Hi this still depends if windows based of Linux based ……. Most Linux based DVRs only store the recorded data on the hard drive …… will still run without hard drive fitted but no storage
-
Hi it depends on your DVRs operating system …. In your case it sounds like an old windows based …. In this case settings are stored on the hard drive…….. hard drive is split in two known as a partition… one part master (for settings and operating software……. And other part is storage (recordings ) usually found on geovision or avermedia
-
Hi yes it’s possible… you will need to have a recorder which uses a app
-
Hi can you give more information
are boxes on conveyer belt
how fast are they going
are you placing the labels on
why go cloud when a recorder is better
-
Hi it depends how your setting it
from app it’s under resolution adaptation
but you can also set the app on the unit >system and tick app live self adaptation
how old is your system ??
-
Hi. Switch self adaptation off on your phone app …. Under local settings …… top left button.
then go to a camera on your normal app screen …. At bottom you will see a square with a pic of an eye …. Click on that then click high definition then back to normal screen then again click the same box with eye in it and select super definition and that will then hold your settings
other problems can be how your getting data to your recorder to router …. Is it direct cable or a Wi-Fi device

My cameras come with an ethernet connector and a separate power supply wire.
Why would there be a need for a separate power wire if it's getting is power via the Ethernet port?
If the NVR power is not active, why would a separate power wire be needed?
thanks
Hi not all recorders or switches have POE so a 12v power supply can be used instead

Hi $40 it’s a good option …… keeps your camera recording to the SD card …. So also a good backup option while no power
-
Hi this will have nothing to do with vms
many cameras that go to default are not the settings you need …. I am surprised for that money the axis has no battery backup
i had a problem like yours on another brand of camera …… no volume or home save on a ptz
depending on the time your camera is down a ups supply might be a better option for you and not for a lot of money
this is similar to what I used

Westshine don’t make recorders they only rebadge them xmeye or avtech they use

Hi then it’s not compatible with your nvr
it was first produced in 2012
I will PM you
-
Hi …. I was up there last week ardrossan
it looks like your using the old hik (2012) your new camera is not compatible as is out of the box ……. You will need to connecting to a computer and alter its settings
out of the box it is h265 and 5mp
you need to set to h264 and either 1080p or 720p for it to show on your nvr
so in reality it’s pointless running a camera you have to downgrade the settings on
is this for home or business use ?
-
Hi can you check the nvr product number ???
does yours have a DVD hard drive fitted ?
we’re are you based
-
Hi sorry took so long to get back
yes your right about the powerline plugs …. On goes at camera end and the other plugs into nvr (they come in pairs) it saves time and money running cat5 everywere I’ll PM you some links
-
Hi Power line plugs are the quickest and cheapest way something like this
https://www.argos.co.uk/product/6695749
also another benefit of having one of these at gates (if electric) you can open with your mobile or cars with built in gate openers like a Range Rover (a network adapter is needed ..£20 from Amazon)
the viper is not a basic system but only one of a few systems in the uk which is NDAA compliant
I will pm you details

Cameras Poe …… can either be connected
cat5 from camera direct to nvr (Poe) if nvr supports poe
cat5 from camera to a Poe switch and either then connected to nvr via one cat5 from switch or connected to a router that nvr is also connected too
your server port 8000 ……you need to change that to 5550 …. And also change it on your pc software configuration of nvr software

Near York uk
Hi. With power at gates you can use a normal iP camera and send the data down your existing power supply …. Which is much better than wireless
York nice place I am in Chester
I would start doing homework on a system called the viper …. Nvr and cameras best remote viewing app works with most cameras I have not had a system fail yet
-
Hi. This is a discontinued unit and last support was 7 months ago
but that should not stop functions working unless nvr or cameras have had a software update
are you Poe camera to nvr or on a network
what cameras are you using
and one of the main problems with that system was ports….. under network is your nvr using port 8080 …. If so change to 5550
and also change settings on pc application to match.
-
Hi. Wi-Fi on standard cctv is useless and never works plus most Wi-Fi cameras (smart cameras) need there own app to work
do you have power at bottom of drive ?
can you see bottom of your drive from house?
what part of uk are you in

I am in England and a buget of around £500 that could be increased for the right reason
Hi good budget.
Are you in a town or village or rural areawhat area are you in ?
but your budget will get you a good system
full colour day night cameras and audio
what are you looking for in a system
-
Hi a budget would be helpful so I can point you in the right direction for equipment
what part of the world are you in ?
-
Hi getting IR to work through windows never works it just blinds out the camera
switching IR off still leaves your IR filter in place unless you have something like a flood light outside of window

17 hours ago, paulcullingworth said:I want to upgrade to something similar to the Swann enforcer bullet type floodlite cameras but is there a better option out there?
Hi there is always a better option than Swann …. In your case it’s a hikvision/ hi-look
buying proprietary equipment is just a waste of money it’s always best to buy a system that is available to use most makes of cameras
what is your budget
Swann NVR Night Recording
in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Posted
Hi. One good system is the TVT … I have been using them for installs the last 6 years it also has one of the best apps available with full control over the system
the only problem with that Swann system is the cameras won’t work on anything else
how many cameras are you looking for and what type of property will be protected ?
