newbie electro mechanical engineer commercial laundry owner

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am an Electro mechanical engineer with electrical qualifications including city and guilds and electronics, I am employed and I own a Dry Cleaners & Launderette, also renovating a house.

 

I am having a nightmare with my Avtech AVC 708H 16 channel DVR

 

1. time/date keeps on defaulting back to Sat 01 Jan 2000

2. default manufacturer time/date is the year 2014

3. back up battery is not faulty, reading 3.2v (did replace), was ok anyway

4. Ethernet lead disconnected, makes no difference

5. firmware update makes no difference

 

strange thing is on the calendar if you click on 'today' it then corrects the date, but not the time, I have tried a different address for the daily update on the time, obviously with the Ethernet lead connected, it seems to fail on the log, I have tried turning it off, the 'Auto-sync', but it makes no difference.

 

If I reset the date/time in the morning to the correct date/time/year, it all starts going wrong after about 7 pm, I keep on resetting and then 10 minutes later it is wrong again. It wasn't a cheap DVR Unit, it is only about 3-4 years old, hence the default manufacturer date is 2014
