mgb 0 Posted March 9, 2013 I was talking to a potential customer the other day. At his house he has one icrealtime camera and wants to add another. He uses icrss for viewing. I'm having a hard time finding who sells icrealtime cameras. The sites I do find that have them look kinda shifty. According to icrealtime, only their cameras are compatible with the icrss. Some say they are rebranded Chinese cameras like Dahua but I'm not really sure about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mgb 0 Posted March 9, 2013 I'm just not sure if they will be compatible with ICRSS. I know the popular opinion here is that icrealtime is just rebranded Dahua and that ICRSS is just PSS but has anyone here actually proved that and used it this way? I know this is a simple little add on but I don't want to get parts that won't work with what the customer already has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PSS is free along with all remote software just load it and log onto your IC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgb 0 Posted March 9, 2013 I understand that pss is free but currently the customer is using Icrss and he doesn't want to change that. Does anyone know if the Dahua camera will work in ICRSS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mgb 0 Posted March 9, 2013 Tech support at icrealtime says no but I'm not sure how reliable that answer really is. Their product definitely looks to be rebranded Dahua stuff but I know rebranded stuff can still have some differences such as software comparability. They are definitely more than just a distributor of Dahua. Icrss does look like pss to a point but has some differences. It's also not free like pss, it costs $30 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vector18 1 Posted March 9, 2013 I used to work for a company that installed ICrealtime and for my own jobs I use Dahua equipment. I have noticed that some of the ICrealtime dvrs do not work in IDMSS and visa verca with the ICrealtime app and dahua dvrs. And I have noticed the same for the ICRSS and PSS, some dvrs connect, some do not. I do believe ICrealtime does something to their firmware to sort of make it their own. But, side by side, they look like the same exact equipment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
