    POE switches (outdoor) to reduce cable runs

    Jumping in with a question - Looped wire? Every wire I pull to a camera I pull an extra 10 feet. This is in my attic. I loop the extra wire, bang a staple into a rafter, and attach the loop of wire to the staple with a Velcro wire tie. I thought this was common practice. From what I read above...

    Looking for a knowledgeable paid consultant for setting up a Blue Iris system

    New BI User, call me Overwhelmed

    I wouldn’t say ”spun up”. I managed to get it set up, running and functional. Used the search function here a lot. There are a ton of things I have no idea what they do. I fit Tony’s description above. I do like to tinker.

    New BI User, call me Overwhelmed

    It’s not a terrible learning curve. I’m a ditch digger and I managed to at least be functional with BI. Buy it or use the evaluation period but you need to have a cam or 2 up and running and actually play with BI to learn it. At least I did. When you have an issue just ask. You will not be...

    New Dahua GUI issue with day night

    If the time and date are correct in the camera then it should run. Maybe try a power cycle on the camera just to reboot. I program mine with day, general, night. General is for the transitioning light at dusk and dawn. My time chart looks no different than yours other than the 3rd color. No...

    Video from clients house hit by tornado last week

    Look on the upper right side of the screen, near the gutter. Most likely aluminum trim coil. Starts out nice, looks like it was blasted by a shotgun by the end. Imagine all that small debris flying around, what it would do to a human.

    The vibratory plow "puller" is basically a knife blade with a sling attached for holding pipe or wire. Lower blade into ground, vibrate the blade, and drive slow. Pipe gets dragged underground behind the blade. Damage to ground is really dependent on soil conditions and pulling depth. Roots are...

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    This one works just fine for me, I don’t have 8 cams running off it yet but but the 4 I do have running work just fine with the BI machine plugged into the uplink port. You also get some sfp. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09DRWY7X2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    Is there a thread where you talk about the newer cams and not needing the extra IR? Link? I'll be setting up LPR soon and just want to read what some of you guys are doing.

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    I also have the illuminar unit talked about here. That one says DC12 volt or AC 24 volt input. I have a butt load of 24 volt Ac transformers. Has anyone tried the tendelux unit on 24 volt ac? Will it just not work or will it brick the D110? @Parley and @StevenFromTexas What voltage are you...

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    I just re-read the product description - Input voltage 12 to 24 volts DC. I purchased 2 of the D110 in the past 2 weeks, noticed both have 24 volt wall warts although the directions say confirm 12 volt power supply. Was hoping they were not overdriving the diodes to gain some short term...

    Cat6, Fiber optics, or wireless bridge to shed

    Ok thanks for that -- I'm learning I don't have enough SFP ports so that option is out. What does 2 strand, 4 strand 6 strand mean for the multimode stuff? How many strands are needed for multimode? And is a pulling eye necessary for a 4" conduit pull?
