• 2 × DH-IPC-HFW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ-BLK Smart Dual Light bullet cameras (black)
• 2 × DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ-BLK Smart Dual Light eyeball cameras (black)
• 1 × DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ 8-channel PoE recorder
• The recorder's 53 V DC adapter
• A hard drive, only if you chose one in the options

• Cat5e or Cat6 cable from each camera to the recorder
• A monitor or TV with HDMI or VGA for setting up
• Your router, for the DMSS phone app
• A SATA surveillance drive, if you chose No HDD

01

Fit the drive

If you chose No HDD, power off, open the recorder and fit a SATA surveillance drive, then format it from the startup wizard.

02

Mount the cameras

Bullets: three Ø 4.5 mm screws on a 56 mm circle, or a Dahua PFA130-E junction box. Eyeballs: four Ø 4.5 mm holes on a 69 mm circle. Then pan, tilt and rotate each camera to frame the view.

03

Run one cable to each

Cat5e or Cat6 from each camera to a PoE port on the recorder, up to 100 m. The port powers the camera.

04

Set the rules

Connect HDMI and your router, add the recorder to DMSS, then draw tripwire or intrusion zones for people, vehicles or both, and choose when the warm light comes on.

Security

Datatek 24SECCAB cabinet

Locks the recorder and a monitor up to 24″ in a steel wall cabinet, so an intruder can't walk off with the footage.

Extra camera

DH-IPC-HFW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ-BLK or DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ-BLK

Another black bullet or eyeball on its own, for the four free ports on the recorder.

Power backup

ION 650VA UPS

Keeps the recorder and cameras recording through short power cuts and protects them from surges.

Cabling

Cat6 cable

One run from each camera to the recorder, up to the usual 100 m Ethernet limit.

Homes

Bullets on the driveway and back fence, eyeballs under the eaves at the doors.

Shops and cafés

A bullet on the rear lane, eyeballs over the entry and counter, with sound recorded.

Small offices

Bullets on the car park, eyeballs at reception and the side door.

Warehouses and yards

Bullets down the gates and roller doors, eyeballs inside the dock.

Farm sheds

A bullet's alarm output can switch a siren or light when the tripwire is crossed.

Strata common areas

Bin rooms, lift lobbies and car park ramps.

Is this a complete system?

It has four cameras and the recorder that powers and records them. Add Cat6 cable to each camera, a monitor for setting up, and a hard drive if you chose No HDD in the options.

Is a hard drive included?

Only if you choose one. The kit is sold without a hard drive, or with a 2, 4, 8 or 10TB drive fitted: choose the drive size in the options above. The recorder's single SATA bay takes up to 20TB.

Which lenses do the cameras have?

Dahua makes both the bullet and the eyeball with a 2.8 mm lens (110° across) or a 3.6 mm lens (86° across, sees detail a little further). Confirm with us which lenses are in stock when you order.

How far do the cameras see at night?

Up to 30 m with IR and up to 30 m with warm light. In colour they work down to 0.007 lux at F1.4, and with the lights on they record at 0 lux.

Will the warm light stay on all night?

No, not in Smart Dual Light mode. It comes on when a person or vehicle is detected and goes back to IR when they leave. You can also set the light to auto or manual in the camera settings.

Do the cameras have a speaker or siren?

No. Every camera has a built-in microphone, so it records sound. The two bullets also have an RCA audio output and an alarm output, so a powered speaker, siren or light can be connected to them. For a built-in siren, strobe and two-way talk, look at the Dahua TiOC kits.

Can the recorder power all four cameras?

Yes. Dahua's maximum is 10 W for each bullet and 9.5 W for each eyeball, 39 W for all four, and the recorder supplies up to 78 W across its 8 ports.

Why a mix of bullets and eyeballs?

Bullets suit long views down driveways and fences and carry audio and alarm ports. Eyeballs are smaller and suit eaves, porches and ceilings. Both record 8MP with the same lenses and lights.

Can I add more cameras later?

Yes, four more. The recorder has 8 channels and 8 PoE ports, and this kit uses 4. It also takes ONVIF cameras from other brands.

Can the recorder take every camera at full resolution?

Yes. Dahua rates each camera's stream at up to 16384 kbps (about 16 Mbps), so four cameras need up to about 66 Mbps, inside the recorder's 180 Mbps with AI on. It records cameras up to 16MP.

Does this kit do AcuPick search?

No, not with this recorder. The cameras support AcuPick with a Dahua recorder that offers it, and Dahua lists AcuPick on its NVR5 AI recorders, not on the NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ. This recorder gives Quick Pick, which picks people and vehicles out of the cameras' SMD events so you can find them quickly. The kit code DH-ACU8867B-4BD is kept from the earlier listing.

What warranty does it have?

Dahua gives these 3 Series network cameras and NVR4 recorders a 3-year manufacturer warranty. Claims are handled in Australia through InFront Technologies: call 1300 736 970 or email [email protected].
