    Better Camera Placement

    Currently no, that car is parked on a side driveway/parking pad not in front of the house. But I have this view, sort of.

    Better Camera Placement

    Honestly, never thought about crossing the driveway cameras over each other. My main concern is the current setup has almost no view of the front lawn between the house and the street other than the right side of the corner camera (Bullet). Crossing the driveway ones might help with this since...

    Better Camera Placement

    Please check out my kindergarten drawing below and offer some opinions. I currently have 3 cameras placed roughly where the red triangles show. I am now thinking to switch it to 2 cameras in the blue locations. My goal is to optimize view across the front of the house (street) and cover the...

    EmpireTech Cameras Lose IR at Midnight EVERY night

    Thanks, I fixed all gaps yesterday! Just haven’t updated here yet as I need to check last night and see if everything is resolved. I find it easiest to draw then manually input each time instead of dragging the sliders.

    Just weird I have 4 of the same model and only the 2 "newer" ones seem to be so "spotlighted" and not spread out

    It's about 8' off the ground, mounted under the soffit. I had to turn the camera down a buit towards the ground as I was getting IR bounce off the white soffit before.

    In addition, the "HouseNorth" and "HouseSouth" cameras were purchased later than the other T54IR-ZE cameras and the "newer" ones seems to be more of a spotlight/hotzone IR than the others...I still have 2 REOLINK cameras in the system, both of the "BACKLAWN" title cameras, their IR is so much...

    Look at "HouseSouth" at midnight when it goes off and back on, the IR never comes back on.

    Strange because the "HouseSouth" has no other external lights affecting it. The "DriveSouth" is the one with the sconce light and I had also considered that as an issue. At one point the IR from the camera was making the photocell on the light think it was daytime and switching that light off...
