Zen Engineering Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 What about using a GSM module Luke to control his outputs seperately? Depending how often he wanted to carry out this commands, he could monitor his cameras via his phone and then use text messages to trigger the control outputs?

skywalker Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 What about using a GSM module Luke to control his outputs seperately? Depending how often he wanted to carry out this commands, he could monitor his cameras via his phone and then use text messages to trigger the control outputs? that was one of the first things we suggested to him but he said no, as he wants a solution with just one app, and wants to be able to see the gates open and then close. its looking like we're just going to use either geovision or eneo DVR like we use as standard, and a pelco D to relay output converter, we did offer him better solutions but he went for this one. will be interesting to see how it turns out, as i've not used one of these converters before.

petrolhead Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Avtech ip camera? 2 way audio, push notifications and trigger the output straight from the app. Then use an avtech dvr at the house so everything uses the same app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alarm Protection Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Our main DVR is the Luxrite Vectus range. Easy to set up and user friendly. Very similar to the Dynamic MX but a far better unit. ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alterEGO Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Got two sites with random remote access problems using these units. Can't pin down the actual cause but a tad suspicious.We binned them after two sites that were monitored had nothing but trouble. We use them for local recording on those sotes but use hitel for transmission. Shame as I liked them. yep, since this ppost we've moved to hikvision for everything. very impressed with the kit! we've utilised the relay outputs for allsorts. from lights and gates, to sirens and door locks. also replaced the DVR at home from a DS2 to a hikvision one. Which hikvision units are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrolhead Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Have you had the push alarm working reliably with hikvision? It seems ios7 borked it. Avtech updated their eagleeyes app and fixed after ios 7 broke it on that but it still seems hit or miss on the hikvision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
