Polarizing Filter
Anybody ever use a polarizing filter on their camera? My PTZ is very dialed in except for certain times of the day in where when a vehicle is parked in the FOV, the bright reflection off of their windshield steals the show and tracking stops there. May try anyway. -
IPC49225XA No SD card
Hey man! Sorry about the confusion with the name change. Just didn't think any part of my actual name was that smart. Format: I took the card out of the returned 49225 and put it into the replacement 49225. I left the card alone and figured it would work. So, no formatting was done from the... -
IPC49225XA No SD card
Not looking to do any mods since I just received this. Just looks like a sloppy solder job. 1 or more of the pins may possibly not be soldered on the board contact, not sure but no card is recognized and I have some Pro cards of different brands and none are recognized. They all work in multiple... -
IP issue - Can't find Dahua camera
run Command prompt and run ipconfig/all and check your IPv4 address and that it is on the same subnet as the Dahua's usual default subnet. Dahua typically is 192.168.1.108 -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
So I submitted to moving the tripwire to the right of the stupid pole to eliminate the problem of the tracking stopping at the pole. Of course this eliminates the problem with cars tracked from that direction, (left to right) however it seemed to also almost eliminate the same problem with cars... -
"Affordable" PTZ Starlight Cam?
Personally, to date, Andy has been great. -
"Affordable" PTZ Starlight Cam?
I have the 49225XA and for the money, it cannot be beat. Didn't know what your setup is but I get the whole CFO business. This camera will require POE+. If you don't already have it then you will be spending on that too. I know couches are never comfortable. Just a heads up. -

LMAO! I told my gf that last night. -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
Privacy mask didn't resolve it but thank you, at least we tried. -
IPC49225XA No SD card
Switch... Important to realize that the only thing that changed in the system is the camera. Same switch, same card, same Firmware, tried original firmware too, same everything. The attachment to the board is a tad ugly in my opinion. Must have been manufactured at 4pm Friday, its Miller time... -
IPC49225XA No SD card
Here we go again. What a time consuming process this has been with prior focus issues and waiting 6 weeks for a replacement. My replacement PTZ does not detect the SD card. So far, I tried: Disconnected power for 5 minutes. No good Remove sd card, test in PC, works fine. Format card and... -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
Wishful thinking about unplugging the PTZ for a few minutes. No deal, climbing up tomorrow. FML -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
I masked it out. Will see tomorrow if tracking is effected and if it helps. Really don't care about seeing the pole in the clips. After all, I am recording to watch people and cars, not poles. -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
Thanks Fenderman. Are you saying to use privacy mask in the PTZ? Not sure where in the settings it is but will delve into it. Have seen it in BI but don't know if a BI setting will effect the PTZs function while tracking although I have had the PTZ move at precisely 12:00am to another preset for... -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
I have actually posted a clip of what happens when the tripwire was much further left of the pole. It would pan left to latch on and did but would again, stop at the pole, and as you say, "already started tracking". -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
It is even worse to the right. There's a damn tree that stops the PTZ dead about 80% of the time. GF won't let me chop it down so here I sit and grunt watching the daily clips. LOL I tried to back off the target tracking size so the tree takes up a lot less FOV, No Bueno, same deal. -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
Post #4 shows before & after. I have to get on the roof and resolve my SD card issue. This PTZ is a replacement of the SAME model number and the card was simply moved from the old PTZ to the new and the interface shows no SD card. Weird. SAme card used in the other PTZ, same FW too. After I... -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
So finally had an opportunity to test the results of moving the tripwire closer to the center of frame. Failure! Found the solution... That pole and the tree on the other side will be knocked down LOL -
Scheduling a camera to trigger a ptz when triggered.
Thanks! Already understand setting up the spotter camera, just couldn't figure out how to go about scheduling it. Will test tomorrow after 6am. The setup is basically to monitor the vehicle for thieves since the PTZ is 100 times better at getting detail than the spotter which is an old Hikvision...- FlipNJ

Scheduling a camera to trigger a ptz when triggered.
I am trying to figure out how, if possible, to only have a spotter camera trigger a ptz during evening hours. A vehicle is only parked at night in a certain spot and I don't need the ptz to be triggered to that spot during the day when the vehicle isn't there.- FlipNJ

IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
I know from experience there seems to be voodoo going on. The weirdest little thing can make a huge difference in function. Changes need to be made one at a time and close attention has to be paid. Really cool though. I usually export the settings before making changes just in case. There is no... -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
Yes will see tomorrow. Definitely not a great situation in which cars are flying left to right and the ptz is moving right to left to start the track. The poor camera is probably perceiving an already speeding car to be going twice as fast. Maybe I should put one of those plastic speed bumps in lol. -
IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
Going to try moving the tripwire closer to the pole this way it isn't tripped until the cars are closer to where the camera is homed. This may help so the ptz doesn't have to move left first. tomorrow will be the test. -

IPC49225 Possible Solution for loss of track.
This replacement camera has been great but I am trying to see if anyone here, who is very fluent in Dahua settings can shed some light on possibly reducing this camera's interest in a stationary object hijacking the track. As can be seen in the clip, the camera picks up the moving vehicle and... -

Recommendation for a friend.
Sorry to take the lazy route but here it goes. A friend of mine is putting together a new system and I wanted to recommend 2mp Dahua starlights. I have a bunch of 5231s but can't find them. Is there an alternative for the price range of 150 190? Bought all my cams through Andy. Should probably... -
49225 XNA Good but annoying when it matters.
It has arrived! It is up and already the focus is sooo much better than the last one. Still need to fine tune things. Had to update the firmware cause tracking wasn't working out of the box. For some reason my presets are way off even though I saved the camera's settings and imported it. Easy... -
49225 XNA Good but annoying when it matters.
Awaiting patiently. New camera coming from China. Been hung up there with no progress shown. Been in Shenzhen China for 2 days now. Possibly just tracking info isn't updated. Looking forward to getting a PTZ back up. Over a month now but understand the holiday slowed up the process. -
49225 XNA Good but annoying when it matters.
UPDATE: Just heard back from Andy. He said there is a broken key part. Dahua is attempting to fix it and if can't fix it will send a replacement. Requires about another 10 days. I still didn't get it back. Emailed Andy last week for an update and he said the guy in PA never told him he...
