    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    I was testing one and the signal to BI was virtually instantaneous from what I could see, I did not do any definitive testing of the actual delay, but I am sure it was not longer than about 1 second!

    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    It does not do any recording, it is nothing more than an input module that can trigger BI to record or alert etc. The first one has the ability to take inputs and do outputs from BI, the second one only does input, the inputs are isolated so that there is no direct signal into the computer!

    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    They also make other isolated inputs, this one does not have the relay outputs, just inputs SeaDAC Lite - USB to 4 Isolated Inputs There is a reference to using these with BI, search the help file for "Sealevel"

    Alert on simple contact closure. Any suggestions?

    This device will probably do what you want, there may also be other ways to do this! SeaDAC Lite - USB to 4 Isolated Inputs; 4 Form C Relays It's a bit pricey but would solve you problem with no extra work!

    Hourly gaps in recording

    Is it possible that something is overloading the network or the Promax VM at that time and preventing the signal from the camera from reaching the BI server, not sure if this type of thing would trigger a log event or not!

    How to move Blue Iris to a new PC?

    That's an old version from sometime in 2020, you can look here, but I think that these are just updates, and not full version installs Blue Iris Updates Alternatively you could upgrade to a new version for the cost of a support contract! What was the date that your support expired in your BI...

    Very slow DB regenerate

    Just a suggestion, you might want to consider getting a UPS so that power outages don't crash the BI server! As for your drives overallocated, some screen captures of the setting for you storage drives might help to see if there is something that can be suggested!

    If you still want access to them you can shut down the BI service and rename the files, then do a DB rebuild, there are a number of free utilities that will do the file rename for you!

    Advice on running 2 Blue Iris servers

    If the systems are totally independent it makes no difference AMD vs Intel, even if they save to a common NAS storage as long as they have seperate folders on the NAS system no difference, just don't have them save to a common folder on the NAS, that would be asking for trouble!

    Request: Your experience with Win 10 vs. 11 & different versions.

    As far a BI is concerned I don't see any difference between Win 10 and Win 11, I always run the Pro version of Win 11, but that has nothing to do with how BI works on it, If you want detailed differences between Win 10 Pro vs. Win 11 Pro, or Win 11 23H2 vs 24H2, etc. then I would suggest that...

    Non-Human CP-Ai Alerts Going Through To Pushover

    Not all cameras listed under Alerts

    I am a bit confused, is the issue that you think that there should be a folder showing up under alerts for each camera? I have eight cameras on one system and 18 cameras on another system and none of them show up with seperate folders under alerts, and they are all recording alerts properly. I...

    Not all cameras listed under Alerts

    So I can see that CAM8 is recording to the "New" folder and will not have it's own folder in the alerts drop down box, I am sure that if you check the Reolink camera it might be set to use the 'Reolink" folder!

    Not all cameras listed under Alerts

    With that little bit of information it is difficult to even guess the possible causes, for starters what version of BI are you using, are you using the CPAI addon? The screen capture that you have included would not show each camera with a folder unless you have each camera recording to...
