Ok you talked me into it

turn it off for 3 minutes using the power switch on the back. Then turn back on and should be unlocked.

hardly

just tell them you showed the pictures to people that dont care about their policy " title="Applause" />

man they only have city councils in the UK

depends how big it is

build a big wall and install a moat.

hey, got your contact but the email address you sent keeps coming back as unknown user ...

Yeah they can be a pain to adjust, though some are easier than others. the nice thing is they are typically more weatherproof than the regular vandal dome, and no need to open it up to adjust the view. The downside is most only come with IR, or as mentioned cant always be adjusted as much. That looks like a big one, some come smaller.

throwing a brick at it would likely just scratch it not push it in, even a sledge hammer has a hard time pushing it in and then when it does it shatters but stays intact. Ive taken a sledge hammer to vandal domes before by the way. The lens probably just moved from the vibration BTW i use bullets and domes, and sure they could move my bullets but other cameras will catch them, plus the low cost and ease to replace the bullet, $40, as opposed to locating a new cover to replace the scratched or shattered dome cover and the labour involved .. priceless For clients though if its low like that its normally domes as they arent paying for the service to drive there and step up to it and turn it gently back into position with 2 fingers. Looks like he needs some "in wall" cameras though.

I have a couple of my own cameras with wires running loose, but I replace them every few weeks and they are my test locations so little point in making them pretty ... as for security wise, each one has another camera looking at it, and shorting it would only short the camera power supply and they are already recorded. Plus they still have to get through the alarm. For a client though .. no would never leave it like that. But as to the old man, he is an old aged pensioner and most of them cant afford to hire someone.

You mean the Turret domes? (AKA eyeball domes). Sure they are not as big, but they stand out more than the mini bullet, I have both here. Not saying I dont use them, I just like how much less conspicuous the mini bullet is.

So what if its not the same exact model???? that is not the specs sheet, it shows you how to use it. Would you rather they read how to use the LE-A??? Dont like it, simply dont read it. That is the manual Dahua have for their Hybrid DVR. Pulling legs? I have firmware for my DVRs you could only dream about thanks to Ivan.

I wouldnt use any of them. Custom build only

Update would depend on the exact model and number of channels. Also, if you can find out the exact Dahua model then you could try that. Base it on U size, Number of supported HDD, and FPS record. However if you dont use the firmware provided from the US reseller you could brick it and Dahua is not responsible, it would require sending back to your reseller to be flashed. This is the reason Dahua does not list firmware anymore. Before you do any of that, is there a particular reason for the update? Firmware updates normally fix minor bugs, but if your unit is not experiencing such bugs then it is best to leave it with what came on it.

disabled it a long time ago, plz use my site to contact me

Vandal domes make it look like a prison also. Get some mini bullet cameras instead.

according to some clowns, should be using all megapixel ip cams

never

Well depends, I heard they beat up and kill old men in the UK (aka the london riots)

Why they call them stickmans? They carry sticks to beat the perps with??

Saddest was when I went to look at the local college CCTV system Separate buildings with DVRs in each security booth One building had a DVR that was not working - it was simply not plugged in. The other building had a DVR that was not working, it was missing the generic power cord - when asked, security said it had been like that for a couple years. They never had me fix it so ...
