Thank you. I was able to define an area within 100' and now I'm getting consistent nighttime plate captures. Angles are not bothering captures as much as I thought they would.

I'm having a hard time getting consistent plate captures. I'm on an outside corner, and if I try to set capture area too close, I get extreme angles. If I set range farther out (150'), angle is good, but seems as though built-in IR illuminator is not getting the job done even when set to manual...

Pre-sales recommendation was wrong, needed I-series, not Q-series NVR. Vendor accepted return and I bought correct replacement.

Just purchased LPR camera and NVR (models below) from reputable online retailer with generally good customer service. Asked them to confirm compatibility before buying and they did. I can configure camera license plate capture directly via browser interface, but not through local NVR or via...

Had a power issue and lost connection to NVR. Was able to reconnect to NVR and one camera connected via powerline adapter, but not cameras hardwired directly to NVR. Try as I might, all I can get out of camera config is "The network is unreachable." Don't think cameras have reset button. Turret...

Carl's reviews were great! Last contact I had with Wrightwood was Oct 2018. Excellent support and pre-buy help. Sorry to see them go.

Thanks for the reply. The stuck filter is what happened to the first camera and symptoms were as you described. Replacement camera has developed a different problem. I did reset a couple of times. No change.

I've been trying to contact support at Wrightwood Surveillance in California, but have been unable to get a reply to my emails or voicemails. Anyone know if they are still in business? Hik DS-2CD2542FWD-IWS connects to NVR, but image is all white on display connected directly to NVR. Shows up...

Yesterday, I thought I finally had iVMS-4200 working the way it should after updating camera and NVR firmware. I have three Hikvision cameras (two DS-2CD2342WD, one DS-2CD2542FWD) connect to Hikvision NVR (DS-7608NI-E2/8P), and I could view all three yesterday after firmware update. This...

I have a Hik NVR (DS-7608NI-E2/8P), two turrets (DS-2CD2342WD-I) and a mini dome (DS-2CD2542FWD-IWS). Currently, NVR connects to home network via wireless bridge, turrets are plugged directly in to PoE ports on NVR, and have not yet connected mini dome, but will not be able to hardwire, must...

Thanks Fastb. I had a SkyBell for about two weeks. That sort of functionality is what I really want, not PTT, but SkyBell didn't deliver the goods and I have heard similar complaints about Ring. Surprised there is not an out-of-the-box solution like that at Hik-like prices and which will...

I had and it looks like NVR does, which is why I was optimistic proposed setup would work, but will be bench testing to make sure. Thanks again for reply.

Thanks tangent. So the NVR audio out is not an amplified signal? I was hoping there was some way it would all work with iVMS-4500 app.

I was thinking about adding a speaker to a Hik DS-2CD2542 mini dome with internal microphone install. For instance, mount the speaker just below the camera and tie it all together for 2-way communication, but then I was thinking, would there be a problem with the sound from the speaker being...

10-4. Thanks again!
