    LPR with a pair of IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    Here is one at 9:30 with HLC on at 50 and the shutter set at 1/1000. I’ll turn HLC off tomorrow night and compare them. Thanks for the tips.

    LPR with a pair of IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    I tried 1/2000 at night and it seemed iffy as its so dark here at at about 100ft I dont know if I was getting enough IR. I then tested it at 1/1000 and it seemed ok. I then moved it to 1/500 and it was great. I'll try 1/1000 again tonight but I may end up back at 1/500. The only good thing...

    LPR with a pair of IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    The plates are both right about ~100ft. I just turned off WDR and turned on HLC at 50. Do you think that would be better for night or just leave blacklight off totally? Thanks

    LPR with a pair of IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    So I picked up a pair of the IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E cameras from Andy last week and installed them a few days ago. I live on the outside turn of a small circle so I needed to have a pair of these as a lot of people do not have front plates around here it seems like. I have only just started...

    IPC-HFW5231E-Z12 LPR from 137 feet

    I installed a pair of IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E I bought from Andy over the weekend and ran into the same focusing problem you guys are talking about. I installed the Dahua Sunrise Sunset app on my BI machine yesterday and it looks like it worked pretty good last night. I need to do some more tweaking...

    New smart alarm panel recommendations

    hi, I have a 10+ year old ADT panel that I want to replace. All of my windows and doors are hard wired as are the 4 smoke detectors to the panel. When I upgraded it about 10 years ago ADT also added two wireless carbon monoxide sensors and a 2G cell backup that no longer works. What I am...

My kids are older and share a bedroom so its more about seeing if they get up way to early in the morning to come downstairs vs sleeping until its the right time to get...

    Motion detection issues with direct to disk

    hi, I have been running blue iris for about 9 months on an Intel i5 7500t. I have 6 Axis cameras setup, 2 x 1.3mp, 1 x 2mp, 2 x 3mp and 1 x 5mp. I was having fairly high cpu usage (~85%) as I was not running direct to disk and the intel hardware acceleration did not work with the axis cameras...

    High humidity ptz

    hi, I have a large reef tank in my house which has a dedicated 10x12' shed outside that serves as the filter room. I would like to install a ptz camera inside the shed so I can check on filter, gauges, etc as I travel a lot for work. My challenge is sometimes the humidity can be 100% and...
