... look at the manpower.

nice to see you back scorpion. make sure that next time you go MIA that you ask for the forums permision DONT DO IT AGAIN

Hi skinnyvinnie. its called a 7 pin din. you will not find any adaptor to connect your camera. as there are many differant ways companys used the configuration to connect there cameras. but if you are handy you could just take your unit apart and find the video in wires (you only need the video and ground) as you can use a seperate power supply to run the camera. if your not that handy run your system and camera down to your local tv repair shop.
