  1. ME There is no mention in my instruction sheet of POE. They are 12v per instruction sheet
  2. and the recording capability. I had a surge protector inline,but it didnt prevent the surge that killed the IP cameras and dvd. Is there a surge protector that is more reliable? Assuming that is what occured
  3. You have not said what your problem is If you are worried about the red light ... That could just be something as simple as setting your motion or alarm ... As the power cut could of reset it. But you also say cameras don't display ...... So you rebooted ..... What you have not said after that is if your cameras came back on or not ..... You just went back to your red light problem. =================================== Oh Ok recording and cameras no longer work.
  4. can anyone recommend me to a forum where I can get this issue rolling along? I know absolutely nothing about home security,other than what I learned from setting it up with the instructions and few misc googling. Thanx
  5. I have a home 8/cam security system that has worked well 24/7 for 6 months until there was a power failure in the neighborhood last wed. heres the situation: The power outage went out 1 mile from my home and came back on a couple hours later. The dvr then appeard to be working as the green power light came back on and the red recording light did too. It was flashing as it should to indicate it was recording.(but wasnt since not found with a search) The monitor came back on,but each camera view only said something on the order of "loss of power" INITIALIZE I unplugged the whole unit from power to re initialize the cameras and it did go through that process,but when it was finished the recording light no longer flashed as it had been and was simply just on steadily and cameras were still out. FORMAT DVR i was able to access the menu with the mouse and display it on the monitor. i went from MENU>DEVICE >HDD FORMAT,checking the 500 G box then > FORMAT HDD. While it was in the formatting mode, the red recording light on the dvr begins flashing ,but when the formatting completed, the dvr red light stopped flashing and reverts to the steady non flash mode indicating nothing was corrected with this step either. REMOVE BATTERY FROM DVR INNARDS TO RESET removed battery for 24 hr.reinstalled correctly. corrected nothing. Any explanations of what may have happened is there anything /steps suggested that may help beyond what Ive listed? Oh FYI,its a bunker hill 500GB 8 cam capacity but only 4 cams hooked up at this point Thx
