    all about SD59230U-HNI

    Well either. Someone is covering the camera. The camera is stuck in day mode and the lack of ambient light is making the camera think it's covered when it's just not seeing anything due to lack of light. You say it happens at 3am. Is the camera rebooting itself at that time and maybe that...

    all about SD59230U-HNI

    I believe video tamper alarm means that the camera believes the feed has been obstructed. For example if someone wanted to rip off your camera or the place it was watching they could approach from a location out of the field of view and put a bowl over the dome blocking the view of the camera...

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    If it's any of any help to anyone here, I went over to the dahua site and downloaded what appeared to be the latest software from them for my unbranded SD59225U-HNI camera. I used to have an older version. I don't remember what version though, it was from March-June time frame of this year. My...

    Possible to delay snapshot?

    Thank you!. I'll look into that, maybe I can write up a piece of code that can delete all but the 2nd or 3rd snapshot and send that over once an alert is triggered!

    Possible to delay snapshot?

    Maybe this illustration might paint a better picture. I have a battery operated transmitter that tells the camera to "look at me" when the mailbox is opened. I recorded a clip and posted the associated snapshot. I have a 5 second lead time on the recording, when the post lady pulls up the...

    PoE "oooppppssss"

    You might want to give the camera a good disassembly if you have the patience and time. Anytime I find myself with a dead piece of electronics I always take it apart and start sniffing around, (literally sniffing) and hunt down scents of burnt popcorn. I know it's not a proper way to diagnose...

    PoE "oooppppssss"

    Try running power from a direct source without using the poe function. If you get it to boot reset the camera and try again with a poe plug. The Poe injector should have been smart enough to not supply power until it verified the cable. When you initially plug in a poe cable it checks for...

    What does the green box do?

    I believe the green box is a visual representation that the camera is "taking interest" in the object (it's moving in frame and the camera is making internal calculations on the object to see if it meets the "criteria(s)" that you defined for triggering.

    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    You can skip loading linux and get the windows version of CURL. It would save you a few hundred megabytes of system space.

    Map ptz to bat file. Use curl to make get request. Or look into autoit and use _iecreate and sleep commands to send both commands. You can compile as exe when you are satisfied with results.

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    Maybe you can get away with just a high end camera to monitor the critical areas and a cheaper 360 fisheye camera right next to it to monitor the immediate area near the camera and provide you with security for those moments where someone might try to be in the blind spot of the better camera or...

    Acti-Pelco

    Is there any way to use the Acti-Control port to send custom commands like we can on HTTP? The reason I ask is because many higher end camers use Pelco-D as a standard.I would love to be able to control the set points in my camera or bring up it's onscreen menu to control masking and privacy...
