  2. With the Omnicast Config tool in Physical Mode (Not Logical) right click on the Archiver you want to add the Legend too. Select Add unit The ports need to match how you configured it in the Archiver. Also in the Legend make sure make sure Sym Secure Legacy is not checked. Screen shot is bad.
  3. I still haven't had any luck getting mine to come up in a browser and I haven't had time to call UTC.
  4. I will be on site tomorrow and the system is Omnicast with dozens of Legend IP domes with the only wires connected to them is a Cat 6 and power wire. I will get some screen shots for you.
  5. PS, I connected a Legand Dome to and Avigilon Encoder and used the 485 out of the encoder and configured the Dome on Pellco D 2600 (Position 9 on switch 1). PTZ navigates fine but video quality out of the Legand BNC is awful!
  6. Omnicast and GE Legand IP PTZ work fine together. I'm reaching out to one of my co workers and I'll get you some more info. Do you have the Legand on Firmware 7.7?
  7. I don't know how those rules work. I ordered it through my employer who is a Big Avigilon Partner. I pay cost + 0.00
  8. What a dork. Looks like I just saved myself 199.00
  9. I ordered the 2.0MP 3-9 IR version today and will be installed in a really dark area. I will post up samples when I get it.
  10. The Dome looks like a Geovision and the bullet is just flat out hideous looking.

    Avigilon vs Dahua

    I'm not aware of any 3000.00 cameras. I'm aware of some 8 and 10,000 dollar cameras and 10,000 dollar lenses but not in this conversation. You can use Axis or Acti but the Avigilon camera of equal specs are cheaper.

    Can Duhua do the following: Point of Sale? LPR? Alarm Points and rules? Say when an input triggers pull up camera X and set it to preset position X? Scheduled Backups? Setup users and groups?

    Avigilon vs Dahua

    1st post Is this for real? That's like comparing a Mercedes-Benz CL to a Kia Forte. Apples to Watermelons
  16. Ill just be honest with you. Pin only is a bad idea. You have no identify of who entered the code. They get passed around. Your better off passing out keys. Just you a basic HID 26bit card. You can even have blank cards at each location and when you have one issued just have that person stand at the reader and call you and you enroll him. 2 min process. If you wanted to bump it up you could enforce Card/Pin entrance to ensure the card doesn't get passed around.

    Desperate for help

    You can show everyone street price and then everyone already knows their discount level. Much simpler.
  18. Thats an interesting concept. I guess you could say Cloud Access Control. I will look at it harder when I get the chance. Wouldn't really work in our market target. We consider 500 readers and 18,000 card holders one of our medium systems.
  19. I looked at their website and just saw a bunch of fluff. No hardware. You could use Facility Commander housed at one location on a server, Use their Direct Door Boxes at each location. 525 keypads which do HID or Cassy Rusco Badges or enter by Pin. http://utcfssecurityproducts.com/ProductsAndServices/Pages/DirecDoor.aspx http://utcfssecurityproducts.com/ProductsAndServices/Site%20Assets/460618001_T-500-RDR.pdf
  20. What are you currently using? Never heard of Brivo. We use Lenel, GE Facility Commander, GE Picture Perfect, Sielox, and Honeywell.
  21. I would be more worried about insects getting in it.
  22. Interesting, I never knew that was there.
