    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    Looking forward to the night results with IR. Are you using intrusion boxes or trip wires? Here is the excerpt from Dahua Web 3.0 Op manual. There are a lot of stipulations on weather it will trigger.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    Ref: FW dated 210729 Thanks for the suggestions @Wildcat_1. I have done factory reset before and after, and did not import any old settings. The cams are located where I cannot test with a vehicle to see which IVS targets may be at fault. I played around with target filters a little last...

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    Yea the nice beaches of the West Coast of FL. Have not been able to go to the beaches in over 2 months because of Red Tide. not to mention all the sewage that floods out during the heavy rains. ALL the marine life is dead, so forget about going fishing. Sure is nice over here.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    I have 6 Dahua 5442 cameras and upgraded 3 of them to the latest 210729 firmware. I am using IVS intrusion box (human) to trigger Blue Iris. This firmware works good during the day, so far, but testing at night gave poor results or none at all. The cam that did not trigger, had good contrast...

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    I fully understand your decision to leave Commyfornia. May want to think twice about moving to FL, all the scumbags have already beat you to it. This place is not the same it has been, and I am thinking about getting the hell out of here, after 43 years. It is very crowded around here also.

    intruder in the driveway and carport

    Good for you going out and confronting that SOB. I think I might have used those bolt cutters on his head. Maybe take his shoes next time so he may have problems running off. Seems like we need to bring back the use of some bear traps.

    2nd Amendment thread

    We have a grocery store called Sprouts that post the no gun sign out front. Irritates me when I walk in. These are the type of places the lunatics would like to hit. Even more reason to carry in that store. I think I will print some of those cards and post out front. I also notice that some...

    More of Moms Bats

    I only see those larger bats, once in a blue Moon around here. The small bats are here every night like clock work. Even motivated me to install a Bat House, but no luck on anyone moving in, yet. Love the Bats and their eating habits.

    Another Guy Makes A Pit Stop

    Another good video. Why was this IPCT ad under your posting? Maybe pick one of those up for the neighborhood. AI is watching these postings.

    Weird sighting after security system and camera installation

    I agree, I think everyone got hoodwinked from this guy. How did this perpetrator get his daughters phone # to ask about her panties? She counts her underwear?? Sure is easy to work everyone into a froth. As someone else said on this security cam forum, "if it is not on video, it did not happen".

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    Great investigation and resolution on this firmware problem @Wildcat_1 ! Thanks for all your effort to make the 5442's the best cam. I take my hat off to you. I will save your "new" procedure for updating firmware. Probably needs to be archived in WiKi.

    Portable rig...don't laugh.

    Good job. I would rotate that mount 180 degrees to get above all the alum on the crapper.

    Great video. Good job on the tracking!

    Dahua Camera Captures Home Invasion

    So it happened in the LA area? He will probably get 1 week probation, if they even go after him. Just goes to show you this day and age that camera/burglar alarm signs, and motion sensing lights do not mean a damn thing. I have first hand knowledge on that. The only thing these SOBs will...

    Mailbox monitor using Shelly Wifi Motion sensor & Blue Iris

    Good job on the setup. Looks like your mailbox is molded plastic. WiFi may not work very well inside metal mailbox.

    Dahua 2231 NTP Issue

    I also have the sync NTP problem on HDW-4231 EMP-AS camera. @EMPIRETECANDY do you have the latest firmware for these? Will the 2231 firmware work?

    Break-in

    Both vehicles have G Door openers are integrated into rear view mirror. She walked past a $2K electric bike about 10x, but did not take a second look. I keep the battery inside. When the Deputy saw her that next morning, she was on a bike. I was lucky there, I Never leave keys in the...

    Break-in

    I found her arrest record online, but they stopped posting mug shots. $10K bond. Looked up her given address on Google maps and saw her posing out in front of house w/ a Bud in hand. This was from 2019 Google street view and looks like she only has a few tattoos on left arm. She was also just...

    I got a call from the Sheriff dept and they stated that this little thief is now sitting in the county jail on felony burglary. The cameras have won again! Another great job by our Sheriff Dept. Only thing moving around last night was the Coyote. Where was he when I needed him. Set YT...

    Break-in

    I have caved in to setting my alarm system at night, while at home. Something that I have been very hesitant about doing, just for the thought I need to do something like that while at home. Just one more step to protect yourself in the everchanging fucked up world. I guess we can thank all...

    Dahua 2231 NTP Issue

    Yes, Dahua 2231 are the cams that I have a problem with time sync. I have the cameras syncing to the BI server, which uses net time for correct time. The BI server time stays correct, but camera time changes -1 hr over time, even though camera is still pointing to the BI server IP. Have tried...

    Break-in

    Yes, I have pre-trigger alarm notice, but it is not on the most used door. I guess I can place a note on the other doors and use alarm. The ironic thing is, my entire side/bark yard is fenced with 6' wood/vinyl privacy fence except a few places where it is down on the neighbors fence. My...

    Break-in

    I wish it was only 7 minutes. Those videos were only partial. She was in the screened back porch/pool area 2x for a total of about 45 minutes. She spent most of the time cowled in the corner picking up the pool screen skimmer looking at it like it was a mirror. She was probably in the garage...

    Break-in

    You are right, I think she only got my flashlight. There were even rolls of quarters in the center console of the truck, and she looked right at them with the flashlight. It is like she came over to steal something, but forgot what to steal?
