    Dahua SD59230HNI Auto track instability

    I am out of ideas with this camera. Whether its set to default or set up with different settings, this thing seems drunk. Such nice features but at the price, I am disappointed. May be returning it and waiting for features that actually work. My brother and I both bought at the same time and I...

    Dahua camera feature/price disparity?

    My newly purchased 59230HNI definitely does not track well as far as vehicles. At night it doesn't even try. Considering returning it and getting something better. Guess it is old tech. I should have researched a lot more.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I checked for updates today and it said I have the newest version. Well I don't have the options you do. Wish I did, my issues are strictly problems with vehicles.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    My 59230 AT works real bad. Just got it and I am severely annoyed after numerous attempts to resolve with settings. Considering returning it if it doesn't work properly. Not expecting perfection but it decides to focus on my aluminum siding instead of a garbage truck going past, it is useless.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I purchased a 59230 from Empire Tech on Amazon. Andy is awesome but after messing with it for hours and hours, I reset everything back to default because the auto tracking got horrendously worse. I had a huge garbage truck go past my house about 50 feet away and the camera started to tilt up...

    System conversion from lorex analog.

    My mom's Lorex 4 channel dvr sizzled. I'd like to find an 8 channel. The cameras are fine and they are analog, using BNC type connections. Does anyone have any suggestions on which reasonably priced dvr would be good for this setup? I am very green with these setups since I use Blue Iris at my...

    Recording location files

    Been trying to have a string of jpegs posted to a folder and have been able to, however, the jpegs are 5 seconds or so after the trigger. The clip starts exactly when the trigger happened so I must have something set wrong. My goal is to have a triggered camera save an image every second for 10...

    Two Dahua 5231 with different firmware.

    One if my 5231 has a newer firmware and that one has an SSA option and the other cam does not. Is the firmware interchangeable between cameras? Both bought from Empiretec.

    Wierdness, no signal at same time almost every day.

    Not sure where to start but.. Most days, at 4:41am EXACTLY Blue Iris alerts one of my 5231s disconnect just for a minute or so. This one cam is connected to a mid span POE switch with another 5231. The other one doesn't go "No Signal" at all. Where should I start as far as diagnosing the...

    My brother has this nvr (Swann 7300) and wants to upgrade one camera to a dahua 8232. Im not familiar with the nvr. Will this upgrade be a plug and play job or is there something else we need to do?

    Sending an SMS to phone if hotspot only is triggered.

    Hey guys. Wondering if its possible to have BI send an image to a cell phone if JUST a hotspot is triggered. From what Ive learned here before, I believe I have to set up another camera on the console and have that camera set up with ONLY the hotspot as a trigger. Some guys here are way better...

    POE switch downstream from another POE switch

    I want to dedicate an old 12mm Hik as an LPR cam. I am lazy and don't want to run another cable. Is it possible to add a POE switch near the existing camera? In other words, I want to unplug the existing camera, plug that cable into a switch, and then run 2 short cables. 1 to the existing and...
