Hi All
Could I gauge how many professional installers on here are either SSAIB or NSI registered and how many find they don't actually need the registration as they don't do much insurance or police response work.
If you aren't registered do you find it harder to find work and what is your niche market?
-
for the replies,
so would you use two systems linked with radio and one comms unit then or two separate units
-
Hi all
I wanted to know if, firstly if its possible and if so has anyone used this method. I talk about linking a power rio in an out building to the main panel with rs485 to ethernet converters. you could then link the buildings with a wireless link.
Thoughts please.

I originally asked if you applied a bit rate to your common installs as a starting point.
Petrolhead is the only one who quoted bit rates as a typical example, which wasn't the second post.
Then you come at me with grammar mistakes and accuse me of being a none English speaker!
Where does your arrogance end?
Shouldnt admins clamp down on this type of obvious bullying? I thought this forum was for debate and problem solving but I guess I am wrong, just another typical forum when a few individuals lord it over everyone else.
Please dont bother replying as I don't care what you have to say anymore.

Well I apologise, but i asked a simple question and got answers like I was a noob!
i was simply trying to engage in conversation
ive learnt my lesson, I won't bother again

Or is it the arrogance of so called professionals that plaque the industry
of course there here is many cases that one solution is a starting point!
we're not all newbies here !

I was asking if you had a standard bit rate you set your camera installs too..
i understand you say every install is different but they aren't, most fit a standard when it comes to bit rate resolution and frame complexity
i asked what bit rates you use as standard and your first reply petrolhead didn't include this, in fact no ones did! Just the usually rubbish about making people feel superior

Thank you petrolhead first actually answer. I totally agree with the extra frames (25fps) it's easy to lower but you can easily miss the frame with the impact etc. Then you just have before and after.
The scene completely is something that has a massive effect on storage. I worked on a police detention centre project and the flooring was hardened resin, which had different flecks in it. So the camera saw a constantly changing image even with an empty cell! At night with the ir on it was even worse.
Its a complete lottery at times, we had cameras at 6Mbps and the image was average, but that was more the camera. They only had 86 cameras and set to 1Mbps 96TB wasn't enough. Turns out windows, which the vms was working on needs 40Gbs per camera
-
If you use ip cameras you could use sd cards in the camera as a backup for stolen nvr.
Or use it as edge recording on something like a milestone vms
The whole motion vs continuous is an interesting one. Everyone uses motion for storage saving but isn't it better to have continuous for business customers? You could miss the action with motion depending on settings as environment
-
Oh it's not for a project it's just for information
I was just wondering if people had a default set up which they use for most systems. After all most will need 31 days retention and 25 fps if they want real looking footage. So it's the bit rate that determines the storage/image quality
-
1080p h.264
25fps
-
Is it?
surely you have a default standard, a basic setting you know the image will be satisfactory?
-
How insightful!
but what is the best length of string for perfect images while conserving storage?
-
Hi all,
just thinking what constant bit rate you all use all use as a standard for your ip camera installs
i guess some of you use a variable bit rate, but with that how do you work out your storage needs?
-
Ok, cool.
Thanks for the quick reply
-
Quick question, can you fit a wireless unit to a G2-12 like you can the G2-20 & G2-44?
-
Hi all,
I was asked whether I could monitor a rental property for water leaks.
Ive come up with the idea of a G2-12 panel in the loft with honeywells water sensors under the sink. Linked through the panel to a relay to turn off the 240vac to a power solenoid on the stop ****. It's 240vac as I didn't want to fit a power supply under the sink although they work from 5vdc to 240vac!
what does everyone think???

Hi Jim Carter
Just one more question, I see the nano includes something for the first year. Not sure how much I can say openly. Is this the cost for udl or conxtd or something else?
-
Thank you for you reply, very informative and has cleared up some of my questions
-
Also, can you still use the galaxy gx app or texecom app with a nano for udl and monitoring for instance with the contxd app subscription?
-
So does the app need to be open for push notifications to be seen?
also are the notifications a splash screen when the phone is locked like a text or is it an email?
-
Hi
will dahua cameras/dvrs be supported soon?
-
I see, so you can't control you panel with it just monitor it
can you put ip cameras through it too?

So I'm guessing for a small company the hoops you have to jump through may not be worth it.
Do you have a niche market or do you just fit alarms and cctv to domestic and small business?
