A:AnswerThe 2-PK of cameras you ordered is part of our HDA Series. The original system you purchased was our AHD Series. The housing on the HDA Series cameras was changed to a polycarbon material. This makes the cameras more lightweight for installation and manual camera adjustments. The specifications of the camera are nearly identical and both cameras have a weatherproof rating for Indoor and Outdoor use. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!
A:AnswerHello Matt, the cameras will have the ability of recording based on motion and will be able to record sound. Please keep in mind that in order to use the cameras you will need to plug them into a Night Owl DVR. Thank you for choosing Night Owl.
A:AnswerYes, these cameras are 100% compatible with that system. Keep in mind, they do not contain Spotlight technology. But if connected, they will display 1080p video and work. Thank you!
A:AnswerYes, we provide 60 ft cables one for each of the cameras within the package along with a power adapter and splitter so you may power up the cameras. Please keep in mind these cameras are for add-on/replacement cameras for Night Owl DVRs. Thank you for choosing Night Owl.
A:AnswerOur add-on cameras are intended to be added to a compatible Night Owl device. We cannot guarantee setup directly to a TV. Many customers can get the camera to live view on the TV by purchasing a BNC to RCA adapter. But we do not guarantee this will work and you would not have many crucial features provided by the device. Thank you for understanding.
A:AnswerThese cameras must be added to a compatible Night Owl DVR. They are not for standalone use. Your Night Owl DVR only needs to be connected to a modem/router if you wish to view it remotely on a PC/MAC or a Smart Device. To remotely view your system, you must manually connect an Ethernet cable from your modem/router to the DVR. If you do not want remote viewing, you can connect the system to a TV or monitor to view live video feed and recordings. Thanks for choosing Night Owl!
A:AnswerNo, these cameras aren't compatible with your current system. Your current system is capped at 960H resolution, and these cameras exceed that resolution. Please contact our pre-sales department at 1-866-979-0580 or email [email protected] for more information on compatible products!
A:AnswerBy default, most all Night Owl systems are set to record when motion is detected by one of the cameras. If a camera detects motion within the cameras field of view, a recording is generated and stored on your hard drive. If enabled, a push alert is sent to your Smart Device via our Free mobile App. The record settings for your device can be adjusted within the Main Menu, should you wish to alter the settings for one or more cameras. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!
