Oh, OK. I did not even listen to the video with sound so I wasn’t sure what you’re talking about. Lol I will change that setting. Any thoughts on the position for potential capturing plates at night?

Aight @wittaj @bigredfish, change of plans for the Z4E maybe.....LOL I think I might have found a spot for it to identify plates....fingers crossed! What do you think of the daytime shot? Does you think it has potential at night? I am at full zoom right now. Capture is as cars are approaching...
Thanks for the suggestions. I can run another cable which I knew my dumb ass should have done in the first place...Stupid mistake.
Lastly ( I swear last question for now....lol) I have attached one more video. This is my front porch which faces north. Good amount of shade until early...
Thanks for the reply. On that Z4, I am running 0-4 shutter, but I can increase gain and try to add a IR illuminator and see if that helps . I thought of screwing with the HLC, but I did read it darkens images so I was worried about that. I'll keep fiddling and see what I can do. Thanks!
OK. Makes sense. I’ll try running the slower shutter for now.
Lastly on an unrelated note in terms of cabling. I have a cable that runs from Andys 8 ch 5 series PoE NVR to one of my cameras. I’m thinking about putting an additional cam right next to that existing camera. Am I able to put a POE...
Makes sense. I’ll zoom that Z4 in tonight and see what sort of image I can get with it. I may have enough light to run my overview 5442 in color to try to capture some color images since I have enough IR cameras to get what I need from them. What basic settings do I need to set for that to run...
Gotcha.. Yes the Smart IR works well as people walk up the driveway at night.. I can IDENTIFY well which I think is my goal for those two driveway cams as they approach the house. The "overwatch" camera that is higher up prob not much real use at night since its zoomed all the way out. Its...
Yea, i meant light or dark colored car (not actual colors). Just trying to clean up the IR image I posted. Like Witt said i need more IR light and a few other things, at least that's how I understand it.
Comments from my 5442 post
"OK, I guess I didn't think of distinguishing the objectives of the different cameras. For the 5442's in my driveway, I think I would want to focus on IDENTIFY a person coming toward the house. I did not post a video of that but I took one i think and it was pretty...
OK, I guess I didn't think of distinguishing the objectives of the different cameras. For the 5442's in my driveway, I think I would want to focus on IDENTIFY a person coming toward the house. I did not post a video of that but I took one i think and it was pretty good. So maybe I don't need to...
Thanks for the replying. I should have been more clear... I am not trying to capture license plates. Maybe in the future, but for now, just an overview in that FOV trying to capture general color and style of vehicle.
Good morning,
I have a 3 of these cameras (2 turrets and one bullet which is the one at the higher height in the videos) that I am trying to tweak the nighttime moving vehicles captures. Vehicles are moving 20-30mph and the turrets are fully zoomed and the bullet is not zoomed at all. All on...
Good morning all,
I have the the Z4E and looking for some recommendations on tweaking the nighttime image of vehicles moving past my house at 20-30mph. Camera on most recent firmware. Zoomed in about half way with the following image settings. The lighter colored vehicles seem to get a better...
Oh, ok. I have the T54IR-ZE-S3 like the author here but did not see the iris control option like he had, but I was using chrome. When I get home, I will try in IE and see if the option to control the iris level pops up.
I have the same camera but under Iris mine only has a toggle for "Auto" and not the ability to control the level like yours... Maybe we are on different firmware..Anyone know anything about this?
Thanks.
Gotcha. So no “snapshot” thumbnail of what actually triggered the notification just the same generic thumbnail w time snap for each and every notification. It would be nice to have that so you could quickly browse the notifications without actually clicking and playing them , know what I...
Hey @bigredfish ...Do you use DMSS app for push notifications? Got it all set up on my iPhone and all is working well but was wondering when I get the notification on the iPhone app, is there no way to get an actually thumbnail snapshot with the notification, rather than a generic photo the app...
HAHA Well I got on my wifes WIN PC with Chrome and created the IVS with no problem and it stuck. Hooray! Good grief, now I have to ask her permission to do yet another thing....lol borrow her computer... I am not a windows guy at all.... looked like her machine has Edge on it....can you...
HAHAH no problem.. I should have opened with "I have a MacBook M1 running MacOS." Just didn't think to mention since it seems all the camera settings Ive made have set no problem. Is the IVS drawing issue a common complaint.? I have read on here numerous times that IE is standard but I have...
Yea, "Smart PLan" is where I enabled "IVS" and then attempted to create the "Tripwire" rule... The rule did not stick...
Macbook Air using Chrome if that matters however Ive been using this computer all day fiddling with settings and everything seems to "stick" and function just fine.
Good evening @bigredfish
I am sure this is user error so forgive me. Just got my first camera, (no NVR yet) same as above, to use as a test camera at different install locations. I have not installed anywhere yet cause it's too damn cold here in the midwest so I am just trying to familiarize...
