PIR motion detection

[Demoura]

Hi

I currently use in my house 2 Dlink Ip cameras and the D-link video recording solution.
Thinking about moving to a NAS and would like to consolidate the surveillance there.
Would the QNAP SS accept PIR motion detection, or only video motion detection?

regards

The NAS doesn't have any digital I/O channels as you have in a home security system.
However, when using a camera that either has a built-in PIR detector and Alarm I/O, such as the Hikvision 'cube' cameras (2432 etc) or a camera with Alarm I/O these could be used to trigger recordings or other event actions.

Hi all,
I have managed to make a Hikvision Cube camera with PIR and Alarm I/O to record on the Qnap SS only on the events triggered by the PIR, having disabled the soft motion detection. I was exasperated by the number of false alarms triggered by the soft motion detection on clouds and light changes as this camera was monitoring an entrance glass door.
So, I hardwired 1 wire strap from Alarm O to Alarm I and by closing the circuit it is recording following this logic: PIR ->> Alarm Out A->1 ->> wire -> Alarm In A<-1 ->> Notify Surveillance Center ->> QNap SS ->> Alarm Input1 = Closed ->> Start Recording Channels 1&2.
On the QNAP SS, on the Event management -> Cube camera -> Traditional Mode -> Start recording when the camera's alarm input 1 is Closed.
I am writing here as I haven't managed to find it explained on any other forum this setup.

Cheers!

Thanks for sharing, that will be useful to someone.

I'm using an Advantech Adam 6050 device with QVR Pro. It allows you to use multiple I/O channels, such as external PIR or whatever you want. Just be careful with the HW revision, it needs to be a CE or D version, AE or BE will not work.
