I would like to know the diameter of the camera body because I plan to point it through a hole in a wall of my garage. What size hole is required? |
2023-04-06 |
Cameras I have are 62mm diameter and the body is approx 105mm at the longest point. The model is a 510a |

Diy installation: i get the theory of poe. for a synology-its nas > a 'poe switch' > cat 5 > rlc-510? the 'poe switch' is also connected to my router? |
2022-04-24 |
Yes connect router/hub that your ISP gives to the switch, then switch to camera. Standard BT , Sky routers etc don't allow for POE |

Whats the min power watt for this, do I read this right and it needs less that 8w ? |
2022-11-22 |
Correct, I am running off PoE, Max recorded was 17W, probably on startup of the camera, currently consuming 0.2W |

2022-11-22 |
The <8W power consumption stated relates to when you are using a 12V DC power source for the camera.
If used over POE (Power Over Ethernet)) the voltage is 48V so the current consumption should be less but taking very much the came power ie 8Watts or less. |

Quick and easy one to answer and that is no.
The camera connects via cable that provides power and also sends the data out to your router and that in turn sends the picture/ data stream to your phone or PC. |

Does the camera cycle record to the sd card or does it wipe the sd card when full? |
2023-05-01 |
The cameras I have only overwrite the older footage when the card is full. There is always about 5 days worth on the camera that overlooks the drive way and about 7days worth on the camera inside the porch that is trained on the front door. I have 128GB cards fitted to our cameras. So yes they do overwrite the old stuff but only after a few days. Hope this helps. |

Hi, I used to operate this cam with an SD card but it was very inconsistent with its playback and I could never view it remotely consistently. If you kept recording it would record over every 96 hours depending on size of memory card used. As a result I purchased Reolink HDD to record in and no have no problems what so ever with either recording or play back either remotely or on my tv. |

Hi, when setting it up I had the choice of constant record or motion detect. If you have it on constant record it will fill up the sd card quicker. I use a Samsung 256gb micro card so I get a few days to check it before it's written over with motion detect. I belive with constant recording you would get approx 8 hours or on a 512gb card you would get approx 16.5 hours |

2023-02-16 |
Unfortunately, the answer is, it depends.
I would guess that it has about a 30 degree sweep left to right whereby tge image is still mostly horizontal. Due to the design of the bracket, IIRC, any more than that requires rotating the camera / image. |

You can turn the wall bracket so the camera goes left, or right. Or like I have done, I put one camera on a bracket at the side if my house to get the angle I need. Another camera I made a wedge behind the wall bracket to tilt it. There are a lot of cheap ways to get what you want. |

I guess the answer is enough! a) you can mount the base any way you want and b) you lock it in place anyway. If you want more left or right position the base to allow maximum movement in the desired direction |
Rob McPherson |

2023-02-16 |
The general movement is small about 5-10 degrees but there is a slot in the mounting which allows the camera to be turned 90 degrees. You have to take care to mount the camera so the slot in the fixed part of the mounting is in the right |

No subscription required but I assume you mean to record captured video to a cloud storage system and if that’s what you mean it will be yes you do need a sub, assuming they do one.
Mine sits on my local network and records to a local network recorder and in turn can be viewed without a subscription.I think you can put a mini SD card in the camera to record to that but I’ve never use it because if someone nicks your camera you video of the thief goes with it.
You can down load an app for your phone for viewing away from home and works OK with my iPhone but the app for viewing locally on your PC is a bit clunky but works once you get your head around it.

"Hi, the bitrate affects video quality and recording file size. In general, the higher the bitrate, the better the image and audio quality and the larger the file size.
Here is the relationship between SD card capacity, bitrate, and recording time:
1. By 128GB SD card, with a bitrate of 2048 kbps, this camera can record for 145.6 hours; with a bitrate of 5120 kbps, this camera can record for 58.3 hours; with a bit rate of 8192 kbps, this camera can record for 36.4 hours.
2. By 64GB SD card, with a bitrate of 2048 kbps, this camera can record for 72.8 hours; with a bitrate of 5120 kbps, this camera can record for 29.1 hours; with a bit rate of 8192 kbps, this camera can record for 18.2 hours.

Does the motion detection zone work with vehicle/person detection? I read it didn’t when they were released, but don’t know if fw has fixed now, thx. |

Hello. Yes, if you set up the vehicle/person detection, then the detection zones that you create are for the vehicle/ person. |

Mine does.
It saves loads of time looking for something. |
