    Sony FCB-EX

    I have got a few Sony FCB-EX cameras that someone gave me. I do not know how to hook them up to use them. All I have is the camera itself (no wires). I would love some help on this so I can add them to my carputer to look forward and behind me. I have already let the smoke out of 2 them so now its time to ask for HELP. Thanks Troy

    So what you are telling me is that these have to be used in a dome. Also that each camera has to have a different dome because they are all different by model. What about this http://www.goelectronic.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=FCB-RS&Category_Code=2+INDUSTRIAL+VIDEO

    OK thanks. So I guess these are no good to me. I guess I will put them up with the rest of my junk.
  4. I have a new CP-484. I bought a housing with blower and heater. I am wanting to get a 24vac adapter for my setup. The thing is that on the camera paper work it showes 3 wires for 24vac. It has 1+ 1- and then a ground. All the adapters I have seen are only 2 wire. Also the paper work for the camera states not to use a power adapter over 10VA. So does this mean that I will have to run 1 adapter for the camera and 1 for the housing. Thanks Troy

    Panasonic CP-484 wiring

    I called Panasonic about this. The tec told me the reason that they state no more than 10va is because the camera pulls such a small load that if you go to big it can cause a voltage spike. He said that he dont think a bigger one would damage it. I also ask about the ground. He said he cant tell me not to hook it up but dont.

    IR Illuminator floodlight

    The best way is to build your own. I built one with 284 leds and put a fog light lens over it. It does real good. You can also put the leds on a cruve so that the light spreads out more. I am getting ready to put camera back online. I use it to watch the deer in the woods. Last camers went out so I bought me a Panasonic CP-484 with a housing that has a heater and blower. You can find ir leds cheap. I got 1000 for $40. On my new set up I also built it so that the light only comes on at night. All you need to do this is a Photoresistor and relay. I also have a 12v fan in the light to keep it cool. Troy

    What about the ground cable. If I run 18/2 I still have no ground.
