    Empire Andy/Daua PTZ425DB-AT reset button location??

    Thanks that seemed to work. That is the good news. The bad news is that I can ping the camera and get the following:. I get a reply periodically and then get general failure. I think the problem may be with the poe connector on the camera. It was my bad since it was not waterproofed as well as...

    Empire Andy/Daua PTZ425DB-AT reset button location??

    I bought one as a spare and then one as a primary camera. Of course the primary seemed to have changed it's IP address so I am trying to do a reset but can't find the reset button? Any help appreciated. The dahua/empire cameras work but it's always painful to change the IP address when they...

    Big feral cat or mountain lion

    Thanks all. I also think it is just a feral cat after reviewing several times but it made me think twice. We have a lot of visiting cats but this one was much much larger and the hind section was very muscular. Moutain lions are supposed to be extinct in PA although we ( and several...

    Big feral cat or mountain lion

    We caught this on the Dahua. This is the only site I know that has expertise in identifying objects. I didnt have the PTZ auto tracking enabled. Sure looks larger than any feral cat that I have seen.

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    Since I lost the lottery, I purchased a SD4A425DB-HNY from Andy's Amazon store. I haven't mounted it yet but so far it looks good. I do have a question. The PTZ works fine on the camera interface but doesnt seem to work on UI3 or on the blue iris interface? I did enable the interface in...

    Is $75-$100 per hour FAIR for Camera/Alarm Subcontract Installation rates

    It is hard to find installers. I have 7 POE cams already "installed" temporarily However waterproofing and mounting are not my skillsets. ( Although after reading Tony R's fantastic article, I feel better!) I have 3 PTZ and 4 non-PTZ. I got 2 estimates. Both were $3000 for the cams with...

    Vivint installed security camera

    We switched from Vivint to suretyhome.com. Easy to convert their Vivint systems which are rebranded anyway. The only good thing I can say is that Vivint did replace defects at no charge. Saved a bundle by switching. Never used their cameras. If I have any problems I usually contact my...
