Hikvision ceiling mount (need cable gland)
This. I had the same issue. Lowes should have them, mine were in little bags on the shelf with the conduit fittings. You may need to ask them for assistance finding the correct size, the Lowes in my area had no real rational for what shelf they were on. Specific sizes were all mixed in with... -
Necessary specs when doing continuous recording
@Skispcs Thats pretty impressive storage, I have six 4mp running 24/7 at 20/15/15/10/10/10 fps and i'm getting about 8 days on a 4tb drive. @captain_jim1, continuous is good with motion triggering it. Its like placing a flag on a particular event in a timeline and i haven't notice a huge spike... -
Hikvision ip system
Can you work with Turret 4mp outdoor cameras? Speaking from experience there is going to be alot of spider web issues there, turrets are the better option and alot of people here will agree. -
Surveillance for Dummies
I mean it wouldn't be the worst thing. If they don't know any better and you only use a few of the cameras in the kit, you can mount those and set everything up. If one goes down, just replace it. If you're driving a brand new Kia, you don't know what your missing with a Corvette if you've...- PSPCommOp

Surveillance for Dummies
Only problem with those boxed system is... other then the quality and poor customer service... is if you need to return it you're going to have to take apart and repack the ENTIRE system. One camera goes, most places won't just replace a part of it. I mean you could get lucky and try but...- PSPCommOp

Surveillance for Dummies
I agree with nayr about the installation part. I'm helping co workers delve into this new area and im still learning all the basic ins and outs that go with the networking and setup so i'm not too comfortable providing a ton of advice for their entire system. Problem is, trying to be nice can...- PSPCommOp

Front door - what lens?
4mm should be good. 6mm is pretty narrow. I had a 4mm and had about 65% of my porch covered. Now that I have 6mm I get about 35% covered since its a smaller picture but the detail on the 6mm is even better then the 4mm especially when it comes to facial recognition. Luckily my porch is an...- PSPCommOp

About to buy a DS-2CD2542FWD-IS 4MP 4MM anyone have one
4mm should be good I'd imagine. Its not too cramped with the FOV and it will still give good picture. Just make sure the main entrance way is at the center of that photo. You will lose a little bit of clarity/definition towards the edges. -
Just Ordered A Longse LBW90S500
It appears to me that @patrocle has mounted his LBW90S500 camera a little to high and -- as a result -- the camera's IR is being focused on this lawn, approximately 4-feet to 6-feet beyond his patio. It may be that lowering the camera will allow the IR to be cast further out into patrocle's...- PSPCommOp

SADP password unknown
Need to use a computer on that network to access the IP address via a web browser. Access that and then update the IP address in the camera menu and reboot. It'll appear to freeze on reboot, that's fine. Just wait a minute or two and then try again with the new address. Or try using the NVR... -

2342 - New 5.4.1 firmware
Its usually recommended that you don't unless you are having issues. I don't have any experience with it but a lot of the most experienced posters have advised against it as it can cause you to brick the camera. Seems like the "if its not broke, don't fix it" type thing. -
SADP password unknown
I had a similar issue. I ended up accessing the camera directly and modifying the IP thru the browser rather then use SADP. When you first access the camera via the browser to do this, it will ask you for a password. It needs to be 8-16 characters in length and will rate the strength of it... -
Help with IP Camera purchase
If you're used to coax, it'll be fine. Its much less stiffer than coax. There are two differences between 5e and 6. One is the big plastic spine that runs thru the center of the cable. 5e doesn't have it, 6 does. It separates all the twisted pairs of cables and provides stiffness and...- PSPCommOp
