  1. If your customer needs 16 1080P cameras, I hope your charging a ton of money for it. And keep in mind, even if he/she shops around, any other

    companies price will be high as well so do not worry about letting them know that each NVR will be big money. I would say 3k for a 16 channel

    108p at 25fps is very reasonable. But who knows, someone here might know of one for far less?


  2. If you want to find out no-ip's server IP, you can go into command menu and ping no-ip.com. You can also update the IP yourself by deleting the domain

    name and than recreating it when your on the same network as the DVR. The new domain will pick up the new IP. Sometimes when you enter it in the

    DVR, it doesn't not update right away. You also need to make sure you checked enable in the ddns menu in the dvr as well. Personally, I use nvrdns.com

    or nvrdydns.com. They are free and easy to setup.

  3. It doesn't look like much, but try moving the camera off of the house. I doubt it, but you never know. It looks like a decent camera with it's specs, and certainly not cheap for an analog, but it does not look like a ton of IR's on it. I can't see how they claim 98ft, even though they actually claim (up to) 98ft.


  4. It is possible that the camera is not compatible with the DVR. You need to know what model DVR you have and research that. Not all

    IP cameras are compatible with all Hybrid DVR's. Also, that is an IP camera but it is not a megapixel or HD camera. It only has 520 tvl's.

    For some reason that camera is expensive, I don't know why though? You might be better off finding out which IP megapixel camera is

    compatible with your dvr and purchase one if your looking for a great quality picture.


  5. I do not see a coax plugged into that camera in your photo album. Did you unplug it? As the others have said, invest in a multimeter

    and make sure your camera is getting power. I appreciate DIY'rs, but if you have wires all over your house and your unable to figure

    out what is what, it might be a good investment to have a all around low voltage guy come in as a free estimate and give you

    an estimate to get things up and running, but while he gives you the estimate, have him tell you what is what in your new home?


  6. Depends on the model you purchase. I recently purchased a 960H hybrid NVR/DVR. The specs say it can record 4 1080 camera, 8 720 camera, 16 D1 IP cameras. That does not mean you can view 6 1080 camera and record only 4. That mean you can only install 4 1080

    camera whether your viewing them, recording them, streaming them, or anything you want to call it. So, like I said, look at the specs

    on the model your looking for. Some 16 channel nvrs can actually view/record 16 1080 cameras, but you pay extra for it and you should

    install a few hard drives for alot of storage if you going to actually record 16 1080 cameras even in motion detect.


  7. When you read that they have BNC output, they mean they ''also'' have BNC output. If they are IP, they MUST have ethernet

    connection. Some IP cameras do not have bnc output as well so again, if you read bnc output, they mean ethernet AND BNC.

    Now, if you connect the BNC output to a monitor, you will not be getting the full resolution of the camera. You will only get

    the highest analog resolution.
