    I’m directly on the NVR. My laptop has no Ethernet ports and my modems LAN ports aren’t working either. I’ll be getting a usb-c Ethernet adaptor tomorrow and plugging directly into the NVRs network port - will that work to access the cameras direct web GUI page? I’m a couple of weeks off...

    I've got the LPR camera up and this is what I'm getting currently. Photos taken with my iphone off what I see on the nvr. What settings can I dial in for night time ? the photo I took which is LPR3 or LPR5 looks like the ideal car location to get the plate. It might be possible to make that tree...

    This is what my fence guy came up with for the lpr temp post. My ideal mounting height is 2.5M because that’s where the cable is but I asked him to make it adjustable down to 2M in case 2.5M doesn’t work out and height is my problem. As for the LPR camera itself this is how it would be...

    my installer should be coming around later this week to install the cameras, one thing I am a bit unsure on though is the cameras going under the eaves. I did ask Andy about junction boxes and he sent me ones for where cameras going on brick, but he hasn't said much about the ones under the...

    with the lpr cam and the way it captures number plates. is it just recording and then when you need to check an incident, do you just scrub through the video and pause it, and take a screenshot? or is it something else like automatically taking snapshots for example? the reason I ask is all...

    I followed the YT link to install the HDDs. on the first one, I couldn't make out from the video exactly which holes I was supposed to line up the hard drive with and after I installed it I noticed the power and sata cable plug were bent over like this. I removed the HDD to re-align it and...

    I completed my purchase with andy and went for the upgraded NVR. For storage, I should use 2 x 8TB drives is that right ? I’m looking at the WD Purple 3.5” HDDs does it matter whether it’s 5640 or 7200 ?

    I heard that turret cameras don’t require the mounting junction box. They can be mounted on walls and eaves and look much neater on a house that way. But I’m unsure how true this is ? Also, any issue if say I start with just 1 x Z12 and just capture plates in one direction and add the second...

    I've attached here a pic based on your suggestion, is this where you mean to put it? when mounting under an eave does it needed any additional bracket or how is it supported in place?
