  1. Hi,

     

    noticed a feature on the Dahua DVR (P2P), which requires no port forwarding etc...

     

    1. How does this work

    2. How secure or vulnerable does it make the network or cctv when enabled

     

    thanks.

  2. Funnily enough yes...

     

    we fitted two on a roller shutter over a week ago, this weekend we had a call out - tamper then high res within the same minute. Showing closed ever since. We have put it on soak test for now...

     

    Strange - although I don't like the look of the tamper switch within elmdenes G3 junction box. Looks flimsy and unreliable IMO.

  3. Sorry for the vagueness on product specific details...

     

    A guy has rang me & asked if its possible to add an external HDD onto a QVIS (old analogue) DVR... His DVR HDD is knackered & wondered if he could add his own.

     

    Does anyone know if this is possible? If not what are the chances of getting a replacement HDD or will it be replacement unit only.

  4. Is it me or is HIK vision way overhyped? I've never used it before until yesterday & I'd say it looks cheap & nasty which runs in like with what they paid for it so no arguments on that point but I don't think this product is suitable for "any application".

     

    It has a market don't get me wrong but I don't think it warrants the wankfest some people make out...

  5. Looking for a second opinion on what grade an intruder system should be.. Here's the scenario...

     

    - 300m x 150m warehouse

    - Storing medium value vehicles

    - On-site security (in separate hut so alarm is set night time)

    - Typical industrial estate, CCTV is present on site & around the estate

    - Fencing & typical physical features are present

     

    My gut says grade 3 but not sure on the "risk" with onsite security being present? Would this kind of presence bring a system down a grade? I'm thinking what if the security were removed? Or would that be on the installation company to reassess the risk?
