    need more ir light

    Hi prosniper. the camera you have listed will not do what you are looking for(it is good for close-up images) for what you need the camera to do you will not get from maplins. if the distance is 20m away then i would look at a 50 to 70m range ir camera with varifocal lens. with around 540tv lines colour/650tv lines in black&white. i use this type all the time. http://www.koreacctv.com/eng/images/item/571_n.pdf

    Gv-IO device

    used to control sensors/pir for ptz or alarm contacts to move your ptz to that location and also control the switching on of lights or anything that has no/nc contacts.
  4. hi apple. i am in doncaster thursday next week then upto richmond. i could spare an hour with you. let me know.
  5. orange will change your ip every day so if they dont give you a static ip then you will have to set up a ddns account (most are free) to hold your ip address. if you are not used to networking you will find it to be hard work. what part of the country are you in. ???
  6. first of all you need to learn port forwarding. but i am not shure if orange will give you a static ip. please give them a call. here are the instructions to port forwarding. on your router. http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Inventel/DV4210-WU/Echolink.htm
  7. can you tell me what model from maplins. and what type of router do you have. so i can send you the info.

    Mac question....

    yes it does. the pos is built into the dvr it is not an add on. so it is always on the screen. or you can hide it from the staff and only showing on your laptop.

    Looking for advice, system design...

    it will run on everything except MAC. smartphone/pda/mobile windows/iphone. but not mac. you could always run both o/s on your mac.
  10. Hi suky see you have changed your company name again. mmmmmm and a high speed dome on a jet aircraft Stop trying to sell your products and read the posts and try to help Lol, you are quite professional on trying to sell your products and to help. i dont try to sell on here suky. you try to sell your company. (sorry)companys cheap crap on every forum..........you have just been thrown of cp forum. if you like i can post your company feed back on here if you like but then i dont think you would sell anything anymore. IRCCTV has come on to the forum to ask for help in a camera that might do a job he needs. (i dont think a 320tv line camera on a stick at the end of a runway is what he is looking for) IRCCTV have a look at this link and give them a call proper camera company. http://www.avigilon.com/products/samplefootage/

    if you can build one yes. but its not that easy and you will have storage problems plus your staff will start to play with the pc. the sa dvr 1t h/d will give you 21-30 days and you can look it down. plus you say you want pos for tills. much better to set up on the sa dvr if you are doing it yourself.

    anyone attemped buying over seas?

    i am in england and also thought of buying direct. what a big mistake. all the companys on security global. say they manufacture. BULLS##T. before i bought from china i whent to see the manufactura in china. very helpfull. picked me up from airport after long flight took me to a nice hotel. next morning the ceo picked me up from the hotel to take me to see his manufacturing plant. 40 mins into the drive he does a u-turn drives for 5 mins and u-turns again back the way we came. i said are you lost he said he thought it was up this street...........your the ceo of a big manufactura in china and you cant find your own factory. let say i did not part with any money. if he cant find his factory how is he going to look after your orders. other stories of people buying from china are 100 dome cameras $900 shiping cost $1800 you dont find out about shipping cost till you go to pic them up. but i do bring in all my cameras now 560tv line 5 year warranty and in the last 12 months i have had to send only 3 back. i used to buy this type of camera from a supplier in the uk for £310 till i found a packing slip in the box. i contacted the company and the same camera to my door £89. so yes to bring them in yourself is very cost effective.

    in the dark areas you are best off using b/w cameras. you will get a clear picture. and use good colour cameras at your door entry. i would use a dvr with pos built in for the info from your tills. getting cameras right in a night club is hard to do but i have done many night clubs. take a look at this system. full internet/mobile/pda/iphone viewer. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=86

    System of choice in large site

    Are larger IP systems something you've specialized in? Hi smedley. if this is your first time installing ip then i would say dont. you are looking at doing a 40 cam install. you need to know what you are doing and you need to have a good IT manager behind you. plus the cost. look at a hybrid system were you can use both. BUT NEVER install a ip ptz.

    advise on dvr

    for cif 336x272. no point spending $$$$on such high camera spec. 380 or 420 unless you are going to up-grade your dvr at a later date to say a D1 res.
  18. Here is an 8 way avermedia. has a bit more than the eb. i.e will take ip. also a very good system. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=228
  19. connect a slingbox to your video out on your system. http://www.slingbox.com/go/slingbox-solo

    purple channel!!!

    check your camera settings in the menu sounds like it has been disabled or hidden. take a back-up and play it back see if it is there.
  21. Scorpion. well said " title="Applause" /> i try to get this point over to customers time and time again. ............. i call to see customers who as soon as you get there say i only want a 4 cam system. and the house is massive. (customer. 1 cam on driveway, 1 cam on front garden, 1 cam looking at garage, 1 camera looking over back yard. that a 4 camera system) so you explain to the customer that all cameras are looking away from the house. nothing is protecting the doors windows or the building its self. it does not take them long to aggree. MRSHANES, take time in designing your system if you can post a pic on here of your new home plans and area around it. then guys on here will help you design it. like scorpion says run cables everywere and add cameras each month it will soon build up into fortknocks. most good systems will interact with your house network i.e gates/alarm/doorentry. but spend as much on your dvr as you can to start and add to it when you can. you have 100s of guys who will help you on here they can send you demos of dvrs /cameras which is also a very good thing because at night your system will change. good cameras is the key to a system.
  22. i have used 5 of the eh systems in the past weeks. it is a good system but i would spend just that little bit more and go for the sa or nv avermedia range. they both do a lot more and outshine the everfocus dvrs. the problem i get with the eh is you can not get a crisp clear picture on the monitor. viewing backup and over the internet is very clear. the sa or nv have a much better o/s.
