    Profile management -> Day/Night

    Hi guys, I have what may be a question with an obvious answer. But the subnet that my 5442s are on doesn't have access to the internet. I use a synology server along with SSS. I have separate day and night profiles and the profiles run on a schedule. So at the moment 6:30am to 8:30pm day and...

    Dahua equivalent for the IPC-T5442T-ZE

    Thank you! All my devices are either Apple or PCs running linux. So IE is a difficult option at this time. But I guess I can set up dual boot on one of them and go from there. Thank you very much, I greatly appreciate your help!

    Dahua equivalent for the IPC-T5442T-ZE

    I'm sorry for not knowing the proper terminology, It's the feature where in Live view you see the IVS lines and the detected objects along with the detected objects in the smart motion detection area (if smart motion detection is turned on). Only 2 of my cameras are newer (2021) and I can see...

    Dahua equivalent for the IPC-T5442T-ZE

    I do and I've tried to find it here on the forum, but in multiple threads, people were "ridiculed" for lack of a better word when asking similar questions and pointed to Dahua. The need came up when I was troubleshooting an issue with IVS not working on 2 cameras but I was able to fix it...

    Dahua equivalent for the IPC-T5442T-ZE

    Silly question but what is the Dahua equivalent of the IPC-T5442T-ZE so I can search and download the firmware on their site? I did look here on the forums and couldn't find the right answer. Thank you!

    Recommendation for a small wired camera to supplement doorbell

    Not the prettiest thing for where I'd put it but I'll try to convince my wife...maybe buy her flowers first :) I was hoping for something a tad smaller but it is what it is.

    Recommendation for a small wired camera to supplement doorbell

    I've been looking for a unicorn and have given up: a good doorbell that supports RTSP/Onvif. I've been using the Ezviz one for almost 2 years and I'm tired of it (I choose to avoid a rant). So I'll probably try a Eufy but it doesn't change the fact that it still doesn't support RSTP which is BS...

    Review: IPC-LPR237B-IR / Equivalent of Dahua ITC237-PW6M-IRLZF1050-B - ANPR, Traffic & Access Control Camera

    I'm trying to pull the trigger as early as today after some criminal activity in my immediate area. But I want to figure out how it compares against Hikvision DS-2CD7A26G0-P-IZHS8 or Nelly's IPCT-LPR-832-BT1. Pricing is in the same ballpark. My constraint is that the choke point is 160 feet away...

    Review: IPC-LPR237B-IR / Equivalent of Dahua ITC237-PW6M-IRLZF1050-B - ANPR, Traffic & Access Control Camera

    How far have you guys tested this camera? How would it perform in low light conditions at 165ft? I assume IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E couldn't cut it. Any better options (ideally cost effective) that could work at that distance at night?

    Threshold and sensitivity for motion detection on the 5442

    I'm running them at 15fps. I have 4APs outside of my house, on either side, so reception is not an issue. I've adjusted the intrusion boxes to give them a bit more space away from the edge. And finally, I've just finished following the calibration from the Global Setup tab that looney2ns was...

    Threshold and sensitivity for motion detection on the 5442

    Thank you both very much for all this info. It is tremendously helpful. I've applied it across all my cameras and just did a couple of running laps in the rain around my house. Half of the cameras triggered advanced events and I got the notification on my phone and half of them did not. They are...

    Threshold and sensitivity for motion detection on the 5442

    Unfortunately my fairly new BlueIris server is dead (motherboard and proc, possible other things) for reasons not worth getting into. At this time I am not in a position to build a new machine. But I did have 11 SSS licenses not being used from my previous system. And so I moved yesterday 8 of...

    Recommended settings for IPC-T5442T-ZE

    I've been struggling a bit with finding the right balance of settings for my IPC-T5442T-ZEs. And while I've been trying to learn, I still struggle with the practical purpose/utility of some of them. I know that at some point I came across a post from someone on this forum recommending an...

    Urgent help needed: Lost passwords

    So the video is for an older generation. The 5442 has the reset button next to the SD slot. I opened up one cam, kept looking inside of it and then my wife noticed that on the little plate covering the SD slot it says Reset. First I felt like an idiot and then I remembered that I was on a ladder...
