On mine I found sometimes if the IVS trip lines are too short, they wouldn't trip.

Yep, same here. Normally run a separate IR because of moths and spiders.

Question about newer Dahua cameras...seem they are placing the IR light behind the same glass as the lens on some cameras. One I recently bought had a washed out image with the IR on. Has anybody noticed this?

I'm okay. Been dealing with an errant step son. Most recently working on the differential of my truck. The cameras on the trench are working well. The cheap plastic mail boxes I used are protecting them. One camera trained on our remote mail box actually caught a pair of thieves that stole...

No, for me at 63 yrs changing the power supply fan was enough. The case fan just makes a blowing air sound, not like the siren noise of the power supply fan.

Yes..the outside wall w holes that the fan blows thru.

Bought the Noctura fan and installed. Upside down but I don't think it matters. It's so quiet I had to see if it was spinning. Had to cut more of the cable off (2 ") and not use the universal connector. I couldn't get all the wire length stuffed in.

Try cutting the mesh off with small metal wire cutters and bending back the tips around the edge.

On my Dahua 5216-16P-4k2 I used small metal snips to cut out the metal mesh over the power supply fan in the back, without removing the cover or anything else. It took the siren noise away..now just loud air flow. Don't have cats or kids in the house

Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4ks2 Checked mine out why the fan was getting loud..Sheesh.

Yeah, went to look at video and it wouldn't play. I thought MP4 was the right format, and I had posted an MP4 directly to IPCAMTALK before. Thought it worked.

What happened to mine is that it was very sensitive with great sound, but after 6 hours it started humming and had a slight crackling. the replacement worked fine. I'm using a variable power adapter rated max 2.5 Amps.

On the screen does the camera show anything like "account locked"? Any message for the one not working? Do you have the 150 camera port forwarded in your router with 37777?

If it works don't bother it. In SC. My eyeball cams have a spider problem. I regularly use a nylon broom and gently brush near the front of the cams (about every 2 nights). Also spray poison around but that doesn't help much long term. The lumps on the strands set my trip wires off, otherwise...

How to turn a 1/2 job into 1 1/2 hours. Finally installed on the driveway the B5442-Z4 camera I had been using to take comet videos. Mounting went quickly, connected cable, clicked like it normally does, wouldn't work. The connector was a little hard to click, maybe the waterproofing creme...

Silly question from me. How many channels is the NVR? Not adding 19 to a 16 channel NVR?

Mine started with just a few cameras..

Your camera has an IR light built in like most cameras. The only thing is it attracts moths and spiders. If you're using simple IVS trip wires they set the alarm off. Rather new at this myself but usually the IR lights need separate power lines with little 1-2 amp adapters. Look at the Wiki...

And another suggestion if you just want to stay wireless. Amazon.com: Tupavco TP512 Yagi Wi-Fi Antenna 2.4GHz 15DBI H: 30° V: 25° Outdoor Directional Wireless N-Female: Computers & Accessories

I looked up the technical specs..b/g/n only at 2.4 ghz Depending on how far away you have the camera, you might need a signal booster. Watch when it drops out..rain, fog etc?. Or if it is constant enough, unplug other devices that might be competing with the wireless signal. How are you...

I would go the route that would allow adding more cameras. You always want more later. If the cameras are outside you really might want to consider separate IR lights. I'm having to clear spider webs and jiggling spiders about once every 2 nights. Dang things are so close it makes it appear as...

1. Yes - the only issue is that I have to choose each manually. If I'm at home, I have to pick the NVR internal with the 192.168.1.108 address with live view and get it to work if I have been previously using the other away from home (And vice versa). It won't switch automatically. Try...

See if this helps. It's for android GDmss setup. I had to have 2 different setups on phone. One for at home and one for away from home. The Network examples are the only ones I have enabled on my NVR5216-16P-4ks2. Seems to be mac address for my NVR..I'm looking. ..

Yeah, just need to order another $12 vinyl mailbox and waterproof junction box.

Set up the post for the camera to keep an eye on the far gate camera. 8ft 6X6 ground contact post 3ft deep.

I got it to working. Went under the doublewide and installed 2 Cat6 cables, one for the NVR, one for the EPOE switch. Hooked them up to my normal router. Had to change IP address of 2 cameras to from 10.1.1.xx to 192.168.1.150 and 151. Then added them manually to NVR remote list. Works now.

It is the PFL2106-4ET-96 Dahua brand. I might have it hooked up wrong. Got a 5216-16P-4ks2 Dahua NVR. The switch is connected to one of the NVR's POE ethernet ports, not the internet port. It might be that the port only allows one camera. If I change cameras with only 1 connected, that camera...

I have a post where I am using an 4 port EPOE switch for 750 ft distant camera. Works fine. I am having a problem with putting a 2nd camera on the switch. Have had it before and all I did was pull the power plug to the switch and restart it, and the 2nd cam came up. Back then it worked. The...

Even though it was 3 weeks over time I chatted with Amazon and they are sending a replacement. I thought I would need to send the old one in but never got an RMA email, the mic just popped up on Amazon as a $0.00 order for a new mic. You can't beat that kind of service. Probably value of a...
