Cubit Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 Can't you set the recorder to do motion or continuous at the relevant times required?
james.wilson Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 i wouldnt advise powering down the nvr like that, it will kill it eventually. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
matthew.brough Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 I thought it a little unconventional . . . www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/
Hoppo Posted October 27, 2013 Author Posted October 27, 2013 OK - thanks for the advice. In that case I'll just leave the NVR powered up continuously and connect the IP cameras to a small POE switch powered from the Ion OP as suggested by Datadiffusion. The maximum power draw will be 30W with 4 cameras connected.
datadiffusion Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 That should be better. In any case, it will almost certainly be a 'soft start' from the PoE router. As I say, crashing the NVR off probably not a good idea So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
popjon Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 Bear in mind that when the cameras come online the DVR will detect 'movement' by virtue of going from black screen (no input) to picture restored. When the power goes off you'll get more 'movement' detected. Maybe not what you're intending.
