does Enterprise NVR run same software as consumer NVR?

I've got a UNVR at home and I like it

At work we have an avigilon system with a whole mix of cameras

I've run out of camera licences on the avigilon system (waiting on quote for more) but I'm tempted to jump ship to ubiquity

already have ubiquity router/switches/a few cameras on that system

but... the avigilon playback is really nice... it's like you see on cop shows on tv, pick the cameras and slide the mouse around the time bar and it'll fast forward/rewind though the recordings like you're scrolling through a downloaded film

don't want to swap to the ubiquity enterprise nas if the playback etc. is the same as the consumer one I have at home, it's a bit clunky/harder to navigate :-o

camera for inside freezer

anyone have any ideas for cameras inside walk in freezers? (poe)

fitted a dahua dome camera years ago, figured it was worth a try

works ok most of the time but fogs up a lot (inside and out)

could do with some sort of small heater to stop it frosting up... but I guess being poe screws that?

could fit a camera which has DC input too if I could separate the dc input inside, then I just need to run a feed to the dc and connect it up to a tiny heater inside.. maybe just a bit resistor?

ANPR when camera turned 90' ??

I have 2x G6 cameras turned 90' watching outside our shutter at work

2 screens just inside the shutter with viewports, screens also turned 90' - so when we're driving a forklift in/out we can check for traffic etc.

hallway mode doesn't really work because I want the screens rotated 90' too

ANPR isn't working... I'm pretty sure it was working when the cameras were normal orientation when I was setting them up

any ideas anyone?

fibre cable strung up in the air?

I want to install some automatic gates at home, put a camera at the gates and a doorbell (unifi version of ring doorbell)

Gates are about 80m from the house (we're out in the sticks)

I can't burry the cable all the way, there's too much path etc. I'd have to dig to them fix

There's an old (unused) telegraph pole about half way, I want to run a galvanised steel wire/rope from the house to that, cable tie the fibre/power cables to it, run down to the ground and then underground the rest of the way

will outdoor/armoured cable be ok up in the air cable tied to a steel wire? I could cable tie it on every ft or so?

I've got unifi on each end with sfp+ ports, so I think I need 2 of these.... https://uk.store.ui.com/uk/en/category/accessories-modules-fiber/collections/accessories-pro-multi-mode-optical-fiber/products/1-gbps-multi-mode-optical-module?variant=uacc-om-mm-1g-d-2

and an 100m lc to lc om2 armoured cable?

unifi camera/protect feed to 3rd party server?

I bought a couple of unifi cameras so I can use a couple of view ports to have extra camera feed displays - i have a udm pro max router already

I already have a good cctv system running 20 cameras, 200tb of storage etc. etc.

is there any way i can get a feed out of the cameras or protect to the outside server? it's much easier to check recordings etc. if they're all on the same system

3x Quattro 48/15000 in parallel with grid - energy meters too small?

UK grid, 3 phase 240v/phase (415v phase to phase) - commercial install

I have 3x Victron Quattro 48/15000 and a big battery bank (that I'm still building)

google says I need "victron energy meters" aka ct clamps installed on the grid feed... but the largest ones I can see are 100amps... I have a 400 amp mains feed

any ideas anyone? google isn't helping much, lots of conflicting info.

as a side note... I'll be adding solar soon... what's peoples preference... go solar inverter straight into grid and let the quattro charge instead of grid feeding... or put the solar power straight into the batteries? I have about 100kwh of 48v lithium so far (used Nissan leaf cells built into 5kwh packs) should be over 200kwh by the time I'm done. solar direct into grid would make wiring much simpler,save running long DC cables
