i seem to be having a lot of trouble scaling, ive clearly drawn the drawing wrong. can you help? www.purehighways.co.uk/work/Mastermap.dwg

shame, ok thanks

I did do some google searching, but one that looked ok they wanted you to sign up and all the ones where you didn't have to sign up looked crap. didn't know if you might have a car shown in a caring space or something I could nick? do you use autotrack?

is that a no on the vehicle drawings? ;)

gladman........... OMG - the worst of the worst. ive spent many hours at Essex looking at master plans and just listing all the things I don't like ;-) planning agents love a big list of design changes! so you deal with big and small stuff? got a 2d cad drawing of a car, refuge vehicle and...

um don't know them off the top of my head

ive only been here 3 months, was at Essex county council for 14 years doing the same thing. company?

and it was a very useful post, thanks

ah ok cool, well I'm on the other side. I work for Cambridgeshire county council assessing the highway impact of planning applications. we so assess layouts of everything on the highway network. but on the side I am now offering highways advice in Essex, so access arrangements.

I mainly use cad for drawing parts so use mm. but just started doing OS plan stuff so really should be doing that in metres. what do you master plan?

I only use two paper sizes A3 and A4 I have a feeling my cad might be setup as mm, but I can faff around and see what scale works best.

didn't know that, that would be very helpful. something else I need to learn. the main scales I need to use will be like 1:100, 1:200 and 1:500

its more about what scales people have on their scale rulers ;-) I love it when I used to receive plans in random scales like 1:75, you wont find 1:75 on a scale ruler still not had the chance to play with scaling yet, hopefully tonight. thanks for the info

fair enough, I don't need any lessons on drawing etc its more finishing. so scaling, template etc...

All my drawings I do at 1:1 scale. But yes I want to create a3/4 paper and add a viewport and then scale the drawing to say 1:200 or 1:100 etc... I've closed down my laptop now, but I need to learn how it works. I'm fully self taught on CAD, never had a lesson so there's a few things I don't...

measurement of foot way on site and on os match so its good enough.

are these the best setting to use for scaling?

I am angry to find this helpful guide on the Belkin forum, turns out I had the ethernet cabld in the wrong port http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=8179

I've already ran a cable from hh5 into my garage and currently I've got a hh4 in there as a WiFi access point. But it's really s**t and doesn't work very well. So I got the Belkin

I just purchased a brand new Belkin ac1000 wireless router to use in my garage, but am not getting any internet. in the house is the BT HH5, and the ac1000 is plugged into one of the ports on the back. but just says no internet connection. why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

most you can adjust the sensitivity though, so that may help. its one of those things ill have to have a play with and see what works and what doesn't.

I'm not sure a 19" rack format would fit in my wardrobe which is where my current pc is. I don't think its wide enough, ill have to check. but I hear what your saying about temp change. I'm assuming these nvr work with any ip cameras not just hikvision ones?

I note there are many on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hikvision-4-Channel-Ultra-HD-4K-UHD-Network-NVR-8MP-4-PoE-4CH-CCTV-Recorder-NEW-/272435318386?hash=item3f6e690e72:g:eY8AAOSwImpXpZQz I was hoping to set up motion detect for a set area and just get notifications for that set area . Via...

Looks good and cheaper than a laptop. What do you need to setup alerts? Anything special? My current wiring is two ip cameras plugged into a router, which then plugs into a computer. I'm guessing that won't work with nvr ? It will want each camera plugged in separately?

So if you wanted to extract high quality footage, how would you?

Another thought, you said you review etc on mobile devices. What sort of quality output do you get on mobile devices? 1080p for HD viewing? Should you ever need to do something with the footage like give it to the police you want the best quality going.

It's a crappy old monitor but I have the one from the current setup so can just use that. OK thanks, I will look into stand alone DVR units as that didn't enter my mind

None, other than generally keeping an eye on my house. My current setup is old and I would like to update it So before making any form of purchase I just want to dot all the I's cross all the t's

So how is it connected, via WiFi or ethernet? I'm assuming the stand alone DVR units only need Internet when sending alarms as you say. I've not looked into the stand alone DVR units, but I'm assuming you just plug a monitor in and you need to get one with a decent output. Hdmi or something

No, it's just how I've always done it. What worries me is anything like this which is dependant on the Internet will slow things down.
