u/oncentreline

I plugged in my AY210 base after it going unused for about 6 months and all of a sudden if jerked rather violently anticlockwise and now won‘t center properly.

I’ve contacted support at the start of the week and after an initial response, they’re now ghosting me.

Anyone had any positive interactions with support?

I fitted an AC Infinity rack mount cooling unit a few weeks ago to add some much needed ventilation during the hot weather we’re getting currently in the UK (am shooting for a positive pressure setup).

I also fitted a 0.5mm mesh filter to try and reduce (as much as possible) any dust from making its way into the rack. As you’d expect, the mesh filter restricts airflow, somewhat severely I might add, so I’m curious as to what people are doing to A) keep their racks cool and B) keep them somewhat dust free at the same time.

Also, how people are using open racks for their gear is beyond me (so much potential for dust to get everywhere 😪).

I bought these on a bit of a whim and I’m a bit worried about using them in my rack given they’re made primarily out of plastic (they’ll be supporting everything from the 2U UPS to the 24 port HD POE switch).

I’ve only noticed that this is happening recently (which isn’t to say it’s been happening for a while), anyone else experiencing the same?

I found this role of 1.5mm twin and earth cable in my loft underneath some insulation which I assume has been up there since the house was built in 1992. I feel like the answer is yes given there are cables in the walls of the house that are of the same age, but I thought I’d check (the cables are red, black and CPC) given new colour coding is different.

For the life of me, I cannot get any of my alarms that contain AND statemnets/conditional filters to work.

I've tried the following but neither work (FWIW, when I tried all the settings on their own, they fire alerts but when combining, I get nothing):

1. Simple line crossing alert for a known vehicle (using a recognized license plate)
2. Notifying me when a door is open the LUX settting is either below or above a safe range

Is there a trick to this that I'm missing?

My understanding for dry-contact relays was that it’s best practise to switch the live/line connectors through the device rather than the neutral wires? If that’s the case, why do the Relay instructions show connecting the neutral through the dry contacts?

It seems to me that requiring a dedicated 12v line to power the relay limits where it can be used (or at least makes installation a little more difficult).

Any particilar reason Ubiquiti chose to power the Relay via a seperate 12v feed rather than just off of the input voltage of a 240v feed (I'm in the UK)? The picture is just a test/demo setup whilst I get things configured.

I’ve been playing around with the USL Fob for the past week or so since getting it.
However, tonight when I pressed one of the buttons that I have configured actions for, I got Phantom alarm notifications.
I don’t have any alarms set up to notify me or anyone else in the event of a fob button being pressed so I’m really not sure why Protect sent me a notification.

Anyone seen this before?

I’ve had the Relay for a few weeks now and I’ve recently been scratching my head trying to think what I should actually do with it.

My garage doors already have automation and I can’t help but think the Relay would be infinitely more useful if it had wet contacts that supplied 120v/240v AC rather than having just dry contacts.

Curious to know how people are using their Relays with lights in particular?

Simply put, I'm able to create an alarm that notifies me whenever a line is crossed that I've drawn on two of my G6 Turrets.

However, what I'd really like is to be notified whenever a person crosses the lines I've drawn. I've tried a bunch of different alarm settings but the only settings that I've been able to get to fire are where I've specified a line crossing only (with no other decection settings).

Anyone been able to get line crossings to work with object detections?

I've just adopted a new relay into my network and I'm pretty sure I should be seeing some output options under the Action settings in Alarm Manager no?

I’m running into an issue that is causing a lot of image flickering. It’s clear to see in the video when I’m playing around with the floodlight I’m planning to install that there’s big visual artefacts in a very specific part of the image.

Long story short, I’ve tried about 5-6 different floodlights but they all cause issues with a G6 Turret I have at night.

Anyone solved this? FWIW, changing between 50hz and 60hz camera setting makes no difference

Now that we're getting into summer, my rack is starting to get a little warm. To combat this, I've installed two AC Infinity Cloudplate 2U cooling units (one intake at the bottom and one exhaust at the top) but realized with the glass door closed, the exhaust primiarly venting back into the rack.

I have a Cloudplate 3U unit on the way that I'm thinking to replace the buttom 2U fan unit with and complete do away with the top fan unit to create a positive pressure scenario inside the cabinet but am not sure if this'll work any better.

I'm curious to know how other people are cooling their racks?

Currently, I’ve stuck the AIO sensor to the door frame but the instructions say to mount it to the door itself.

Anyone know as to why?
