    No idea. Hopefully someone has been able to do this, perhaps using a different method.

    Storing snapshots on a local NAS using the new GUI struggles

    I need someone to explain how this works. I had IVS tripwires on my previous 5442 cameras that would store a snapshot when triggered to my local NAS. In the new GUI on my 54IRs, I can't get this to work. I must be missing something. What I've done so far. I walk through this area and the camera...

    Is there a trick to doing tripwire with the new GUI?

    Speaking of which, what's the most compatible browser on a Mac to use for the new GUI?

    Low voltage landscape lighting transformers front and back. From each transformer I buried the wiring to each location to power the IRs.

    I'm using this 10-watt Tendelux IR illuminators. I spray paint them to blend in with where they are mounted, usually tree trunks. I probably use a dozen of these on my property.

    Yes! Here's that view from the same location with the 54IR. I don't use the onboard IR for any of my new 54IRs, Tendelux illuminators instead.

    I bought 10 new 54IRs from Andy to replace my 5442s. I couldn't be happier! Take a look at two different locations showing the night picture quality using identical exposure settings below. Cam 1 5442 Cam 1 54IR Cam 2 5442 Cam 2 54IR

    Is it possible to FTP snapshots from IVS motion alerts? I can't seem to find that functionality in the new GUI. Thanks

    New GUI "Working Mode" explanation?

    @wittaj this work around worked for me. I didn’t realize I had to do it for both Day and Night profiles. Thanks!

    New GUI "Working Mode" explanation?

    Tried that and it didn't work. I set Customized Scene to 4 and Day/Night still shows 2.

    @wittaj In Day/night switch mode, I can't change the sensitivity. Is that right?

    I'm really impressed with the IPC-T54IR-ZE camera. It definitely seems to be an upgrade compared to my 5442s with night image quality. I'm still trying to dial in my exposure settings. How do these look for Day and Night? Thanks!

    New GUI "Working Mode" explanation?

    Thanks @wittaj. Sounds like Customized Scene if you use a Day and Night profile and have a way to automate the profile change. Day/Night switch if you just let the camera decide when to change based on lighting. About right?

    IPC-T5442T-ZE vs. IPC-T54IR-ZE

    @wittaj I read your review of this camera here. It sounded like night performance was better compared to the 5442. Is that right? Thanks! Also, is this the current firmware?

    Are there any PoE "powerable" warm white lights?

    Not really. If I end up using Color4K-Ts everywhere, I'll just have to use the onboard LEDs.

    Odd issue with UI3 and viewing alerts with a newly added camera

    I added a new camera today to BI and when I filter to show Person Alerts as shown below, this camera lists the alerts as shown, but when I click to view the person alert it plays the entire clip starting at 17:00 AND 17:03 which doesn't start where the person shows up in the clip. My other...

    Thanks @wittaj... I'm trying to get the hang of this compared to my 5442s. How about the audio settings, any setting changes from default there in your experience? Also, I turned the Sharpness to zero, it just looked more natural to me.

    Just received my two new lottery cameras today... thanks Andy! If the 4KT works for my needs, I'll be buying more! With the 4KT and the T54IR-ZE, do I just connect them to my network and use the config tool to initialize and set the admin login/password, or is there a different process now? Thanks!
