    Dahua Starlight Mini-Dome 3.6mm (IPC-HDB4231C-AS)

    Good point about potential bricking it.. I'm going to mess around with it a bit more. I'm fairly certain the cabling isnt the issue. I tested the cable with a network cable tester and everything lit up fine. The issue is the camera occasionally doesn't display the feed (all my other cameras come...

    Dahua Starlight Mini-Dome 3.6mm (IPC-HDB4231C-AS)

    I knew you were going to reply with this.. I've been having connection issues with my IPC-HDB4231C-AS. It has older firmware on it (from July) compared to all my other starlights which have December firmware. After messing around with it and having no success, I figured I would try to find a...

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    I have the NVR5216-4KS2 and recommend going with this model compared to the integrated 16P POE model. Pick up a sub $100 8 port POE switch and you'll have a great setup.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Yup, the web interface and options are the same as the other cameras. I can switch the IR on manually but it doesn't do anything.. obviously since the wires aren't connected.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Another weird thing about this particular camera is the serial number.. My other two HDW5231's have similar serial numbers (just the last 2 numbers are different) but this one that's missing the IR connector has an entirely different serial number, nothing like the other two.. kinda weird.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Thanks for checking and the photos! As I suspected, I may be SOL since there's no header/plug for the wire to connect to.. I'll dig around in my electronics box but doubt I have the correct part. If not, hopefully Andy can swap me out with a different camera.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    So an update to the IR lights not working on one of my cams: As was recommended, I took the camera's case apart and found the IR wire was entirely disconnected.. however, I cant seem to find where it connects to. I've taken the entire board out of the case and inspected it, yet still can't find...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Well, out of the 3 HDW5231R-Z's that I just received, one has IR lights that don't work. Tried everything but can't get them to come on. Running the latest firmware. Anyone else having this issue?

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    I plan on using one of these cams with a PFA151 corner mount. I currently have a IPC-HDW5231R-Z on the corner mount now. I recommend you check out this option. Once I receive this PTZ cam, I'll upload a few updated photos.

    Cut the cable

    If I'm running POE, can I cut off the extra 12v barrel plug? Any one do this with no issue?
