    No able to move the camera. Moving the exhaust output will take some time, The IR lights really highlight what is almost non observable to the naked eye. Not sure what other camera settings I could try.

    I have this camera set up on my Hikvision NVR. I am un sure how to program in or set up the auto tracking on the NVR, According to SUNBA, it can be set up via a WEB interface or via the NVR but not both. I would prefer to use the NVR. Ne instructions for the NVR are very rudimentary. If...
