    Branded NVR vs. Home Built Unit

    You can do it in BI, but they say in the help that it will increase the CPU utilization significantly and are recommending against it. They say you should rather adjust the FPS in the camera settings, which obviously makes it impossible to play & record at different FPS rates.

    PLC Code How To: Webset Every 5 minutes

      Hi LarryLix,   I am still new to the WC8 and I was having a hard time following your programming as it was too sophisticated for me. I am also still unsure of how the GOTO works and where it goes from there as opposed to the CALLSUB. After reviewing it for along time I think I did get an idea...

    PLC Code How To: Webset Every 5 minutes

    So this what I tried so far to test it: MOD CM 5 RAM80 TSTEQ RAM80 0 ADD 1 VAR6 VAR6 So VAR6 should increase by 1 every 5 minutes. The problem that I see is that RAM80 stays 0 every 5 minutes for the entire minute which increases VAR6 by thousands. Doing this to Webset a variable on the ISY...

    PLC Code How To: Webset Every 5 minutes

I searched the forum but couldn't come up with the answer.   I have my WC8 setup to set variables on my ISY-994 upon the digital input status changes & is working fine. I want to set up a heartbeat...

    Newbie Help with Input Status

    Thanks CAI_Support,       I have seen on the web people mentioning this & complaining about it, including in the Amazon reviews. But I don’t really understand what the issue is. Isn’t this what the N/O & N/C connections on the relay are for? So you can connect your wire to either one, depending...

    Thank you very much Tschmidt for helping me. I will look into the various option you mentioned. I do have this 8 channel relay http://www.amazon.com/SainSmart-8-CH-8-Channel-Relay-Module/dp/B0057OC5WK which I think is what you mean with "Electromechanical relays (EMR)", so I will start with this...

    Thank you all for your help, Can you please give me a link to which optocoupler to get? As I mentioned I have very little knowledge about these electrical stuff. I thought this is just going to be plug & play, connect 8 sensors to the board, write the PLC code to update a variable on my ISY-994...

    I tested again now connecting the 15 feet magnetic sensor cable to IP1 and 5V. Now I did see VAR5 increasing by 1 about every 30 seconds. That's still not acceptable. I added a second resistor between ground and IP1, then it seemed to completely stop. Though I only watched it for 2-3 minutes. Do...
