    Dahua doorbell lineup

    Hi! I replaced my fence and I would like to get IP doorbell installed to pick up the calls/ open the gate on my phone. There will be another (better) camera looking in that direction so the video quality is not top priority. I have Ethernet wires installed and I want to go with Dahua. Any...

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    @Wildcat_1 firmware is the latest one from July, manual focus has already been set but the value changed anyway. I used FF so I reapplied the setting with IE and it was fine during this night. It lose just a bit of focus but the camera drifted a bit due to loose zip tie. It's temporary test...

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    @samplenhold for me the correct value of focus is 1500 and it also went for something around 1640, I will check actual value next time. I've just did a test and camera can more or less properly refocus with just the sign in view. That means that the value was not even a result of sudden refocus...

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    This time camera switched the profiles correctly and remembered the settings but unfortunately some time before midnight it decided to change the focus setting even though it was set to manual in both profiles. Last good picture: I will try to reapply the settings via IE but something is...

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    I've used Fire Fox, tried to do reboot after the firmware update and this time the settings stayed. I don't have a way now to run sunrise/sunset utility but the camera is looking at the back of the cars + the other lane is going down and to the right so not that much light goes in to the...

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    I've upgraded the firmware, added bitrate and changed the day shutter speed to 0-1 range. I will let it record for a day and gather some pictures. I've noticed that I have it on H.265 so that's why there are lower values of bitrate. Any differences in used encode mode for LPR?

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    Firmware version is: 2.800.15OG006.0.R, Build Date: 2020-11-19, quite old but it says that it's the newest one. I've changed the focus to manual now, although it was some settings problem, after I manually changed the shutter speed from 1/25 back to 1/2000 it was fine. I use 25 FPS because...

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E lost settings?

    Hi! I've placed IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E from @EMPIRETECANDY for some test with LPR. Capture distance is around 30m so it's not zoomed in all the way in. I've set up day and night profiles and used built in day/night switch: Night pictures are fine but I think those could be even better: Day...

    New cameras to add with IPC-HDW2231R-ZS?

    Hi! I've got a bit overwhelmed with amount of Dahua models so I thought that I will ask before purchase. I have few of IPC-HDW2231R-ZS cameras, I like the picture quality and I am looking for something with similar performance/ price range to add to my system. I was thinking about its newer...

    NVR5232-4KS2 stuttering

    @catcamstar @EMPIRETECANDY I forgot I did not update cameras in this location... NVR detected cameras on port 80 instead of 8899 and I just added them. Seems good so far.

    NVR5232-4KS2 stuttering

    @catcamstar - are your cams connected to POE ports on the NVR or remain on their existing POE switch port cameras connected to two unmanaged switches (+ 12V power) connected to router, NVR connected to router and TV - how are your ips configured (eg cams/nvr)? Static IPs for cameras and NVR -...

    NVR5232-4KS2 stuttering

    Hi! I bought NVR5232-4KS2 from @EMPIRETECANDY and replaced my generic Chinese NVR that worked with 8 generic (outdated) 1.3 Mpx cameras. It detected all cameras and added them without problem (onvif). Problem is that live preview stops, once a minute or two, for about 5-10s. When I change main...

    IPC-HFW5231E-Z12E and 90 km/h. is it possible?

    Horizontal angle would be around 12 degrees, distance 30m and for the second one 19 degrees 32 meters. First one would be from the back of a car, second from the front. In Poland, back license plate must have lights, will this help or make it more difficult to read them?

    IPC-HFW5231E-Z12E and 90 km/h. is it possible?

    I am thinking about getting LPR system after I had to tell police officers that there is no way they will read license plates from my cameras. Is it even possible to catch license plates at speed of 90-100 km/h with IPC-HFW5231E-Z12E? The speed limit is 50-60 km/h but it's Poland...

    What should I change it for?

    Hi! I have some old turret cameras 1/3" 1.3 MP 3,6mm/F 2.0 that I would like to upgrade. Snapshots attached. I was thinking about IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE with 3,6mm lenses but maybe I should go with something else? 2,3,4 shots are from house far from town so nights are pretty dark there I'd prefer...

    Exposure mode/ shutter speed

    Nope, I can even set it to 1/10000, there is just a little bit of focus change for a second ant that's it. After factory reset it looks like this but still no luck with exposure mode

    Exposure mode/ shutter speed

    Unfortunately still nothing, there is something going on during change ( a bit of focus change) but it's certainly not 1/4000 AE changes were preety good in terms of make plates readable but I need shutter for higher car speeds. Day Night

    Exposure mode/ shutter speed

    Hi, I have generic Chinese camera, 1080p PTZ 18x zoom. I wanted to set it as LPR camera but changing exposure mode does not change anything! I was able to turn down AE so that I can read LP quite OK (with tape over IR sensor to force IR mode) but I have no idea how to actually turn down...
