Camera Calculator V3 Need Help? Ask Here
We are making this a 'sticky' at the top of the discussions to help anyone using the Camera Calculator. This is for the new V3 calculator (feature overview here) and replaces the old discussion thread for the V2 calculator that had 170+ comments.
Just ask your question in the comments.
Related, here is our tutorial video for the Calculator below:
Again, need help, have a suggestion, just ask in the comments.
Good day, i cannot connect on camera Calculator. i am logged in but it says server not found ?
Werner, sorry about that. It should be up now or in the next few minutes. We had a DNS issue, which we resolved and the corrected information is now propagating across DNS servers worldwide.
Hi ,
we cannot connect to the IPVM tool .
Link is offline (DNS)
Sorry for the issue, we are actively looking at this. DNS is working in some regions, but not others. We will update you here.
The DNS issue should be resolved, we have verified by proxy and through manual VPN connection testing from US West Coast, London, Montreal, Sydney, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong , Dubai, Belgium, Switzerland, and Norway.
If anyone continues to have issues please reach out to support@ipvm.com
There is an error in the IPVM listing for the Interlogix TVF-310x series cameras where they are listed as 180 degree cameras rather than 360. This is reflected on the map with the wrong FOV. I had to put in an Axis 360 on the map to get the correct fov but that means the camera model listed in the exported report is wrong now.
Hi There,
I am plotting a new project on Camera Calculator V3 but cannot see any blind spot calculation for the Hikvision DS2CD6924FIS 180° camera? The statement onscreen is 'HFoV must be lower than 180 to enable blindspot preview' - is this a camera issue or a software issue? Could really do with this information wrt blind spot at 'x'm mounting height? In advance many thanks.
Best regards,
Andy
Andy,
This due to the combination of that camera's specifications and how the Calculator works. With that camera's 86.7 degree Vertical Field of View, unless the camera is specifically pointed with an uptilt, there would be no blind spot.
However, it is still an issue with how we model those types of cameras. We are updating multi-imager support and will take a look at how we can improve these types of cameras.
Good day John,
On the camera calculator is there a way to get a BOQ on the projects a person created?
Werner, by BOQ, do you mean Bill of quantity / line item? If so, we have a CSV export that does that, e.g., for this 4-camera sample project I created, here is what the CSV export looks like:
It is a CSV file so you then can of course edit / copy / delete / customize it, as you please.
Does that help?
How do I reorder cameras? I have 8 cameras and when I went to export it changed the order and put camera #7 as the first camera and camera #8 in third spot.
The zoom level appears to not allow us to get close enough to prints when imported. Here is an example. This is as close to the print as I can get.
Thats because the resolution on the overhead image is too low. At the bottom left of the screen switch from satellite to blank. When its blank you only see the drawing, but you can get close up. When you have added in your cameras you can pull back and flip the satellite button again.
Hi People, Iam new in IPVM, Iam doing some tests using the calculator and the projects that I´ve created are becoming without name and cameras. Any idea?
Hi There, any chance of making the zoom in/out more graduated? I.e. x2, x3, x4 etc.? Whilst it's a great feature, you can end up too close or too far away with just a single click of the '+' or'-'. Many thanks.
The GeoVision FER5701 only has 180° option. Can you add the 360° similar to the FER5700?
Thanks
Hi all,
Couple of questions, both probably asked before but here goes:
1. Is there a way to remove all IPVM branding for integration into our own reports? This would be during export.
With Photoshop, Acrobat and Word I can do what I want but it takes time.
2. Is it on the roadmap to allow the use of a custom image in the Simulated Person section? I would like to do some vehicle mockups in particular.
Thanks!
I just pulled up this thread with a similar question. I'd love to remove the IPVM logo from the PowerPoint export.
I am unable to see the floor plan using any of the supported formats.
It looks as though even here I can't successfully load .PNG images to show the issue.
Hi Chase,
Would you be able to send me your project permalink and the png image to my email at adam@ipvm.com I will take a look.
