    Parking lot light pole camera install

    My guess is they are using one of these? I have used them a few times at couple of locations. They might be using a larger version as there are different offerings...

    Damaged camera strange

    So my brothers friend has a camera that had some fogging on lens. I told him I would take a look at it. Lol. First the camera is ugliest I have seen. Second I take camera apart, 2 screws holds on front, remove camera and the cameras mini button style super capacitor that plays as a battery has...

    Parking lot light pole camera install

    Very nice, if you haven't you will want to ground your Surge Protectors, while it might absorb some from a voltage spike but there is no where to discharge it.

    IR halo ring issue in a IPC-B52IR-Z12E S2.

    Normally the gaskets are machine made. I am not sure they have them for replacement unless the camera came with another in the package.. So I don't know how old your camera is but if you live in an area like I do your problem might be related to the gel packs and I would clean the glass and...

    IR halo ring issue in a IPC-B52IR-Z12E S2.

    Not sure on the turret, however if built like my other turrets, 3 screws would hold front back together. How normally different the camera is normally connected to front part of the half, inspect wires if some are same mark wire side and connector side one edge of same so you put the correct...

    IR halo ring issue in a IPC-B52IR-Z12E S2.

    Looks great, something I would look at before to long is replacing the Gel packs in the camera body. Might be a moisture issue over time. With my weather type exposed cameras I change out every year. Some people have never changed them but if I don't I notice fogging some dry up others will pool...

    Need a recommendation for a camera

    You’re right , if someone mentions corridor mode, rotation is usually implied. That’s literally the point I was making: rotation and aspect ratio matter in a narrow hallway, and too many people throw in a VF cam without that context. But hey, if pointing that out makes you uncomfortable, that’s...

    NVR and Cameras on different IP?

    Some NVRs are POE only others will work with Both POE and normal Lan So if you had NVRs like mine then you could scale out your system using POE+ Switch or POE switch if you were never going to use a high power POE camera.. Personally I would use POE+ switches..

    WTF even is this “experience” you’re swinging around like it trumps logic? What your long-a life automatically makes you smarter than everyone else now? Your username alone says enough. Look, I’m not here to nod and smile while someone uses 'experience' as a pass for half-baked setups. Yeah, a...

    NVR and Cameras on different IP?

    Yes you could setup the cameras to DHCP and then connect to the NVRs POE port, Keep in mind that some POE NVRs from Hikvision are really brand loyal. Some can force the cameras others won't work at all. Some might need to make sure that ONVIF is turned on and able to work on the POE portion of...

    Need a recommendation for a camera

    No just don't know how a zoom camera is going to work in a hall that is narrow and long, and get whole scene. My last statement sorry I didn't change the cameras position to match my changing the format. In other words the camera is setup for normal view I didn't change the cameras position on...

    NVR and Cameras on different IP?

    Nvr poe ports normally 10.1.1.xx starting with 65. So new NVR you trying access on same brand NVR or did you mix, then is NVR POE? If not POE then will need ip camera tools to change to your ip that you want to use for NVR.

    Need a recommendation for a camera

    Why would they want a VF camera to run in Corridor mode? I mean to be honest 5mp has the tallest FOV by design. I mean normal small 2.7mm x 13.5mm how is this going to help them to watch a hall. I mean yeah sure if you live in a Maga Mansion and you have a 40 or 50 foot hallway.. All that is...
