NA Models of 5231 & 5442?
That’s what I’ve observed. The famously well performing cams like the 5231 and others have no USA market counterpart that I can determine. I was just curious. Are these cams in America? Thanks. -

NA Models of 5231 & 5442?
I’ve heard that, but I’m still interested in knowing if certain cams are being distributed with other modem numbers in other markets yet are virtually identical. -

thanks for your reply. I think I understand it better now. I think he updates page one with new FW links. Somehow I downloaded a word doc with links and was expecting that to be the latest recommended and the DropBox links failed to work.This afternoon I wanted to do the FW update but that never...- MacFun

NA Models of 5231 & 5442?
Just out of curiosity are there Dahua cams intended for the North American market that directly match the specs of the now famous 5231 EZ (turret) and the new 5442 that some say replaces or competes well against the 5231? Are the same exact cams in NA but sold under a different model number and... -

Mounting 5231 box or not?
Okay, referring to a turret cam manual, I’ll use the precise Dahua terms. What I was calling a trim ring, they call a Pedestal. And the cover around the eyeball with the security Allen type screw is called the Enclosure... -

LinkIng to a 10,900 word essay talking about the ups and downs of various firmware versions are not so useful. Seriously, what’s the latest, recommended, proven version?!???- MacFun

Mounting 5231 box or not?
Stupidly, the trim ring on the 5231 has an opening to allow the cord to be external. This seems beyond stupid. So, how do you deal with a big hole in your otherwise water tight assembly? It seems like the cam could fill with water from that ridiculous hole. -

How to change from PAL to NTSC?
It's a personal choice. As a broadcast production guy it gives me pleasure. Also, I recall Andy saying this could be changed. The dropdown shows no NTSC option. -

Configuring Date/Time
Right, I did not port-forward any cams..... but I also did not do anything special to stop them form phoning home. as I recall. Should I just remove the gateway info or the DNS settings in the cam. I'll look for a cliff note on this. -

Dahua Logo Vs No Logo?
Right, the problem right now, I don't understand what version of FW for the 5231 is valid, tested, and verified.... ready for prime time. Do I have to read through the 9 recent pages of forum posts to figure this out...? I wish finding the latest recommended FW was an easier process. Sometimes... -

Configuring Date/Time
Agreed, I think my 5231 can hit the internet..... I'll look for the cliff notes.... just removing the gateway breaks the connection? Or, do you get fancy with Vlans or does your router have separate physical port...? I know this should be hardened. I need to reeducate myself. I did create... -

Dahua Logo Vs No Logo?
I'm referring to 2018 cams that Andy sold to members of this community. Apparently there were some branded and some not. Back then there was no mention of Loryta. If you look at the recent firmware links there are more than one per cam.... somehow the cams are different since the firmware is... -

Well, it was recently recommended that we update our 5231 firmware. Also, with all other products we are proactively updating firmware and I'd like to follow that best practices process. So, with that said, and since the hoops are not a problem for you. Can you please provide a link to the...- MacFun

Why does the Dahua firmware upgrade process suck?
Hi Mark, I understand, but I might want to update to the latest official release. Why are we jumping through these hoops, because we are using international cams in North America?

IPC-HDW5231R-ZE Firmware?
When I login to my 5231 and navigate to the Update tab, I see that there is an "Online Upgrade" option. When I click the "Manualy Check" button it says that my "System Version 2.622.0000000.18.R, Build Date: 2017-11-10" is the latest version. Shouldn't this indicate there is a newer version of... -

Why does the Dahua firmware upgrade process suck?
The procedure for Dahua firmware upgrades really sucks. Jumping through the hoops..... 1) locate the firmware and DL; 2) Log into cam GUI; 3) save config; 4) reboot cam; 5) install new firmware; 6) factory reset; 7) find your cam on a subnet you are not normally using; 8) update settings... -
