    Mini Dome on the side of stucco

    Yes that’s right, those are exactly the bricks they are. Thank you. I was thinking that I would mount the cameras at 93” from the floor. This is what I am doing inside on most. 5’ is probably better for facial recognition but this is indeed a business and I agree that I don’t want anyone...

    NVR Starts up then shuts down and beeps

    OK, It was sending a resolution out that my monitor did not recognize. I had to download the config tool and do everything via IP. I had tried this earlier, but relized that the config tool doesn't recognize the NVR until after it has initilized.

    I got my NVR today, installed a HDD, and powered it up. IT starts on the bootup screen (says NVR), but will not take me through the initial setup process, then the monitor shows nothing like it has been disconnected and it starts to beep 4 times. It beeps 4 times about every 20 seconds or so...

    Hooking up a transformer

    30VA is correct. Standard cat5 is 24 gauge. "Doorbell" wire bought at Lowes or home depot is generally 20 or 18 gauge. Just wondering since CAT 5 is so readily available. I have some spare 12Gauge romex laying around but know this is overkill.

    I am using a transformer from 120V to 60VA 30a. The load side I would assume is considered class 2. Would I be able to run CAT5 cable on the load side? I am running it in the walls from the Plenum where the transformer will be installed.

    Remote programming charge

    I set up all the equipment ran wires, did everything. What takes me the longest is programming. This is nowhere near programming a HArmony. Ive done those as well.

    Remote programming charge

    I know this is off topic from the usual IPCAM talk (Id just like to mention that this is the best site for security cam info), but I know there are a lot of low voltage installers scrolling these forums, not just camera guys. Ok, so I've spent the last couple days programming some Procontrol.r...

    well she bought it and I will be installing against my wishes. I do have to agree that for the price though...$699 minus $132 coupon on Amazon. $567 total for 8 camera POE system with NVR. She is aware of the light/night situation. Thank you for all the info. I have learned a lot.

    IP Camera System

    Maybe I am looking in the wrong place. I only see one 2MP camera in the ipcamtalk website and it is a turret for $135. I then looked on Amazon and all Dahua 2MP cameras are from 150-2000. So I am replacing an old Swann HD-SDI system. I will run POE and want a 8 camera system with a DVR/NVR.
