I ordered the night owl doorbell to add to my night owl IP camera NVR system. The setup was super fast and easy. It integrates with the existing setup and Night Owl Protect app with no issues. However, the video doorbell was recording to my iPhone and not the NVR. I had added the doorbell as a new device at the same place in the protect app where the NVR was added. One I realized it wasn’t part of the NVR system, I removed the doorbell from the protect app, reset the doorbell to factory settings and did the setup again, but added the doorbell from within the NVR device screen. Videos were now recording to the NVR with full NVR settings available for all camera devices which included the doorbell. My only issue so far is with the audio recording. I can’t make out any audible voices on the recordings. The sounds are very very faint. This could be better. Also, the doorbell didn’t ship with any hard copy paper manuals. I like to have paper manuals as well in case I am not near a computer or phone.
I started setting up Nightowl stand alone security cameras at my rental property last year. I have been very pleased with the picture clarity and easy installation. It makes my tenants feel more secure having cameras watching over their parking areas. I would definitely recommend Nightowl cameras.
Added two cameras to system with four that has been working great for a year. Took five minutes to add the new cameras and has been working fine for the last week. Recommend this series for reliability and ease of setup.
