    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    Did not check image quality from Tinman. Just satisfyed by tripwire working so good. But to see how this thread evolved is great. From random LED triggers to a full masterclass on exposure and light management :) The factory reset clearly fixed the Smart Illu issue, and now it’s all about tuning...

    At least after the reset it seems to work pretty much the way it’s supposed to so it’s not the same kind of mess I have seen with the UniFi cams.

    Great test, @Tinman looks perfect by day. If the LEDs act differently tonight, it’s probably the night profile quietly reenabling Smart Illumination logic in low light. That’s when the camera starts reacting to any Human in the full FOV instead of just the Tripwire zone. I am excited :D

    If Smart Illumination was really off, then the 60 sec light can only come from a leftover Smart-Illu state or a firmware bug. a quick test is to set the IVS warning light to 5 s if it still stays on for around 60s, it’s not IVS but the global Smart-Illu timer kicking in. Right?

    That’s exactly the kind of behavior I’ve seen with UniFi Protect cameras as well. The AI runs full-frame detection first, then checks if the target happens to intersect any rule or zone. In real-world angles that often means a person walking far off in the background can still trigger a light or...

    I guess, but maybe Andy can tell more? The camera’s AI is tuned to treat “Human” classifications with higher confidence than “Animal.” So when it detects a person, it may briefly activate the warm LEDs as an assist light, even without Smart Illumination or a full IVS trigger. But when it sees an...

    @Tinman, just curious — when the warm LEDs came on that night, even though Smart Illumination was off in your profile. Would be interesting to see if you notice a one-second light pulse or a quick flicker right before the person leaves the frame.

    That difference in perspective has a big impact on how accurately the AI interprets the Tripwire interaction.

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    Correct me if this is wrong: ROI doesn’t apply to IVS at all – only to motion detection or exposure. For IVS, the rule itself acts as the ROI, and the AI still analyzes the full frame before checking whether a bounding box actually crosses the line or zone. Global Smart Illumination can indeed...

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    Sry for confusion ROI is used only for motion detection or image exposure, not for IVS/AI events. For IVS (Tripwire, Intrusion, etc.), the rule itself acts as the ROI — the camera’s AI still analyzes the entire frame to detect and track objects, and then checks if any of those bounding boxes...

    Actually, that’s only true for older models like the 3449Pro. The WizMind 5 Series can trigger Smart Dual Light and other linkage actions directly from IVS events. The IVS rule itself acts as the ROI — confirmed in the Dahua NVR User Manual V1.0.0 (2025, Ch. 6.1.3 & 6.2.1) and the 5459HP datasheet.

    you’re right that in older Dahua NVRs, “triggering other channels” was mostly used for PTZ actions like presets or tours. But with the newer Dahua WizMind cameras and 5xxx series NVRs, the Linkage Actions go further. According to the Dahua NVR User Manual V1.0.0 (2025), Chapter 6.1.3 Alarm...

    Nice Upgrade Tinman! Vote for pajamas @steve1225, just to clear this up: a Dahua NVR can link a Tripwire (IVS) event to multiple actions and even trigger other cameras. According to the official Dahua NVR User Manual V1.0.0, Chapter 6.1.3 “Alarm Settings” and 6.2.1 “Alarm Event Settings”...

    China’s 2018 ban on plastic waste imports didn’t solve the problem—it just shifted it. A big share of China’s own plastic now leaves the country through exports. Goods are heavily over-packaged, so when they’re shipped abroad, the packaging waste is exported too. The economic logic is simple...

    The biggest problem I have with Unifi is the integration between Access and Protect. They don’t communicate with each other the way I would expect. As a result, what is supposed to be an ecosystem creates unnecessary problems, and it no longer feels like everything comes from a single source.

    You mean you can Not Set crossline as you like? Thats completly different to what we have Seen in the Screens before. And also in Video where he shows the detection from far away. So could someone confirm this? Did you look behind Advanced Settings in drop down menu?

    Would like to go back to my idea with turning light on while using multiple cams on one crossing line. This could work with Home Assistant if it gets set up. Does anyone use it with EmpireTech cams?

    Ok but you can set this behavior in NVR? I would like to use 2 T54pro ZE around the entrance at my garden. While one would have clear sight, the other will not. But both should turn on the light by entry. „ Please remember that I used camera with tele-photo lens (Z4E)“ Is there a Turret...

    That’s exactly the reason why I want to jump on board now. If the AI was already better than Unifi’s before, then with Xinghan it should only get better. An important point you mentioned: usage outside the WLAN worked flawlessly. The interface was also very good. However, when there are only a...

    so how good is the ai and Zone based detections right now? As for me, the funcrions from Unifi AI and there whole Settings with this cams was a really poor experience. I do not want to spend month again in finding bugs in Software and be a Part of a Beta Community for Full priced products.
