Southwire Cat5e Cable
Fair reasoning. If I am tucked up under the eaves, away from rain, snow, ice, UV rays, would I fall under the indoor category of cable?- Chase

Southwire Cat5e Cable
Southwire 500' Cat 5E Indoor/Outdoor Just wondering if anyone has used this specific cable on their installs outdoors? This will not be direct burial and only partially exposed to the elements like under the eaves. I've looked at Truecable and Monoprice and their prices are outrageous. I...- Chase

Ok thanks for the info. Is there any other noticeable difference between the 2 models besides the quieter motor? -

It’s noticeably loud? Do you have an example you can share? -
Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ
February 2026... not much activity in this thread in the past year. The size of this camera interests me. Is there a "newer" improved model coming out in 2026? Is this PTZ still recommended or considered a good buy? -

Question regarding this camera EmpireTech IPC-Color4K-T180 4K Full-Color 1/1.8" CMOS Dual-Lens Splici How does the “Full Color” mode work? At night time are the warm leds always on? Which is then how it can show color? If so that would be a deal breaker for me. Sorry I tried looking for its... -

Which nvr??
Buy from Andy. He will do you right and will answer any questions you have. I've bought 2 NVR's from him and 11 cameras. I have an NVR without the built in POE. I use 2 switches for my needs. One advantage to using external switches is you might encounter a bad POE port on the NVR. It's...- Chase

DMSS App and IOS 26
Before I update my iPhone to IOS 26 (the latest) can anyone confirm if the latest version of the DMSS app works fine with it? How about the WireGuard App? Thank you -
Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
Tinkering around with image quality. Is AI SSA recommended or not?? I'm currently on Customized Scene but I could be persuaded one way or another. Settings are largely untouched from default. -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
But isn't it odd that in the NVR GUI is still says the System Version is: 3.210.0002.2 and the Build Date is: 07-21-16? So why is it acting weird if its still showing the same information? -

Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
The NVR always defaults to 192.168.1.108. My cameras have remained unchanged. Thankfully. -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
It's my best guess, honestly. :idk: I am logging into the NVR, not from the web gui, but from the NVR software itself. I re-setup from the wizard, start adding cameras again (because they were all removed), and the screen freezes. I can't do anything. The NVR eventually force restarts. The... -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Well shit. Just my luck. I took a picture beforehand of my version number in the GUI and it says: System Version: 3.210.0002.2 Build Date: 07-21-2016 :poop: To those who actually need help with the Color4M-T camera I apologize for hijacking this thread. This all kinda went from one thing... -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
I'm at witts end now... tried both versions and they both failed to upgrade. Tried updating thru configtool as well as USB. Went thru the upgrade process and at the end it resets my NVR. No visual update look and no updated version number after re setting up. :mad: Looks like it might be... -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Does it matter if I grab the firmware from the link you provided or from EmpireTech’s website? -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Do these commands run thru the NVR? My firmware is old and hasn’t been updated. Really don’t know if that would matter in this situation? My NVR 16 channel (5216-4KS2) is a non POE version so my cameras are all on switches. -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Just checked and the settings you mentioned were already set at is. Audio was enabled, One click disarm enabled, disarm by period disabled. Edit: not sure why I can't post an attachment but take my word for it, those settings were as you mentioned. -

Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
I think I meant when I first setup the new camera I manually add it into the NVR by inputting its IP/user/and pw. When I set up on the DMSS App I am just adding the NVR. Can you help me enable these things on the camera because I am flat out missing them. I’ve looked and looked. Maybe it’s... -

I can activate both the warning lights and the audible alarms just fine from the web gui. I can't from the app? -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Well I'm stumped. I am on the latest version of the DMSS App. In the permissions on my iPhone the app has access to my microphone. Every time I click "Warning Light" I get and "Operation Failed" message. Every tine I click "Active Deterrence" I get "Operation Failed" message. When I try 2... -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Do I even need to use the audio in/out rca plugs and the small wires for alarms? I should still be able to 2 way talk from the app and use alarms/lights without using those other cables right? -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Well I’m still using the older version of the app so maybe that is part of my problem? I’ve been hesitant on updating for whatever reason. -
Mini-Review EmpireTech IPC-Color4M-T
Yup all that works for me via the GUI. Not sure how I can manually trigger those warning lights from the app though.
