Network Rack For Structured Media Panels
Many homes built in the last ten years feature a structured media panel that acts as a termination point for the various communication cables that run throughout the house. Coaxial cables, ethernet, phone lines, etc. all route to this box. This means it's a logical location to place networking equipment like modems and switches. The problem is these panels are too narrow to fit standard 19 inch rack mount equipment. Enter the Tripp Lite Vertical SmartRack enclosure.
Equipment used in this build:
6U Rack - Tripp Lite SRWF6UMOD

12 Port Keystone Patch Panel - Leviton 47600-QPB
NOTE - This panel requires slim profile keystones due to the close hole spacing. The LINKOMM jacks listed below are what I used.

Unifi G4 Doorbell Stargazing
Переглядів 6553 роки тому
While scrubbing through the footage from my G4 Doorbell camera I noticed several objects moving through the sky. It turns out that it captured several stars and planets, which is impressive considering it's recording at 30fps so the shutter speed is quite short. Video is unmodified from the camera other than being played back at 40000x speed.

    For many types of tent loops just a large fender washer on the lag bolt would work, just put the bolt through the loop of the tent. A neoprene washer of similar OD can be used to keep the metal washer in place and as a cushion between the bolt and the ring.

    • @employee3dotcom
      @employee3dotcom 5 місяців тому

      Do you mean install it in the wall? No. First of all it mounts to the wall on the back. Second it's wider than 16" so it would not fit between the studs. 3rd it's over 6 inches deep. Most US walls are only 3.5-4" deep so it would still stick out. This is meant to be mounted to 16" on center stud walls with or without a Leviton-type structured media enclosure behind it.

    If you're using tent stakes properly, the force to pull it straight out of the ground doesn't matter. You want to angle stakes so that they're in the ground at a right angle to the direction of force. That said, robust screws can be easier to get into and out of the ground, especially if you have an impact drill-driver. Nice DIY hook idea!

      Agreed, I was looking at them in terms of them being easier to get into the ground with an impact gun, than a hammer in peg. But how they do when you hit the inevitable stone I always find with a tent peg, is the big question.

    My Family's biggest complaint was everything going off when we lost power. I installed an Altronix AL1012ULACM 12vdc 10 amp power supply. This gave me 6-10 12v supplies that would last between 2hrs to 48hrs depending on the load. I ran the antenna amp, still do. A Leviton router and WIFI router and a rf modulator for putting the HDMI camera out of the DVR onto the antenna amp. Now I have a 24port Cisco Switch so I installed a Leviton 42 inch expansion ring to accommodate everything.

    For the past year+ is was just able to SSH into the doorbell, rename "/sounds/chime.wav" to "chime.wav.old", upload my custom sound with the name "chime.wav", and restart the sounds and leds process. And it worked great. But recently that process wasn't working, I am guessing due to an update. When I did these steps today the custom sound would play briefly and then the doorbell would reboot, which sucks because I wanted to have a special Halloween doorbell. After playing around with it, I notice that they now have a "sounds_ring_button" folder in the "sounds" directory that contains "Chime.wav" (big C). Sadly this folder is read only so the same rename trick isn't possible. But I did get it to work. Like in the video I altered the sounds and leds config file, but I pointed it to a wav file that doesn't exist (i.e. ""sounds_ring_button": "../../../../../var/etc/sounds/HauntedMansionDoorbell.wav") AND then I did the usual rename "/sounds/chime.wav" and restart sounds and leds process. AND ITS WORKING! My guess is that the doorbell is pointing to the new "sounds_ring_button" folder, for the config but has a fall back to the original "sounds/chime.wav" if the file is not found. Ubiquiti if you are reading this PLEASE just make this an official process thru Unifi Protect

    I followed your great instructions. Learned a lot. But could not get it to use custom.wav. I tried different file paths. I tried changing permissions to match the others in folder. I killed processes and even rebooted doorbell. In the end I used WINSCP to rename chime.wav to chimeold.wav and then uploaded my new file as chime.wav. Works great. I now have a great Halloween sounding ring tone using a snippet of Ghost busters theme song.

    Unfortunately, it seems like this has been patched out... Messing with this config file doesn't change the sound my doorbell makes and there are references to the various wav files within /bin/ubnt_sounds_leds binary now. I don't know whether these were always there or not... Maybe you could patch the binary, and maybe you'll get lucky and you can fit a longer name in there, but if my understanding of the problem I'm running into is correct, that just sent the difficulty of this fun little tweak through the roof.
