camera type for Geovision GV-1480B

Recommended Posts

we have an old GV-1480B card

we have used it for years

but a couple cheap color cameras we have are freezing up and have a black bar running vertically.

 

I tried to change to a new camera, but it was worse,

 

Am I supposed to use only analog cameras?

 

I think I bought a digital HD (may TVI) cam

 

the store guy said its harder to get cams now

 

 

I just need to know if I have to just use analog cams

 

thanks

You can only use Analog Cameras with the Geovision card.

 

Sometimes sharing power supplies can cause problems. Thy giving a problem cam its own power supply.

HI

thanks

 

no each of my cams has its own power supply

 

but I am still confused

 

I see lots of cams on line that say AHD analog

 

is that ok?

 

or is there just a straight 'analog' cam?

 

thanks

Dennis

AHD analog is not the same as analog.

 

Some AHD analog Cameras have three wires, one for power, one for signal and one with a small built in switch which sometimes can be pressed to force actual analog which will work with Geovision.

 

Your best bet is to source a straight analog camera!

 

Good luck

Hi. You would only be wasting money using analog cameras.

 

You already bought a tvi camera so you know it’s not expensive for HD.

 

Using a old D1 pci card will just keep giving you problems plus the cost of running a PC vs a DVR.

 

Look for POC tvi cameras and a POC tvi DVR and then you can also do away with your power supply’s
