New Dahua Cameras will not remember NTP server
Thanks I tried that. Really acts weird when I uncheck DST and check NTP and save configuration, it sets time back one hour from correct time and in 1 min or so then changes to correct time. I asked Andy if he had any ideas. Thank you M -
New Dahua Cameras will not remember NTP server
I have 10 new IPC-HDW5231R-ZE cameras. I love the cameras except one issue. When I enter the NTP server info and check the NTP server check box and save the configuration the cameras sync the correct time. About 1 min later the time is wrong (off by 1 hour ahead) and when I look in settings... -
microSD card verification
Since I don't have a Windows PC I can not run any of the popular SD card routines like H2testw to find bad or fake SDs. I usually just check the SD cards using my iMac with the disk utility by running a secure disk wipe which writes random patterns then over write the entire disk with zeros... -
How much data can a SD card hold...
Thanks for the replies. Is there a brand and model that works best in the newer cameras? What Read/write speeds should the card be? M -

Your a great help Fenderman, being a staff member I guess I figured you would help new members not chastise them. Oh Well... not playing your games! CYA M -

Did I make a Mistake?
Using the NVR as a NAS if you will. Eg... "Really no need to do anything with cameras except record data with accurate timestamp on ten IP cameras with good resolution" Thanks for the flame... M -
Did I make a Mistake?
Thank you. As far as Security System, I am a retired (34 years) USAF engineer/Computer Scientist. I did all the circuits myself and that all I can say. Look forward to the testing of a couple Dahua cams... M -
Did I make a Mistake?
I have a very custom elaborate security system. Really no need to do anything with cameras except record data with accurate timestamp on ten IP cameras with good resolution. The short answer is no. M -
Did I make a Mistake?
The NVR had no issues with a Hikvision I tested. Finger crossed. NVR has been great (knock knock), so no plans to replace it. Thank you M -
Did I make a Mistake?
I did read the specs. My question is does it work well in the "real world". example when talking about ONVIF Manager - Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z) -
Did I make a Mistake?
Wondering if I made a mistake buying a couple of Dhaka cameras (IPC-HDW5631R-ZE & IPC-GDW5231R-Z) to test before buying all that I need. Today when I put a temporary camera in for a Vivotek that crapped out, I remembered that on my 12tb NVR that it is setup up to use only ONVIF cameras. In... -
USA Equivalent Model number for IPC-HDW5231R-Z ?
Thanks Andy. Private conversation sent. M -
USA Equivalent Model number for IPC-HDW5231R-Z ?
Great info so to be concise... There is no equivalent camera. Which is fine, because you members found a niche in the market with the IPC-HDW5231R-Z. Nice !! -
USA Equivalent Model number for IPC-HDW5231R-Z ?
Is there a USA Equivalent Model number for IPC-HDW5231R-Z ? In the US Dahua Catalog there are only 3 Starlight Turret models that I can find. N224BG52, N51B122 & N51B123. Also I would like to thank members who keep pushing Dahua. Cant wait for side by side comparisons with the HikVision &... -
How much data can a SD card hold...
Thanks for the response. Trying to put my arms around if even having a SD card is necessary. The cameras without are less expensive as well as the 128gb cards cost. My old cameras are 7-10 days of recording which I considered useful. M -
DS-2CD2335FWB-I .vs. DS-2CD2355FWB-I
I am considering the Dahua. A side by side comparison would be great. Which Dahue is the best in the 2-5MP range. I might order one of each to test. Would like to down select to the best Hikvision and the best Dahua Turret models in 2-5MP range. I need 10 cameras so finding the best camera... -
DS-2CD2335FWB-I .vs. DS-2CD2355FWB-I
I am seriously considering the turret type Hikvision cameras. I was wondering if anyone tried both the 3MP and 5MP models. I had noticed in the Dahua comparison between the 4MP and 3MP that the 3MP was better in low light. Wondering about the Hikvision? Also has anyone ever seen an image... -

Sorry I see that I forgot to include the setting for the DS-2CD2142FWB-IS. See below. M -
How much data can a SD card hold...
Looking at a 4MP Hikvision camera setups. Max SD size is 128 GB. H264 encoding. Realistically how many hours before over writing starts say with 15-20fps. In general terms, I know scene and lighting contribute. Thanks M -
So what is the secret with the NPT on Hikvision cameras
Well ____ me !! You are so right when I reset the camera back to default it hard wire the IP. Works great now... Just set back to DHCP, slipped my mind about that. THANK YOU Securame !! M -
So what is the secret with the NPT on Hikvision cameras
The Cisco router is managing internet traffic. Never had any alerts since system was setup. This is VERY strange as all my other cameras use NTP = time.nist.gov port = 123. I just tested it on an extra camera I have and it worked perfectly. Tried updating the firmware. no glory. M -
So what is the secret with the NPT on Hikvision cameras
Connected thru a Cisco GB Switch and a Cisco GB Router just like the rest of the devices. (security system, Thermostat etc...) I have a NVR also hooked up to the same Switch and it syncs its NPT time every 3 hours. Thanks for the responses :-) M -
So what is the secret with the NPT on Hikvision cameras
I set up all kinds of devices in our home using "time.nist.gov" on port 123. Hikvision just gives me test failed. Sorry for such a simple time but I'm stumped. M -
Ideas for replacement cameras
Been studying. I am thinking I like the turret over the dome, but until tonights test of the 4MP FWD dome the jury is still out. I really want audio which is the biggest Con to the 4mp Turret FWD IMHO. Still have to get my arms around the "fisheye effect" of the 2.8 and the 4mm. See photo of... -

So far my camera system video has been used by law enforcement convictions in 2 cases. I would not be able to show those 2 but basically we had a group of teens that park at the end of street and try every vehicle for valuables and their garage openers. We also had a pissed off 19 year old boy...- Gadget -X

Ideas for replacement cameras
k. I fixed my original post seems I left off the F. I also noticed with the new cameras that the slight fisheye in the 2.8mm & 4.0mm. Is there some point that the frames are square?
