    DH-SD22204UE-GN - tuning tips for day and night

    Keep in mind most any ptz will start at 60 degrees or less at minimum zoom so depending on where you keep yours parked now you may end up with a much narrower field of view. The main exception I know of from EmpireTech being the PTZ3E405-AI with 95-30 FOV, there’s a few others including what you...

    Hikvision dual sensor ANPR

    I’ll add that #1 is warm light illumination only, no IR light. Some locations this would be fine, others not so much. Edit: channel #1 is warm light only

    easy way to make a small trench?

    Well put and like most jobs it falls back on finding a happy medium between “A job worth doing, is a job worth doing right” and “Don’t let perfection ruin good enough”

    easy way to make a small trench?

    I suppose so, and after watching the short video with the inaccurate description I can see how somebody could make it work. It still doesn’t seem like it’s the right tool for the job nor would it be deep enough for me feel comfortable about it.

    easy way to make a small trench?

    If you really want to go that far by hand a trench shovel is well worth it https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-40-in-Fiberglass-Handle-Trenching-Spade/5005461985#no_universal_links

    easy way to make a small trench?

    Sounds like a good way to ruin a weedeater/edger but maybe it’s up to the task. What kind of traffic will run over the line? Riding mower, tractor, trucks? For 250 ft I’d rent a mini trencher made for irrigation lines at least if not something that would get you down to 12in or so if there will...

    DMSS notification display question

    I do recall reading something about only saving ALL alerts with an account. As in, if I click on “Message” at the bottom in DMSS the only ones that show are the notifications that I actually clicked on, or that happened while I had DMSS open.

    DMSS notification display question

    Does creating an account and logging into DMSS make a difference? I have never created an account with an email address and it’s been years since I used P2P, I only use IP/Domain now

    DH-SD22204UE-GN - tuning tips for day and night

    EIS= Eletronic Image Stabilization If your camera is mounted to something solid no need to be on, as in not on a pole that may move slightly in the wind. Picture Freeze= freezing the display while the camera is moving. I leave it off

    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    They’re great little devices that can be isolated from the internet on their own VLAN and integrated into Home Assistant easily. At the top of my list is the PM “power monitoring” versions which allow me to see when the pool filter needs to be cleaned as well as one on the HVAC system to monitor...

    Unable to log in to one of my Dahua cameras via the Dahua NVR interface

    Brave browser has been working for me even though I have to continually close the banner at the bottom telling me to install the plugin

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    I suppose I missed that, I just saw something about restarting the cam in BI a couple posts up. As well I probably should have added a smiley face or something to indicate I was just being a smart ass.

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    So do we call that a +1 for NVR’s

    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    With the Shelly device one would be setup at the gate to sense the contact state while the other would be at the NVR to change states accordingly. Of course this is assuming there is already a CCTV setup, I think Bruce_H and I may be getting ahead of ourselves

    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    Going to need some more information about what you’re working with but these devices are quite versatile and relatively cheap. Careful though, after TonyR turned me on to them they and other Shelly devices have multiplied faster than cameras around here...
