    Dome Cleaning

    thanks for the reply, you steered me in the right direction, i ended up going to Pelcos site, and found the following: EXTERIOR SURFACE Clean the dome’s exterior surface with a nonabrasive cleaning cloth and agent that is safe for acrylic plastic. Either liquid or spray cleaner/wax suitable for fine furniture is acceptable. then i went to amazon and found this cleaner, looks to be right on the money: http://www.amazon.com/Novus-Plastic-Polish-Oz/dp/B000FGLRC4/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hg_13 thanks again

    Dome Cleaning

    just checking to see what you guys use to clean your outdoor domes, when the glass,( i know its not glass ), gets dirty.. i have read that the cloth should be one of those micro-fibre type, but the cleaning solution is what i am curious about, i have read nothing that has alcohol in it... mainly looking for a brand and maybe a link... thanks

    lens - DC and ESC

    i am gonna resurrect this post, i have been having the same problems with my cnb vcm-24vfs, the image that i get during the day, looks very detailed, BUT, the items in the image has a blooming effect, not very detailed... i have tried very hard to correct this issue, i stumbled upon the same settings as the original poster did, i set it to DC, and lowered setting below default, sure enough the pictured looked light years better, but the next morning the cameras wouldn't switch back to color, which was very disappointing... i have even considered hiring someone to come and setup the cameras, i refocused several times, that didn't help, so i know its not that, its the settings of the camera.. can the camera be left in ESC, will that provide a better image, more detail? any input would be greatly appreciated...

    CNB VCB-34VF Blurry

    thanks Soundy, I am gonna have to check that tomorrow, normally when i focus, i install a welders filter , that allows me to focus during bright light, but when i installed this camera, i didn't focus it, as it looked good, as is... tomorrow i will refocus it and see if that helps.. my only problem is my old bastard eyes, but i am gonna try and get it the best i can...

    CNB VCB-34VF Blurry

    i just installed a CNB VCB-34VF and i notice at night, as cars pass by in front of the camera, the images of the cars is blurry, i am thinking that it is caused by the WDR feature of the camera... my CNB VCM-24VFs don't do this, has anyone else noticed this with their WDR cameras...

    Hidden camera's from a 2nd floor flat.

    just looking at the two guys who are trying to climb the wall, they weren't looking to rob you, they thought it was the USA/mexican border fence....

    Does this look normal? (PICTURES)

    it looks good to me, what make camera is that? and let your neighbors look, if they don't like it, they can tell you, where-as you can tell them to mind their own f'ing business.... i have 9 outdoor cams, including my new corner mounted ptz, hitting 270 degrees of view, its nice to see what goes on around your home and also document it, just in case... but i do agree, you should relocate your ptz to a corner, just pick up a corner outdoor mount...

    Staying in B/W mode

    well i was playing around with the settings of my CNB VCM-24VF cameras, cause i just wasn't happy with the look of the picture, i set the settings as follows: DC: Level 3 AGC: Level 3 SBLC: Low DNR: Low Sharpness: 5 This morning i noticed that the cameras, would not go out of B/W Night Mode, now after i made the about changes to the settings, the picture was great, maybe slightly soft, but otherwise clear, now i am confronted with this B/W problem... would anyone know, based on the settings mentioned above, the rest of the settings on the camera is stock btw, what could of caused this B/W condition, and what would maybe correct this problem... thanks...

    difference between protocols

    thanks Sean, let me ask you, from my dvr, the qvis apollo, and using a mouse, how would i pull up the osd from my ptz, if you know...
  13. i just received my PTZ camera today, and i see it works with many different protocols, i was curious, is one protocol better then another, and also i notice that there are different Baud rates, within each protocol, is the higher rate better, then the lower rate....
  14. sounds like you are using the wrong camera, buy a outdoor camera of quality and you won't have that problem, you have to get a camera that is up to IP66 standards...
  15. well, i am with Soundy on this, i myself have never had a problem with CNBs switching over to b/w, and i have installed 8 around my home...in fact, you can set sensitivity to when it switches... as far as your alarm, being a waste, i don't know what system you have, but we have ADT, and have never had a problem, the one time that we had a fire alarm go off in our home, when we weren't home, after calling us to make sure it wasn't a mistake, ADT immediately contacted the police , and they were at our home in less then 3 minutes...you get what you pay for...
