Got home about 45 minute ago and pulled nvr. Reseated hard drives and board connections. It seems to be working as should except renaming cameras on boot up.
I hope it was that easy and it stays stable.
I am logging into nvr directly with IE. But to log into cameras I only use IE.
I have had the other system in place working damn good for over 3 years with 16 cameras.
Update did tje refresh on camaras and nvr didnt seem to help much.
A reboot did seem to make things better.
But having issues now on playback of recordings it skips section or hangs up.
As much as I hate it, may try new fw update.
Read through dome other post with simular problems.
The hatd drives in mine are 2 WD purple 8tb. One is new one came out of old system working perfectly.
The nvr is brand new from Andy .
Will look and post firmware version when I get home later.
It seems when I go back to view recordings in either AI IVS or search the video starts playing and as soon as an event happens or about halfway through it stops and jumps ahead a few seconds. I cannot force it to show that section of the video.
Tried the stuff recommended and doesn't seem to help. Messing with WDR . install new one on front porch seems to have same issues. Firmware is different on the two.
What's weird though is I have a bunch of the 2mp varifocals I am replacing with these 4mp. The 2 mp didn't seem this picky and are still working fine with tripwire.
Thanks guys I will give some of this a try. I do believe it has to do with contrast also. The only time it might trip now when someone is coming out of house.
OK lets go back to this
I have new Dahua NVR with new IPC-T5442T-ZE
still having trouble getting event triggers to work.
They work maybe 1 out of 10 times. I have tried a bunch of different event trigger, with and without target filter.
jmcu,
Thank you
I have all the ivs stuff marked but missed the stuff in schedule.
It won't let me select more than one at a time.
If I select general and then intelligent it deselects general.
I use smartpss for view only for my wife with auto login. Thats the only way she knows how to bring up cameras. I leave it up all the time.
I prefer NVR for playback.
Dropped IE mode and logged in whole different format. Seems I can get to everything just gotta learn my way around.
Live view will only show 4 cameras and don't see how to change it.
I am using IE mode and it had no problems with other nvr. Something weird to me is I put one of the HDD drives from my other system in this one formatted but all my camera setting I had set up on my other nvr seem to be the same on this one ?
Thanks for the replies.
We are about to start building a new house ( I know we must be crazy).
I wired my camera system here with cat 6.
Just looking for somefeedback on cabling. I will have the new house wired when built.
