  1. Hik connect also does ddns, however personally i would just use dyndns pro for all it costs, just charge customers an annual fee for it but waive the fee if they take a maintenance package.
  2. You got several simple accurate answers, some explaining the reasoning behind the answers, to which you decided that wasn't a good enough answer, even though in the next post you gave examples confirming yourself there isn't a standard fixed rate that works in all situations. Your replys in this thread have the tone of having a bit of an attitude about you, although going by the unusual phrasing and grammar I'm starting to wonder if you struggle a bit with the english language and you don't really mean to come across twattish maybe it's just a language barrier?
  3. Are you hard of thinking or what? Most don't fit to a standard, every reply you have had states that. There isn't a standard. The only ones who have a one size fits all standard are the donkey have-a-go chancers that plague this industry who just leave the setting at whatever factory default is because they have no idea what the setting does.
  4. I know that, but he is saying that was the first actually answer on the thread, i was saying the correct answer came way sooner than that. The correct answer also came from many sources, but still we seem to be getting mixed gibberish.
  5. So you are confirming my actual point that hard figures don't apply if you are doing it properly, every situation should be assesed individually there is no one size fits all. That is the first actually answer which was post 2 in the thread.
  6. Typically I'd go around 6fps 1024k continuous record and 25fps 4096k on motion. when trying to view a bump in a car park or someone palming a note instead of putting it in the cash drawer the extra frames help. some just go to 12fps and 2048k, it really all depends. much of my stuff is 3,4 and 8 megapixel anyway and for some reason it's more scene dependant as you go up in resolution, put an estimate in and tweak until perfect.
  7. Have you ever tried sd cards as edge storage? the cards don't last. even the expensive mlc cards you are lucky to get a year out them
  8. What resolution? What encoding?
  9. If budget is lower but the customer still has a target for image retention duration, i would offer the option of switching on h264+ and dropping the bit rate, but the drop in image quality is noticable, i try to steer them to spending that bit extra on the additional storage and often succeed but some are already stretching their budget. Thats one consideration, another is available upload bandwidth if the customer want's to remote view the main stream.
  10. Its different for every camera, every scene, every budget.
  11. A piece of String can be any length you want.
  12. Wire the tamper as you would any other deol fully supervised loop. confirm with a meter you are seeing 2k2 closed 4k4 open at the panel as per the document tech support sent you?
  13. You are positioning yourself as a professional security company but you can't suss out an odyssey on a diy alarm on a paid job?
  14. Are you fitting cctv? Put a camera looking at the panel display if you want to see which detector activated without going to the panel, or fit some repeater displays around the house. other alternative is wire the fire panels printer output to the nvrs serial port and set a camera up as POS capture.
  15. All that aside if they aren't responing to your questions promptly or assisting you adequately in resolving your issue why are they still your alarm company? Nationals are no guarentee of quality or service, believe me when a national taken over the branch i worked at the effect was similar to the big C.
  16. Batmans twink boyfriend.
  17. 4 12" jbl subs connected in series.
  18. Probably **** cable or power. Try local power or. Remove camera and taking it to the dvr with a short patch cable.
  19. In that situation you override intelligent set by pressing yes B
  20. When you start an intelligent set it starts off as a part set so omits the landing and anything on an entry route bu still monitors for deviation on the zones included in B, then if you open a final exit door before the B exit timer elapses then it changes to an A full set.
  21. For simplicity of setting i like euro mini/46 programmed for intelligent set. Swip the tag and go to bed, system realises you haven't opened a final exit and automatically part sets. If you leave via a final exit system automatically full sets. Pensioners love it. shame they did away with that functionality on the app versions. Jim, if you are reading why did they take that feature out? Customers love it.
  22. I would fit a euro 46 app and a digi wifi or digi lan, or a premier elite and com wifi or com ip. programming on both of those is a bit involved however so i would get a pro in.
  23. Only tried the bt54, and a couple of wifi babycams. The bt54 has good image quality and no failures yest, however the web interface is crap and no way to initiate a tour from the nvr i can find, has to be via web interface and no timed or park action.
  24. Do you live somewhere extremely sunny though? That might sway things a bit. As far as a low power consumption cheap ip ptz goes a floureon bt54 is actually a nice wee unit but we are still talking 980 ma af night/ 280ma day spiking to 1420ma motor running at night before you countthe load from your wireless link you will need an expensive solar array and battery bank to achieve any sort of reliability and the cheapskate gentlemen are also the most whiny fussy customers in my experience, you would do well to either bodyswerve it or set expectations seriously low and emphasise the increased maintenance requirements to keep the panels clean and overspec in the first instance as the output degrades over time.
  25. Ask him if he wants the moon on a stick and a bag of walnut infused fairy droppings to go with that.
