Q: Questiondo we have the option to be able to zoom in ?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHello tony. Thank you for reaching out with your question. This system offers video in pro-quality Ultra HD to see everything that’s happening live or in playback mode, plus you can digitally zoom in close to see car license plates, faces & so much more. Hope this helps. LV - Swann TeamAnswered by Swann
Q: QuestionWhat does it mean by one way audio?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHi Darren. The cameras have a microphone so that you can hear what’s happening as well as see it. 2-way audio would mean the cameras also have a speaker that you can talk through from your phone. We have other models in our NVR range that feature 2-way audio, but not on these particular cameras here. -SD, Swann TeamAnswered by Swann
Asked by Mick
- A: AnswerHi Chad. This DVR system records 4K at 7 frames per second. If you're looking for higher frame rates & your budget allows then you may wish to have a look at Swann's 4K or 6K NVR systems. The 4K NVR cameras record at 15fps and the 6K ones have the option of 6K at 15fps or 4K at 30fps. Hope that helps. -SD, Swann Team

A: AnswerHi Jon. No, you do not require a subscription to use any Swann product. You can view this system anywhere on the world using the Swann Security app on your phone, for free. -SD, Swann TeamAnswered by Swann
Q: QuestionCan I replace the 2TB HDD with a 12TB HDD?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHi Ki. We have tested hard drive sizes up to 8TB with this DVR and they worked fine. We found that larger hard drives such as 12TB generated too much heat and could have reliability problems. We'd recommend choosing a surveillance-grade drive from a reputable brand. -SD, Swann TeamAnswered by Swann

A setup and customer "support" nightmare
Not a fan of Swann's ability to communicate with potential buyers or their labyrinth-like morass called "support." I was under the impression that this ensemble offered a lot of functionality it apparently does not possess, including the ability to set zones of coverage within each camera; two-way voice communication; and the option of adjusting each camera for brightness, contrast, etc. Simply trying to decipher the "Model" number for any one unit is practically impossible, and the Swann website is less than helpful. My supposed model number is nowhere to be found (I did come within a digit or two, but with dozens to choose from, who knows if that is it?). The menus shown on the PDF manual apparently are not a part of my purchase, and trying to talk to a live human being at Swann is an exercise in frustration and futility. From moment one, the buyer is left confused over how to hook up & launch on a PC rather than a TV, and where to find menus illustrated in the manual but not on the actual interface. The hardware is good enough, but the lack of functionality is maddening, as is the intentional evasiveness of customer support. Not recommended for the home user looking for a system that is relatively easy to set up.

Camera broke
I just bought this brand new set at Best Buy. After installation of this Swann set 8 cameras, right away one is not working. My installer tested all other 7 and those are ok. The installer was kind to put an old camera in (one from my previous set) for temporary and it works well. Apparently that camera is broken/defected. I called Best Buy and was told that I need to have all cameras removed and put back in the box then Best Buy can send it back to Swann for replacement because It has 2 years of warranty. There’s no way for me to hire an installer to take them out after I paid him to install it. So I contacted Swann and requested to have that particular camera replaced. I would not recommend this product because it cost me money to pay the installer to come back the 2nd time and also time to contact Swann for replacement although the quality is good . I’m still waiting for Swann response.
