I have had to factory reset my Dahua Cam after I lost power at the house this last week..(Storms)
Is this because I do not have a SD card installed on the cam ?
If Not why am I lose'n my settings ?
Have to Factory Reset after power loss
Re: Have to Factory Reset after power loss
I don't have actual Dahua branded cameras but I do have Dahua 'made' cameras and running similar firmware. Odd that you experienced that. I don't have SD cards in any of my cameras and, while we haven't had storms (does a power surge come into play at all????) I have cut the power to my cameras and they come back up just fine.
Are you using PoE or power adapter? I don't think that makes any difference but just curious. Are there any firmware updates available?

Re: Have to Factory Reset after power loss
That is not normal. I don't have a SD card in my Dahua cam, and it remembers settings after the power has been cycled.
Do you have another cam to test ? I suspect your first cam is faulty.

UPDATE **
Well, My adapter setting was off on my BI machine. not sure if I was out of Range of just had 1 of those weird IP setting that your are not supposed to use.
any way I changed the last 2 Digits ( .xx ) on my network/BI5 adapter and all is working.
