    Audio Over IP, Use Camera Or Another Way?

    What is the most practical way to play audio over IP? I am talking real IP, not audio converters over a CAT6 running some unknown protocol. I have someone who wants to play music outside, and where his cameras are is a good location. Is there a way to tap into the speaker line out on ip...

    Dahua NVR - Facedetection "AI by Camera" not working

    IF you get face detection working, you shoulf be able to have the camera run face detection and the NVR run Human/Vehicle detection. And... Some of the NVRs are limited on how much of what can be used, such as no Face and hum/veh. It's one or the other. The higher end NVRs give more AI options.

    I haven't installed an envisalink with a dsc panel, but other communicators I have used with dsc panels needed certain versions to support remote arm/disarm. Envisalink may do all versions of the 832.

    Question about IPC-B52IR-X3 3x 2MP Perimeter Camera

    But... Just because I didn't reset that one doesn't mean I haven't had to reset other cameras to get them to show up in config tool.

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    Even if a dual IR/White camera never came around, I'd take a 180 cam that had the internals of two T54IR-AS-S3 1/1.8 4MP cameras. Until then I supppse I am just stuck with putting two cameras up.

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    I'm pretty sure a 2x 4mp 1/1.2" IR/White Light 180 camera would sell well, especially if it had good IVS. I'm in a more rural area, so the IR does a lot better than color at night. I also have a customer that I sold on 3.6mm single cameras rather than 180s because he was going to be dependent...

    My camera drops sending signal around 2pm everyday and comes back on around 6pm. See Pics.

    Is the camera in a hot place? I once had a camera looking at a concrete courtyard, two sides were glass high rise, the one side concrete, and the other side open to the evening sun. The sun would reflect off the glass and bake the camera on the wall, which would overheat and shut down.

    Providence, RI planning to install "noise cameras"; detected violators would receive ticket in the mail

    Decibels are measured at a certain distance, so wouldn't they have to have something to determine both decibels and distance?

    Does it matter if you use CAT5e for a long run?

    Rock and water attract lightning. Rock seems worse in my experience. I've had more customers on rocky land get hit than on lakes and ponds.

    Does it matter if you use CAT5e for a long run?

    I've used True Cable outdoor or direct burial CAT5e and CAT6 about five years without issue. I believe their direct burial CAT6 requires using their staggered RJ-45s with larger holes, but the CAT5e can be used with standard connectors. They also have a crimper that scores the jacket well. It...

    Is Andy's stuff sent using the de minimis exception? Everything I have gotten from him came from a US address. If he is using the de minimis exception, he's only sending a several cameras to the US at a time to stay with in it. It's $800, right?

    (Mostly) Software Questions for Thermal Camera IPC-TPC124XB-AI-S2 7/8mm

    That answers most of the questions. Thank you! Why are there coordinates with the positioning system? I checked out your link, and it looks like positioning system would be useful at precalculating zoom at varying distances, but the thermal cam does not have zoom.

    (Mostly) Software Questions for Thermal Camera IPC-TPC124XB-AI-S2 7/8mm

    I'll start with the EmpireTech IPC-TPC124XB-AI-S2 Thermal Network Mini Hybrid Bullet Camera (7/8mm). First, the thermal is extremely useful. I am impressed. The IR camera could be better because of sensor size, but the thermal is useful. I can see myself walking at 550' (167 meters), and if I...
