Further more the Swann cameras can be added to the list of cameras that will work on the Cobra NVR. Apparently when you first install a camera on the NVR8-8580 It changes the password to what ever you set the password to be on your NVR8-8580. I don't know that all Swann systems do that or just...

Mine is dry, but have seen a lot of it with water in it. Mine isn't sealed at both ends, but you can. I have thhn running through a 1 inch that carries power to my outbuilding and power back to my house from my outbuilding/ generator. That said, I have seen a lot of problems caused by water in...

If you put it in conduit you don't want to use the direct burial cable. It is stiff and you will have a hard time getting it through the 90 degree turns. If you glue your pvc the cable will stay dry and you can use just cat 5e or 6 .

Put it in schedule 40 or 80 pvc. This gives you the option to change or add without digging up the back yard. If you are going to run power (120VAC) a separate conduit for that. I always use 3/4" but that's just me. For a couple of wires 1/2 inch will be just fine. Code is 2 feet deep or...

Back to the HIK Vision NVR. The Swann Home Safe View Will allow the display of HIK Vision Cameras From the HIK Vision NVR. I have not been able to get the Cobra to work here. The pictures of the lamp is the HIKVision Cameras the others are the Swann Cameras. I think where I am headed is Blue...

In the ongoing quest for information, The Blink Camera only appears on my network when I access it with my phone or the motion trigger is activated. The IP is assigned by the router and shows up on the connected devices list. It goes away after 1 minute of activity. The router shows an IP of...

Being a level2 device it would tend to be more reliable, great information. I'm past doing anything commercially but I might have to buy a pair(TEHE) Just to see them work.

Thank you very much.

I have looked at the output file from SADP with several editors, Hex editor, Geany and the like, and searched them for the passwords you gave me, to no avail. I have a friend that was able to determine that the password files stored in VMS are stored at the exact same location in memory, every...

Is it possible to send the output of your POE switch (cameras and voip phones), through these and like devices. This technology amazes me and the price is very affordable for the desired output, remote communications.

The Cobra NVR are back on sale 125 US dollars for the NVR and 2 Cameras. Here is a picture of the set up for the cameras. It appears to be pretty versatile, which, with all the camera makers out there is a good thing. I am sure some of the specs will not exceed do it yourself standards. But if...

When you get old even little successes are a big deal. I changed the ip address on one of the HIK Vision cameras to 10.10.25.158, net mask 255.255.0.0 . I looked on the cobra NVR and It saw it. Add it as onvif and it works. So the HIKVision cameras will work on the cheap 4K NVR from Harbor...

Yea, the NVR"S went on sale back in the summer for 125 for the box and 2 cameras. I needed 4 cameras so I bought 2 for 250 bucks. Work great and allow me to import my Swann cameras for display. Also work with the Amcrest camera. I got her dvr to work so I won't need a dvr for Elk River. I am...

IT'S ALIVE. I cleaned it up, the hard drive was bad. Where they broke off 2 connectors the cameras don't work may be able to solder new ones in if I can figure out if they are terminating or straight through. Also I have the power supply issue to deal with, I got something scabbed in to get it...

NVR's and they work great. I have not got the HIK VISION cams working on this NVR(works on the HIK VISION NVR) yet but I've been busy doing other things. When things slow down I will give it a go.
