  1. rayt, just make sure they work with your NVR and will work with motion set up if thats how you record. They do look pretty good and for a good price for a 3mp ptz with 18x optical. The only thing is it looks different in two different pictures of it?


  2. I recently had a similar situation. A commercial building has a huge parking lot and the call box for the gate is approximately 750ft away from the building. They wanted a board camera inside the call box so they can see who they are letting in the gate. I decided that since the camera is so small and so close to the car, an analog board camera would do just as good as an IP camera. So, I had the gate company run me a cat5 when they ran their communication cables under ground. I installed the board camera with a pinhole lens in the mount already set up in the call box, used 1000ft video baluns, powered the camera inside the call box, and connected the cat5 inside the building to an analog DVR. I than put the DVR on their network, gave the DVR a static IP and

    than in the NVR I went into remote device, entered the IP of the DVR and channel one which is the gate camera. I didn't even

    tell the customer it's an analog camera and when we drove a car up to the call box, the persons face was crystal clear and they

    loved it.


  3. I'm sort of in the same position. I park two of my vehicles in a garage, but my 3rd vehicle gets parked on a public street. Different times/days I find different parking spots, so a fixed camera is useless. So, what I did was installed a 2mp PTZ and every time a park in a different spot, I turn the camera remotely directly onto my vehicle. Having the camera will not stop anyone from

    breaking into it, chances are they won't even know there is a camera watching it because it's so far away. But, at least

    I will have a clue who broke into it, submit the video to the police, and for my sake, see who did it and keep an eye out for

    that person and destroy him/her if I ever see them. So, my suggestion is get a PTZ and zoom in closely for better detail directly onto your truck, AND put some fixed cameras recording the surrounding area so you can get an idea where they came from

    or if they drove off in a car.


  4. If you posted something that prompted a valid response, than that is what you would have been given. But asking the

    forum for software that will control a ptz that even the manufacturer can't come up with and your are selling it AND

    this is your first time posting here, than, it looks like you deserve nothing but busting your chops response.
