Q: Box has 5MP and 1080P on it. I called Night Owl told I have a 4K pc monitor,if the cameras record in 5MP and I have monitor to support it but they said the HDMI cord between pc and DVR is 1080p (2MP) how am I suppose to playback in 5MP? Why buy 5MP then?

A: Hi Michelle. The included HDMI cord transmits the resolution set in the DVR. If you have your DVR set to record and playback at 5MP resolution and your TV is compatible with this resolution, then you will not have an issue. You will be able to view your recordings in 5MP on your TV. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!

Q: Are these cameras's water resistant or waterproof? If they aren't waterproof then what model do you have where the camera's are waterproof as these will mounted outside on the side of a building?

A: Good Afternoon, the Night Owl Cameras are weatherproof. When installing them we recommend to not place the cameras where rain or snow will hit the lens directly nor should the cameras be placed so that the sun or bright light shines directly into the lens.The cameras will not work when submerged in water.Also, ensure that all power and video connections are not directly exposed to water and are protected from the elements. Thank you for choosing Night Owl.

Q: can i view this system from my samsung phone, while away from home?

A: Yes. In order to do so you will need a functioning Internet connection. The DVR will need to be connected to your modem/router via the included Ethernet cable. Then, simply download the compatible remote viewing application for Free and configure it to your DVR. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!

Q: I have a night owl 3.0 1080, THD30B-81. What do I need to do to get my audio working? What kind of cord and do I need speakers? Also, could I go back on videos for audio after it is connected?

A: Good Afternoon. We would need to gather some more information from you as to what equipment you have. You say THD30 which is a 3MP kit, but then refer to 1080p and have this posted on a 5MP product page. So, we would need to troubleshoot with you to ensure you have what is required to begin detecting audio. Please call 1-866-390-1303 at your convenience. Thanks!
