    Hey @Defender574 ...I am interested in purchasing this PTZ and have a soffit issue like you do so I am trying to figure out the logistics of what mount/junction box I may need to try to clear as much of the soffit as I can. I see you discussed the mounting options here as well...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    Yea man the angle kills me but my home is on a big sweeping curve and I dont have ANY good angle so I do the best I can . That Z4 is zoomed all the way in. I get great captures in the day and like you mention, at night it is much more difficult. Below you can see the older style reflective...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    Yeah, totally makes sense. I know you guys always preach about one camera not being the end all. I do have 3 other T54-IR in addition to that 180 in the front of my house to capture approach to the front porch and two under the garage. That 180 is a nice overview camera as you say, I’m just...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    Sorry may have posted wrong screenshot. I access all cams like you guys have always instructed and make all changes through Cam GUI via the little E Also, when you say you have AcuPick off, are you saying through Cam GUI when I go to "AI" and then "Smart Plan" to turn OFF AcuPick? What other...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    3.) I also pulled up cameras on Win PC via NVR LIVE and "Animal" is in the upper left corner too.. I forgot to mention "Animal" only appear on the T54 IR , NOT on the B54IR-ZE or Z4E... and not the 4KB180 (which I think I mentioned earlier).....weird

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    1.) Where would I find what you refer to in the NVR web interface? 2.) Maybe Ive confused you or myself....Ive NEVER been able to get animal IVS triggers on my iPhone with previous version of DMSS all the way back to when that firmware upgrade came out even though you and others report in the...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    1.) All my IVS rules have been made through each of the respective cameras own interface. Here is what the NVR menu looks like 2. ) In terms of animals on the DMSS app, I could NOT get animal notification on the previous version of the app before I ungraded. 3.) That LIVE view was from...

    Good afternoon, I have several of the above cams and a NVR 8CH-8P-2AI. I have attached photos of firmware and a screenshot of the settings a typical cam at my house. 1.) Why is the word "Animal" in the upper left hand corner of all my T54IR with the below settings. The cam in lower middle is a...

    DMSS mobile app thumbnail images - supported?

    Any ideas come to mind as to why I cannot get notifications on DMSS for animals. Tripwire and intrusion for "Human" and Motor Vehicle" work just fine. My 5 series NVR detects animals just fine (have several 5442-S3 cams with latest firmware for animals) and I can search for animals on the NVR...

    Again thanks a lot for the detailed explanation. I think this is starting to make sense to me. I’ll screw around with it for a little while and see what I like best. I appreciate the help and suggestions.

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    Just so I understand this correctly, you can enable or disable AcuPick per individual camera and not just on for ALL cams connected to NVR or all off? Also what’s “mini IVS”. Lol. I’m sure I’ll recognize what you mean once you explain it a little bit. I have to say, these cameras with the...

    Review: EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3 - 8MP / 4K Turret Camera

    You seem to have a very good working knowledge of Metadata and AcuPick so I figured I would ask you. I bought a NVR8CH-8P-2AI which I believe is 5 series??? It has AcuPick. I also have several 5442-S3 cams and Z4-S3's. With that said, with the settings I have enabled (see screenshots) I have 3...

    DMSS App: Motion Events don’t always display the Thumbnail

    Thanks for the update. I can see all the thumbnails and videos on the NVR correctly as you do. I think the app is just glitchy sometimes. I cannot find a rhyme or reason of why sometimes the thumbnails do not show up for any of my cameras on the app. I’ll take a look at that app that you...

    DMSS App: Motion Events don’t always display the Thumbnail

    I did have that enabled and tried it with it not enabled and it made no difference. While Im thinking about it, I turned that snapshot off on one of my other cams and the snapshots still got captured and pushed to the phone. Is that because I have the snapshot schedule also set in the NVR?
