Just curious rough cost for ACC Server 6 enterprise - upgrade cost per license? Thanks.

Hey folks - I just installed one of the HK indoor "cube" cameras to watch some home remodeling work that needs to be completed... But looking for a cheap housing that will protect the housing from any dust (specifically refinishing the hardwood floors). The project is only 1 week - and the camera will be located in an upper corner of the living room. I was even thinking about placing a piece of plastic - maybe taping up plastic wrap around the cube but I thought that would result in crappy video. Or maybe a hard plastic cut down to size in front of the camera in the corner. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Now that the girlfriend won't let install anymore more security cameras (8 HK and 5 illuminators) - I am moving onto home security within our house. The house is prewired at the doors and the windows but the wires are unterminated down in the basement... I thought some folks on this forum might be able to point me in right direction for home security forums - some research, forums, discussions, etc. Here is what I am looking for: * Home Security Control Panel that has ethernet capability and ios / android apps * Wired solutions for windows and doors (not looking for any wifi capability) * A mid to higher end solution From some initial research looking at the Honeywell Vista line - but really trying to get more feedback, opinions, and some recommendations. Thanks!

Hi folks - can anyone recommended a 24V Power Distribution Unit? Here is the one I am currently using - but having some "quality" issues: 24V AC 200W CCTV PTC Fuse Distributed Power Distribution Unit Power Supply Box for Security Cameras: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NBDEN9M?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 Some high level requirements: Input: 120VAC, Output 24VAC 8+ channel output 8+ AMP capable UL certified would be nice. Thanks!

I know we can set-up external notifications (email) on the ACC Client - but I don't think there is a way to set-up external notifications on the ACC Server? My set-up is a central server, ACC5 Server and Gateway running, and a handful of separate clients connecting to the server. I am less concern if 1 client loses the connection to the server - but very concerned if the server shuts down, loses connection to a camera, etc. Is there a way to set-up external notifications on ACC5 Server? Thanks!

Thanks thewireguys! The Alarm pre / post recording is working great!

Question - will the pre and post recording via the Alarm event show up in the camera recording video timeline as well? Or will the pre / post Alarm event recording only show up in the Alarm "tab"?

I had the exact same issue earlier in the year and filed a bug with Hikvision. They had me go thru the typical fixes - re-install your graphics driver, re-install iVMS 4200, try a different monitor, etc - but nothing worked to fix it. They stated "they might fix this in a future release" - but I couldn't ever find a fix to the issue. That is when I switched to Avigilon...

Thank you for your help. I haven't play with the Alarm settings so that will be a fun project.

I be must slow today - here is camera -> camera set-up The closest I could find is Manual Record. This has a pre-trigger record time but max value for me is 10 secs. :/ I went thru all the other camera set-up options but couldn't find anything else.

Hmmm - I must have a different ACC version or looking in the wrong place.

Sorry I should have type the version number as well... ACC5 Enterprise 5.6.0.22

Why do u use ACC5 and IVMS 4500 at the same time ? Hi. For remote usage with the microphone and speaker capabilities with the HK cameras. I'm not sure if I can enable these via ACC Mobile. :/

I'm probably looking in the wrong place to enable these features. I am looking at ACC mobile and can't figure out how to turn on a microphone feature. I know this works since I can do this via HK iVMS 4500 and the camera webGIU. But can't find this in the ACC mobile app. I am running ACC5 Enterprise - but can't find a screen where to set / change the pre and most motion detection. But this is via ONVIF interface to the HK cameras. Thanks for your help!

Definitely can use HK iVMS 4500 without HK server. I have been doing that for several months now... My set-up: 8 HK cameras, ACC5 Server, and HK iVMS 4500.
