    How much did your system cost you?

    There's equipment costs, AND labor costs. Your time to research, purchase, install and the big one - config of the software. Which is a big learning curve & always an ongoing process. My guess is the assumed labor costs far exceed the equipment.

    Shitty End to a Great Weekend.

    I went with the Siemens FS140 - more $$ then most but offers very high surge capacity, and I live in FL. Decent install video here. Siemens FS140 link doesn't work, see attached PDF.

    Shitty End to a Great Weekend.

    NEC 2020 updates include whole home surge protection (Type 1 or 2 SPDs) for new & replaced power service equipment supplying dwellings.

    CCTV layout software?

    Then AutoCAD is not your friend, $$ & big learning curve. Something like Visio is a better option.

    AC inductive effect

    CAT cable has (4) twisted pairs, and each pair have a different twist ratio. This not only helps prevent interference from other cables, but also between each twisted pair. If conduit is not an option, STP (shielded twisted pair) CAT cable & connectors adds another level of protection.

    No image improvement, 1080p camera vs 4k

    Is there any AI solution to identify empty parking spaces?

    Possible to do this using Zone Triggers. Ex. Zone A is the parking spot, Zone B area behind parking spot. Triggers & Alerts when object crosses Zone A -> Zone B, set object size & timing as needed.

    See current frame rate and gain within a set range

    Problem at night

    Test if a power issue by disconnecting one cam and install a temp dedicated power supply - still get lines at night? Since this is only a night issue, check if disabling / enabling the IR light at makes a difference. A power conditioner at the power supply may resolve this. The 50hz/60hz is...

    AV Rack

    Recommend a stand-alone rack with caster base, with a cable leash from the rack into the wall. Rack can be pulled out as needed for front-side-rear access. Leave enough cable service loop from the rack to allow for easy pull out & rear access. Great selection of racks and options ']here.
