IR inside at doors (looking in), WDR looking at the main entrance/s door, indoor color domes throughout the rest, varifocal color on cash registers. I've since switched to KT&C 700TVL except the eyeball IR domes which are generic.

The GE DVMRE used an RTOS called Nucleus, not linux (came from the Kalatel take over). And for several years it ruled the CCTV industry as there was nothing else out there worth talking about.

I don't sell cameras period (clients buy everything direct), but I have used many.

same size as an ipad, and when we had 7" netbooks people complained they were too small so they made them bigger .. yet now a calculator type limited OS on a 2" screen is .. okay?

I can view 64 cameras on my Acer One Netbook Or better yet 121 cameras on my desktop computer http://www.bahamassecurity.com/articles/dahua-pss-multiviews.asp

Why you gotta dis us southerners like that

I got people asking me how to right click on a mouse, and you want them to use a PC to view and playback their cameras?? LOL. Tell you what, when the cost of a compact stand alone NVR with a TV output comes down in price then perhaps I may discuss this.

my bad, didnt see where he cut all the leads and they come with an OSD cable also. thought he was just talking about cutting the power plug off which is normal.

what PTZ toggle? What wire did you cut??? You said you cut the power wire? That camera is not a PTZ? Post a photo of the wire you cut and what colors come off it. Going by the PDF its just one cable coming from the camera and splits off to video and power. Normally there will be something right before the split where the manufacturer joins the wires, you will need to cut that and the clear sealer open so you can see what wires join to what. If there is not with some cameras you will need to take the camera OUT of the housing to see where the wires join. Sometimes the IR will be powered with a separate wire that joins to the final power wires. Ive gutted alot of these type of cameras and they can vary these days.

Because thats the way you are supposed to do it. Use plugs and they can come loose, so join the wires properly. Rory hope that is a joke ??? buy a camera with OSD fly lead. chop it off and throw over your shoulder WHY He was talking about cutting the power plug off, right??

Thats a crappy supplier then. I cut them all the time and have sent back many cameras and warranty was never an issue. The power plugs on the end of bullet and dome cameras are just to help DIYs, they are not PART of the camera. In fact in most cases you can take their camera cable off completely and put on one from another camera. The cables cost a few cents its nothing to loose a warranty over.

Because thats the way you are supposed to do it. Use plugs and they can come loose, so join the wires properly.

Must have to drill a big hole in that cement to get it through.

Joseph I suggest using Google Translate, it does alot better than your current one.

these are like $60 in the US 700TVL Indoor Dome 3.6mm, True Manufacturer. I have about 20 on order, will know soon enough how they are, but the price is good either way. http://www.ktnc.co.kr/english/viewtopic.php?t=944

Thats the average DEALER price for that type of camera, Weatherproof 5-50mm True Day Night Infrared Bullet Camera. Installers normally sell them for alot more. But you need to ask yourself if you even need a 5-50mm lens, cause thats what you would be paying for.

Really? Id love to see that, 720p IP camera with 200' Infrared and 5-50mm lens, for $360 LOL.

i had avtech before this dahua, its night and day.

4.04 15/01/11 is for MAC OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.3 4.04 15/08/11 is for Mac 10.7, Lion. Try Mac PSS 4.03 instead.

No the firmware update doesnt wipe the accounts. Least none of the ones I have done over the past year.

Ofcourse that means you have to buy it, and wait for it to come, then hope it fixes the problem. Quick simple solution is to at least test with separate power supplies first, should have some lying around or can get them cheap at any local store.

Im not in the UK so cant help with that sorry. Available products will be different over there.

the balun is for video, though some also come with a power connector.
