What speed is that vehicle travelling at?

Camera is around 20ft from the road looking straight at it neither looking up or down the road to avoid getting blinded by its lights. Can these ANPR cams cope with moving vehicles travelling quite quick?

I need another Hik camera to monitor traffic going past my house here in the countryside preferably able to read plate numbers if possible. Currently using colorvu cams this past 4 years. Traffic goes past very quickly and they come up very blurred and all I can manage is getting the colour of...

Has anyone rigged up a 4G camera system powered by solar for remote jobs? I need a system that I can set in a field and view remotely for several hours and then lift it and take it home again till the next outing. I have loads of Hik cameras here which I can use but not sure what’s needed for...

Yes but not all my installs are focused on recording. Remote viewing is the focus so like I said, SD is poor and again I said the systems I checked yesterday are all working in HD remotely in low broadband connections. Cameras are different so might investigate that route.

But SD is poor. I logged into a few setups today all running HD in Hik-Connect and they’re on a broadband connection of less than 1mb upload and all working fine. HD must be determined differently depending on the camera setting configured which I need to locate.

I have a few people asking me about why they are having Hik-Connect issues remotely with regards to connection streaming errors and they can’t seem to view their cameras on the HD option. Runs ok on SD but they aren’t happy with the quality especially at night viewing. Cameras are running of a...

Old man has been with Sky now with Full TV package 32yrs and never once left or looked for anything and is still using a Sky+ box which is about dead. Utter madness. Looked on his MySky app and all I see for upgrades is a £4 discount to upgrade to ultra HD at £8. What sort of deal would one be...

Need to install a few for someone who needs vital coverage at night as that’s when activity seems to be at its highest more than during the day. Is there vast improvement going with 8MP over 4MP at night these days as low MP always seemed to work better at night? I need to get back into the...

Can anyone tell me what are the latest Hik colorvu cams 4/8MP with sound? I was having a look and there seems to be more letters after these cams than when I first installed mine nearly 3 years ago now.

I always use an NVR when doing installs for people when asked but for this install, the guy doesn’t want one but wants sdcards instead. It does the job but I worry about the reliability of the cards especially when it’s not your own. In an NVR it would give an audible alarm if there is an issue...

Thats separate from Hik-Connect video notification. Also, there is no NVR, just Cams with SDCards.

Is there a way to make the video playback notifications in Hik-Connect longer? A few seconds isn’t long enough once a line crossing point is crossed.

Anyone know an easy way of changing settings such as line crossing remotely with Hik cameras? I’ve quite a few systems installed for people and you always have those few that want it tweaked. Never happy. Pain in the backside having to go and make the change.

It is located around 70m away and they have a number of devices already wired to it and using it’s wifi and they don’t want it changed. Hassle, it works and when BT send a new router out, they just plug and play. They don’t want it changed and that’s that. Unfortunately The company that...

Hi guys. Need a bit of help here. Guy has asked me to setup his Edgerouter x Sfp after he reset it. I haven’t worked with these before so on a learning curve here. He has A BT home hub in his home and a large office and shed outside. A cable comes from the BT hub to the Edgerouter in the...

Turquoise is earth. Not good quality when the earth is that colour. Join the two earths to your existing earth. Light must be in two halves hence the two earths

My eyes are still good then :D

Those three cables from the new light, if my eyes aren’t playing tricks, I see a brown, blue and green sleeved core behind those wires?

What cover do you recommend for the 12.9?
