I need to hook up an outdoor security camera system but one that is also wireless. I would need to view it on my ipad as I am going away on vacation so something that doesnt need recharging would be the best

Hello
Here is a DVR that will work perfectly for you.

Most DVR's and cameras don't have the ability to view from your i-phone, and you cant just download generic software all DVR's and cameras uses different encryption , software, and compression so you cant use another companies software to view another manufactures DVR.
You want a DVR that has an app specifically designed to work with it like the one I am suggesting below.
What you want is a DVR a DVR converts analog cameras and as well as storing images on site allows you to distribute video over LAN and WAN networks. (internet and network) this way you have both on site storage and recording at your house.
A good Analog DVR will do what you are looking for and not only display them but record them as well they will also allow you to view them over the internet from a Iphone or laptop.
X4S Remote Accessibility
View all your cameras instantly and remotely, and configure the DVR through internet using eitherbusiness in real time from anywhere in the world. MAC or PC platforms (smart phones too). This allows you to manage your
Many people have a misconception that IP has Superior scalability then Analog but with the advancements with DVR's this simply isn't true, you cn do up to 16,000 cameras each camera could even be from a different DVR and a different site.
And when you are using the internet to connect multiple sites together analog transmits over the internet faster with less latency using less bandwidth allowing you not only to view and monitor a situation real time but also effective control PTZ cameras.
What is the Advantage of IP?
Many of the so called advantages of IP simply don't hold water in the real world, IP is mainly Hype and marketing and outside of a few niche applications such as 1 or 2 camera installs, where MP cameras are needed or large scale wireless projects which represent about 2% of the total CCTV market, IP has very few advantages compared to analog based on performance, cost and reliability. (yet all companies touting IP will often use MP cameras to demonstrate the advantages of IP)
IP video is more about marketing then it is about performance as larger companies like Bosch pelco Honeywell axis can change for both hardware and software and once you use there cameras you have to keep using there cameras unlike analog.
Also IP sounds great, plug and play, Better image quality, use existing infrastructure, who wouldnât want that unfortunately this is often not the case.
IP cameras are based on CMOS
Analog cameras are based on CCD (usually)
A CMOS sensor is constructed using a array of pixels, but unlike CCDâs CMOS do not have a capacitor to store the charge for each pixel.The rows of pixels are activated sequentially rather then individually
In short unless you have perfect lighting a good CCD camera will outperform an equivalent CMOS camera.
File Size:
The smaller the files size the more images that are able to be sent and the faster they can be processed improving both FPS and speed. File size is the heart of any DVR and goes far beyond just its streaming capabilities as it also determines the recoding storage time, how much you can back up at once, how fast it renders and searches video.
IP cameras have up to a 5X larger file size then analog cameras. (at same resolution) I have seen MP cameras that on 2MP resolution are over 300X (%3000) larger then our X3 DVR on a CIF image. This is an extreme case but generally speaking IP cameras have a much larger file size.
Most routers and switches are not designed to handle IP cameras they have enough bandwidth but they are not able to process the amounts of commands. (9 IP cameras 30FP is 230 instructions per second) standard routers have enough bandwidth (up to 1GB) but cant handle the amount of tasks (instructions) so frames get dropped latency is introduced and the effectiveness of other devices such as POS, printers and dats storage can be affected and compromised.
Donât get me wrong there are some brutal analog cameras and DVR out there but If you see a good D1 resolution image such as Ascendents Hardware compressed you will not be so quick to join the IP bandwagon.
IP is a young and emerging technology and I have no doubt that in the future it will outperform analog cameras but its not a mature technology yet. Once we start to get standard IP platforms, get rid of license feesâ and existing networks have larger bandwidths then IP video will be a good solution, but until then analog is the way to go.
Make sure you get good cameras as well, Ascendent has the best IR outdoor cameras on the market and are about %50 less then Bosch while offering triple the distance.

Connecting security camera to phone?
Kaycee
Okay so we just got security cameras for our house and we want to be able to see the screen on my iPhone. Okay that was the short part. Here is the other stuff:
the cameras are hooked to a zmodo dvr with 8 channels but we only use 4.
I have tried about 4 different camera apps on the iPhone each with no success
it is connected to a computer monitor (just the monitor, not a working computer) with a VGA wire
I followed the internet cord and it seems to be connected properly into our internet router which is a westell but that's all I know about the internet box.
OK SO if i missed any important info then let me know but we are really struggling to get the camera to work with the iPhone. One of my problems is that I don't really know what i'm supposed to put when it says "address" or "port" or anything like that.
If you help me and it works i'll be soooooo happy! Thanks ahead if you help me out!
Answer
You would need to determine which iPhone application the manufacturer of your DVR requires, and install it on the phone. Make sure that your phone is currently connected to the same router that the DVR is on via WIFI. You would need to contact the manufacturer of your DVR to find out which port you would need to use, as well as other relevant DVR information that the app requires. When it asks for address, what it means is the IP address of the DVR (typically looks like 192.168.1.1) which will need to be found on your DVR, as well as the port number which will also be found on your DVR.
If everything is set up properly, it should be able to connect at this point. If not, check to make sure that your app is configured with the correct DVR information and that the iPhone is connected to the WIFI network. If you know that your phone has the correct app installed and that you have your DVR information entered in correctly (per instruction by the manufacturer), the issue may reside with the physical network (cables, routers ect) or network configuration settings on the DVR itself.
