Ubiquiti Unify gear is what I chose. Besides the vlan capability (although some would argue that you should put the cameras on a physically separate net) you can also add wireless POE access points later. I have 10 cameras and 3 access points running off a 16 port unify switch. You can later...

One thing that I realised/regretted after upgrading from 7YO 2MP domes to 4k Bullets is that the bullets don't have Alarm or sound inputs/outputs. It might be because the specific model I chose (1831) or the price point. The old domes were top of the line back then and cost about 2.5 times as...

I experienced a similar issue with some 4K cameras: They would not detect movement even if other cameras that have some overlap in cover did detect movement. The lack of detection occurs even in the detection setup screen and changing the sensitivity does nothing. Every time the problem would...

Update: The issue persists . I updated the firmware to Apri'19 and I set the cameras to reboot everyday (separate tests) and it makes it a little better but the reboots are still random.

Update: I got in contact with the supplier who passed it onto Dahua. They asked a few questions but I haven't heard back from them in about two weeks.In the mean time I found the April'19 firmware (I had used the Jan 19 before) and installed it. It seems to have fixed the problem although the...

Sorry, I forgot that it is free unless you try to use a floorplan. I used a floorplan because the satellite pics didn't zoom enough on my site, the site has too many nooks and crannies and I also put some cameras inside which the satellite pics do nothing about. Re:Varifocal. OP indicated that...

When you try to upload a floorplan you are asked to pay for the subscription.

You need to measure the distance from the camera mounting place to where the boat is and then use one of the online calculators to work out what lens to get. The best tool I found is the calculator from IPVM. Not free but if you can spare the $100 for a 3 month subscription (minimum length)...

Hi, I am having an issue with a IPC-HFW2831T-ZS which has me stumped. The camera was purchased two weeks ago but only installed it today. I have two others of the same model that were bought at the same time but those do not present with the same problem. The problem is that the image degrades...

I have tried resetting the camera but that made no difference. I looked at the camera logs but could not find any entries showing a reboot because the logs were full of login/logoff entries from the Synology Nas. I enabled remote logging and was able to sift through thousands of entries and I...

Reviving an old thread. I am having the same issue (IPC-HFW1831 and DS3018xs, auto maintenance turned off on cameras, firewall turned off on NAS) with the difference that I did copy the config from another camera before experiencing the issue so now all my cameras experience the random...

Depends on your monitor size. I have a 55" 4K monitor and the control sizes are about the same as on other software. What size is your monitor?
