CCTV Cameras and CCTV Sysems

ukehub — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 13:23:40 +0000

–>: Hi I am looking for a CCTV camera to put in my horse’s stable one
–>: that will work day and night and preferably wireless
—>: Sure…how many CCTV camera’s are you interested in?
–>: probably 4. I was also wondering if it was possible to see the images from the cameras on my lap top at home ?
—>: yes that is possible…the DVR has the capability of remote access, all you need is a STATIC IP address
—>: now how far do you want the camera’s to see especially at night?
–>: not that far to be honest, be the equivalent from an average bungalow roof to the floor
—>: safe to say 10m night vision
–>: yeah
—>: what kind of a budget do you have in mind? The reason i ask this is because wireless transmitters itself are £150.00
–>: Don’t have a clue about budget to be honest, was just trying to get an idea of what I need to
–>: look for and how much it was going to cost
—>: Are you looking for just the supply or supply and fit
–>: is it possible to get quotes for both please
—>: Sure, just bear with
—>: me while i work out the cost
—>: May I have your postcode to check installer availability local to you
–>: it is HX3 5HL
—>: without installation the cost for Full 4 Camera Wireless System would be £1500.00 + VAT
—>: Bear with me while I work out with installation
—>: Now with installation, the cost would be £1850.00 + VAT
–>: that’s brill, thanks for your help
—>: My direct line is 0208 035 8670 if you would like to place an order
—>: i can also work out a discount if you are interested in making the purchase today

ukehub — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 09:35:37 +0000

–>: Hello. I need a discreet cctv to place upon driveway but from indoors, behing glass.
–>: behind glass
–>: Hello?
—>: sorry about that
—>: and you need night vision camera’s
–>: Well, I wouldnt want to let anyone know about the camera..
–>: maybe a low lux camera?
—>: The low lux camera will not work in pitch dark conditions
—>: As long as you have some light outside the low lux camera will work fine
–>: I see. But as its going to be pinting out from glass,
–>: is it possible for a seperate invisible infra red illuminator?
–>: Just a faint street light?
—>: As soon as the infrared switches on, it will bounce back from the glass
—>: Yes what you could do, buy the low lux camera and see if it works well
—>: with the street light, if not then you can buy the infrared illuminators
—>: and put it outside the window
–>: ok. can i place illumiators on a different spot but pinting to the same
–>: direction that the camera is pointing? i aplogise for taking up tto much of your time.
—>: not a problem at all
–>: excuse my spelling
—>: please provide me your first name, last name, email address and phone number
—>: i will make a quick quotation and email it to you
–>: price for low lux camera and illuminator?
—>: http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/bdy-uz-dome-cctv-security-camera.aspx

Night Vision CCTV System at affordable price.

ukehub — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 14:07:58 +0000

–>: Hi Kevin, am looking for a few camera to replace ded ones on my super yacht
—>: No problem Michael. How many cameras are you looking to replace and their range?
–>: I would guess 9 including spares so say 11 plus maybe a dome camera too
–>: not sure what you mean about range, the yacht is 37m loa
—>: No problem. What is the night vision range required on the camera?
—>: I mean how far the cameras need to see especially in the dark
–>: they connect to an Everfocus controler etc
–>: Have not really thought about Night vision, maybe one would be useful
—>: Are they to go indoors or outdoors?
–>: half and half
—>: Night vision is an added advantage in low light conditions and not much of a price difference from day cameras.
–>: 4 outside
–>: ok, well that is a bonus
—>: So all you are looking for is the cameras right? You have the DVR there along with the cables and power supplies/
–>: exactly, only 4 cameras working now so best to put all new
—>: OK let me work out a quote for you with my recommendations.
—>: Can I take your full name, email and a contact number please? I shall have the quote on your screen in 5 mins.
–>: sure
–>: Captain Michael Williamson
–>: M/Y Private Lives
—>: Which country would the delivery be to?
–>: we are in Montenegro but I have a package leaving UK for us next week or so
–>: UK
—>: http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/q-Michael-1576
—>: Please click on the link above to view my recommendations.
–>: thanks
–>: I have seen the products, I would appreciate an explanation if possible and also a done camera that would be compatible with my everfocus DVR. Otherwise they all look fine, only one more thing is the way they attach to the wall/ceiling etc and if they come with mounts
–>: Dome camer
–>: camera
—>: Sure. All cameras would be compatible with Everfocus DVR as long as they have the BNC twist on type connections.
—>: Indoor cameras are to be wall mounted or ceiling?
–>: some are mounted on little brackets others held by metal bracket, can I send pictures?
—>: Yes sure (kevin@ukcctv.co.uk).
–>: what about the Dome Camera?
–>: DVR is BNC but the camers have only a cable, my spark can take care of that, what about power supply?
—>: Have you got the power cables running alongside BNC cable? Also do you have 12V PSUs for the cameras?
–>: there are power cables there, think they are 12VDC, most of the ship is on 24 but I suspect the cameras will be on 12
—>: OK I believe you would need power supplies (transformers) to put on the cables. Correct?
–>: what power do the cameras require?
—>: 12V DC… 1000 mA (max)
–>: Then I think that is available there.
—>: OK that should be fine then.
–>: and the Dome Cam?
—>: Dome cameras come with ceiling mounts but we can provide wall mounts if you require?
–>: will need to be in waterproof housing, what about the control for this, are they standard or at least work with the everfocus?
—>: They are fully weather proof and IP rated. These are static cameras so no special controls required and should be plug and play with BNC connections of Everfocus DVR.
–>: OK, so if I take some pics of the static cameras then you can have a look at the mounting options and get back to me?
—>: Yes sure.
–>: ok, will take some pics now and wait for you to get back to me. Can we deliver w/o VAT as these are for export, I have commercial papers for the vessel and will either pay by TT or Swiss CC?
—>: We have to charge VAT by law if the delivery is within the UK. However you can claim it back with export documents.
–>: I can have another UK company purchase them as he is exporting all my other goods. I will arrange that with him
—>: No problem.
–>: right, will take a pic of each and mail them to you now
—>: Sure. I look forward to receiving the pictures.
–>: taking them now
—>: No problem.
–>: sending now
–>: Done
—>: Just waiting to receive it
—>: Got the email. Just looking at it now.
–>: thanks
–>: any comments?
—>: By looking at the pictures connections is the same so that’s fine. Also the cameras will mount easily on the positions shown and it will just screw on.
—>: Dome is only about 5 inches in diameter.
—>: You have PTZ (pan tilt zoom) camera there.
—>: You don’t want to replace that with a PTZ camera?
–>: yes, thats what I meant by dome camera, sorry
—>: Ohh OK sorry. You need one of those right?
—>: or more?
–>: one
–>: all the others are pretty stationary
–>: nice to be able to move the engine room ones around a bit but not essential
—>: No problem.
—>: I am just going to update it in your quote.
—>: Please check if it’s OK.
–>: roger
—>: Great! So just await your confirmation on the order and I will ship it out to you on Monday and you should have it Tuesday/Wednesday.

->>> what camera is best for outdoors?
->>> what type
->>> dome?
->> Depends on your scenario really. Where are you going to mount the camera?
->>> front and back of the house
->>> i want a wide angle
->> OK, how far do you need to see from the camera especially in the dark?
->>> and i dont want the camera to look obvious
->>> 5-10m
->> http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/dcn-h25a-night-vision-outdoor-dome-cctv-camera.aspx
->> The camera above would be a good fit.
->> http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/dcn-u25a-dome-cctv-security-camera.aspx
->> Also, the one above can be hidden under the eaves.
->> Both gives wide angle.
->>> yeh i like the look of the dome ones
->>> so both of these will work at night?
->> Yes they will. The last one being on the higher quality side.
->>> i was reading i should get one which is recording in color
->>> during the day and monochrome with IR at night
->>> what do you recommend
->> They both do exactly the same
->> Colour pictures during the day and black and white
->> crisp image in pitch dark conditions.
->>> theyre fixed position ones right?
->>> not like the ones which can be controlled to look around from inside?
->> Fixed positions yes but with a varifocal lens
->> where angle of view can be adjusted.
->> For moving cameras you need PTZ cameras
->> which are relatively more expensive.
->>> the angle of view being adjusted would that need to be done
->>> with me physically touching the camera or from a remote joystick?
->> By you manually from the camera.
->>> would you recomend i buy a special screen
->>> which allows me to view all the cameras simultaneously?
->>> or is there software for this
->>> so i can use it on any pc in my house
->> Best thing would be to go with a digital video recorder
->> which comes with its own hard drive.
->> You can then link it to your PC as well as remote viewing.
->>> is the digital video recorder neccessary?
->>> can i not just record to my own hard drive
->> No you cannot.
->>> so which recorder do i need?
->> Unless you go with a DVR PCI card which causes
->> too many software issues and make your PC really slow.
->>> a HD one?
->> http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/4channel-digital-video-recorde.xhtm
->> Any of these recorders would do.
->> For PTZ cameras you need the advanced model.
->>> ok
->>> and any of these recorders would handle the data from 4 cctv cameras?
->>> and then i could move it as needed
->> yes
->>> to another hard drive
->> That’s righ.
->>> so the amount of memory on my actual recorder wouldnt be of much significance?
->> It will be as you do not want to be transferring
->> images from your DVR to computer everyday.
->> Or like when you are away on holiday, it should do at least 1-2 weeks.
->> 250 GB is usually fine on 4 cameras.
->>> ah ok understood, i should probably just go for the higher memory ones
->>> and the cameras have ‘tagging’? ie putting the date and time
->>> on the bottom of the recording so i know when it was right?
->> Correct!
->>> ok
->>> assuming i want to put in a 5th camera
->>> would i need another recorder
->>> because most of these say 4 channel?
->> http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/8channel-digital-video-recorde.xhtm
->> You will need to go with an 8 channel then if you intend to do so.
->>> ok
->>> and what about the wires
->>> do you know what connecting wires i would need
->>> im intending to set it up myself
->> http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/pre-made-combo-power-cable-cab-bnc.aspx
->> You would require these cables.
->>> only those?
->> http://www.ukcctv.co.uk/12v-dc-1000ma-uk-power-supply-p-1000.aspx
->> Yes and these power supplies.
->>> ah ok seems simple enough
->>> for the front of my house
->>> i was planning on putting in motion detectors
->>> which trigger some sort of lighting
->>> would i still need these cameras of such high quality
->>> (which are also of a high price)
->>> can i get some which are cheaper but of the same quality
->>> during the day and use the light put on from the sensor to work better
->> The DVR has motion detection facility where it will make cameras trigger
->> by movement and only record upon movement.
->>So no need for the motion detectors.
->> You get what you pay for really, if you go with cheaper cameras
->> then you would receive quality accordingly.
->>> can i link the motion sensor from the camera to external lighting
->>> or is this complicated
->> An electrician might be able to.
->> But motion sensors are not in the camera. It is a facility in the DVR.
->>> sorry whats DVR an abreviation for
->> digital video recorder.
->>> ah ok
->>> i cant seem to find the range on the cameras anywhere
->>> can we assume that i use the second camera you linked me to
->>> i put it 6ft above the ground
->>> what should i expect to be able to see?
->> It will give you an angle of 70 degrees and a night vision
->> range up to 25 meters in pitch dark conditions.
->>> i understand its distance is set and how its lens size is..
->>> but what will i be able to see
->>> 70 degrees is that downward from the horizontal at the point
->>> the camera touches the wall?
->> You can adjust its lens to adjust the zoom to be able to
->> capture what you require the most.
->>> ok
->>> thanks kevin

CCTV – for Pizzerias and other Restaurants

ukehub — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 14:11:20 +0000

—>: Hi, I am one of the Chat Operators here at UKCCTV. How can I assist you today?
–>: hi
–>: what I’m looking for is a system for 2 small units I run next to each other
–>: 1: a burger kiosk
–>: 2: a pizza takeaway/delivery
–>: there tends to be a lot of greese in the atmosphere so i need a camera that will be durable abd will stand up to a lot of cleaning
–>: is there such a thing?
—>: Let me check this for you…
–>: Please wait while I transfer the chat to ‘Kevin’.
–>: You are now chatting with ‘Kevin’
–>: Hi Kevin
–>: Hi Andy. OK, so you require a 2 robust camera complete system with recording I understand?
–>: I have to small high output food outlets 1 burger kiosk and 1 pizza takeaway/delivery
–>: unfortunately they are not connected other than wirelessly
–>: I would like to monitor both opporations from my office off site
–>: the cams I need will need to stan dup to the greese/cleaning etc
–>: do you feel 1 cam each place would be enough?
–>: That depends on how big the place is?
–>: Are they small shops?
–>: do you have a guide?
–>: relatively small shops with upto 4-5 emplyees in at 1 time
–>: 2 cameras would be ideal at both corners looking diagnally
–>: and do people tend to get microphones installed too?
–>: Not a lot to be honest.
–>: ok thanks – I have had a camera in before but the greese seemed to have got inside it etc. and with cleaning the outter dome became dull
–>: o you have any hardwaring/durible solutions?
–>: I wouldn’t recommend a dome in your scenario. It would have to be an outdoor camera which withstands this. How it would work is, basically you would have 1 or 2 cameras attached to a DVR. DVR will be connected to your Internet router to broadcast images over the Internet.
–>: So you need to have DVR and Internet at both places.
–>: I have internet in 1 and a wireless conetion in the other – if I have a DVR I guess it wouldnt matter if the connection wasnt 100% perfect all the time as it would be recxorded?
–>: Absolutely! The DVR has a built in hard drive where images can be set to store continuously or upon motion detection.
–>: ok great and then would this save on my office pc as well or no need?
–>: It has a USB port so you can just stick in a USB stick and download images that you need and play it on a PC or use it for police evidence.
–>: ok and so what about staff tampering with – prehaps ‘accidentaly’ taking out wires etc if they dont like the idea of being recorded
–>: could you let me know which cameras you would recomend as well please
