    Another new OWL VIEW Camera Comparison

    Very much appreciate the help. I have been using the IR camera for past 3 years. The new to me Owl view have excellent daytime image and motion. Night with the IR cam is obviously limited in "range" due to the light from the IR. But the motion was much sharper. The color Owl View is quite...

    Another new OWL VIEW Camera Comparison

    I am NEW to using BI and installing cameras. What I am looking for is a suggestion on SETTINGS which are many on the camera to offer good night vision and smooth as possible clarity for motion. The camera, I just put it up and it has it's "factory" out of the box settings. What do you...

    Another new OWL VIEW Camera Comparison

    The motion settings I may need to tweak as I just installed the camera (plus drilled new holes for the mounting box) this evening. I probably need to set the frame rate and FPS etc. But I will play with that tomorrow. With the IR camera, (that I just removed) there was hardly any detail on...

    Another new OWL VIEW Camera Comparison

    I just replaced my IR 4MP Uniview with a Uniview 4MP Owl View WISE camera. The IPC2B14SE-ADF28K-WP-I1 captures video up to a resolution of 4MP @ 30 fps, which is 2688 x 1520 pixels. The price was $359, which I found on a website and sold by a Security Company in Los Angeles. I have seen this...

    Anybody else having rodents (squirrels, rats, etc.) nesting underhood and/or chewing on wiring?

    Ford Fusion, got in to drive to store. WTF the engine is misfiring and barely running. Opened the hood and found the rat's nest, acorns, shredded hood insulation, and the wiring harness was chewed through. A new wiring harness for my 2012 (old) has to be special ordered, or not in stock. And...

    Warm LED Camera Light

    I have a Uniview Owl VIew which has the 1/1.8 shutter, and "warm light". There are no IR lights. The white light is not on all the time, and (on my camera) you can disable if you wish. This would be the option if the camera is at a place which has good surrounding lights (ie. parking lot...

    New Uniview Owl Wise color IP camera vs IR camera

    No. It is a screen shot on the UI3 taken at 2 AM This was the night of the full moon which was directly behind the outbuilding I have the camera mounted on. Our house is a very light cream color (almost light yellow) and I was totally amazed at the image. Yes it looks like daylight. Here is...

    New Uniview Owl Wise color IP camera vs IR camera

    It's not a sidewalk. Nobody is in the backyard at 2AM so no video of people. There is some motion blur when there is no full moon and the "white light" is not on. With the camera light on, or full moon there is virturally no motion blur. I just installed the camera so I don't have much...

    One camera "no video" for unexplained 6+ hour gap

    UniFi let me set IP for any device as static Both the router and UNIVIEW camera configuration are matched static IP’s DHCP is off at both ends for the cameras The pool is wide open but that’s irrelevant using static as I understand it

    One camera "no video" for unexplained 6+ hour gap

    "Possibility" something to do with router? The Unifi did not have a static IP set, but I remember setting one for each Cam 1 and Cam 2. But today only Cam 1 had the static IP so perhaps something happened? Will monitor it, and it has been reset to static.

    One camera "no video" for unexplained 6+ hour gap

    I don't think the IR died... sunrise and daylight was well before the 8:42 AM when the camera suddenly resumed recording. I checked all the settings on the camera interface and nothing changed. I don't think the camera has a log, not sure will check. The cameras are on static IP's.
