Thanks. Great to know.

I have put up many PTZs, I just have not had them as low as 12 to 13 feet before. I was just curious how this would be. Thanks for those videos. They help a lot.

Thanks. You always come through for me. The distance he will be looking is at most 100' at the height we are looking from. We were thinking of mounting on the flat top of the pole if possible. If we did that, it would raise the height a couple of feet maybe. Any idea what type of a mount...

My friend wants 3 more PTZ cameras (the new PTZ5A4K-25X) for various places. Where he wants them is going to be tough but can be done. How high is too high, and how low is too low? Do you think 12' high is too low? The other question is about the proper mount for one of the PTZ cams and where...

I have not worked with that mount before. So, I could use smaller straps? That is for sure something that will work? I'll know more when I get the mount, but I was trying to get everything in line so when it got here I was ready to go.

I saw that earlier. I just wasn't sure. So, I would have to use a 3" pole? My goodness. That is going to be BIG.

Has anyone used the Dahua PFA150 pole mount? What size pole does it fit? What is the smallest size, and what is the largest size? Thanks.

I'm not looking to break the bank. I don't do this as a career but as a hobby and I'm learning something new every day. I have about 3/4 mile of cat5e and cat6 in my house for my whole house audio, networking, and cameras. I also work at my friend's house doing his networking, out at his shop...

Well, I ended up using intrusion. I have never used more than one rule in each before. Can I use multiple rules to hit certain areas for each camera?

I can't do hardly any zigs and zags, at least in the direction I want to go. It is a larger area with several things that need special attention. Should I do several different tripwires or intrusions if I can't hit the areas I want the way I want?

I'm trying to use tripwire with the new GUI in the PTZ5A4K-25X. It won't let me go in any direction I want. If I zigzag, it lets me do that a couple of times, and then I have to go in the direction it wants me to go before I can start a new direction. Do I need to do something special? All the...

I figured it out.

I get my alerts in BI. It shows in the column on the left of BI. But when I go to my folder in BI, the alert folder, there are no alerts anymore. There has not been a new alert in the folder for over 5 days. What did I do to screw it up?

I found my problem. It was the Microsoft Defender Firewall. It was blocking access to it. I turned off the Defender Firewall and it now works. Bad idea? Well, I turned it back on allowed an app through the firewall. I then added BI to the private network. It now works.

I helped a friend set up his Blue Iris and cameras and got them all working well. He is not techie enough to use a VPN or anything like that and just wants to use the WAN route for remote access to his cameras. I had Ui3 set up on my PC at my home and it was working well. Then he decided on a...

Yep. 2 of them had motion detection enabled for some reason.

I may have to put CodeProject back on. I am getting a lot of false alerts that I have never gotten before. Little bugs, my flickering lanterns, a flash of light. Unless there is something I can do at the camera GUI I don't know.

Now, with the vehicles, will the camera IVS find any vehicle without CodeProject? Combine, Pickups, Tractors etc?

So, I'll be fine without CodeProject? I have no problem with that. You are the master so I will listen to your advice. I will just stop CodeProject or should I just delete it. I also found out what I was doing wrong for not getting alerts. I hadn't clicked on Smart Plan and highlighted it. My...

So, I can keep Code Project going? And it will work properly with the cameras.

So, you're saying you don't use Code Project AI? Maybe that is what is causing my issue now with no alerts.

I have a bunch of several year old cameras though too. Not the new gui or the S3. I seem to be having an issue with those working properly and sending notifications or even getting alerts. I'll have to mess around some and figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Also, by going to the alert tab, and checking the minimum time since actions to a higher number, will that make the alerts happen less often? I'm trying to get the alerts to happen with less frequency.

Yes, I did that. I'm now talking about in the camera itself. Don't I have to just go into IVS, setup the tripwire the way I want it, and then hit apply?

Was there something special I had to do in the camera GUI other than set up an IVS to tripwire or to intrusion??

Well, we'll see what happens with alerts now. It is going to be quiet tonight, but we'll see tomorrow what happens. Thanks.

There is a box under Motion Sensor that says ONVIF/Camera events. I need to check that too? Okay.

Okay, I must have done something wrong. I used tripwire in the cameras in the IVS. I went into BI and turned off motion sensor. Now, nothing is alerting. I went into video and checked the box Get ONVIF trigger events. Should I not have turned off motion sensor?

Maybe I found it. Is it the M6 screwdriver?

Okay, so pretty much what I'm doing. One more question for the master, off-topic. You know the hex nut on the mount for the S3, what type of head and size of screwdriver does that take? PFB203.
