I doubt they are supplying power to each camera But I have seen it Poe switches not being able to work well as they nor.ally use them for phones etc

I say bandwidth problem if all cameras doing it from time to time Is there a homehub involved anywhere lol?

More or less yes , and obviously cameras need to be on same subnet This kind of stuff dual nic NVR work best

Axis camera or any camera dropping off could be many reasons Like IP conflict Needs firmware update

Some nvrs have built in IP server , so will allocate IP for you Some.equipment is all manually assigned Dual port nvrs are good , but some more complicated than others DNS is an issue lol Subnets need to be common between NVR and cameras in most cases I think

You could install an internal bell sepratley as thatsore import than the external one in my opinion Then if the panel has a set output you could use it to trigger some kind of timer relay set to like 2secs to trigger a buzzer , relay would trigger only for short burst , then using a Hi lo sounder with correct relay config to trigger sound when unset Or some blag like that But by the time you work this out you could have swapped the panel for £70quid

In user manual it talks about sms phone book I assume you have access via manager menu? Have a look Look at SMS commands

Stick to what you have , everything else will probably be more expensive if aiming for quality If you want cheap and cheerful you can try any Onvif camera generally

Probably no one here has done this setup hence no detail I know one engineer but they have rigs setup in there office and always in touch with tech , seemed to k ow how to programme what they want I assume you can get the info

Depends which hik cameras you?

You have answer above, swb gave it to you Now all you need to do is hire someone with latest software and knows what there doing to programme it for you Last thing you want is to mash up the alerts and no signal goes through in an emergency Advance would also help you if your legit

What's your budget per camera and what is existing model you installed? Some Onvif cameras can work with hik

I didn't think the enforcer had an inbuilt voice dialler ? You sure there isn't Bother unit next to it to do the dialling? When it calls you what does it say?

Old panel now , if not much to protect at home, leave it as is or get new one installed

They are good to I have an old Ricoh copier keep it going with eBay parts (used £250 had it 8years) Kyocera multifunction (from new £300 3yeara old) And a hp laserjet (used, £50 I think it's old lol ) All printers get used plenty various uses No point buying cheap printers with expensive cartridges or cheap printers which are throw away and parts.priced more than a new printer itself

I think it's your fault

Hp 2055dn is quite good aswell or anything of that type

Oki are very good But like alarms many of you buy cheap printers and buy twice lol

Check license requirements first or dog will do

It's basically junk

The winner then

Cos he is here, why flaff around if you have restrictions

So as above unlikely in this case

Alarm isn't a must for guns I thought?

I was taking the Mick man , he's here because it will cost money for an installer to come
