hello everyone.. need help looking very stupid at the job
tomcctv replied to naiefelyemeni's topic in General Digital Discussion
Your first problem is how you have wired up your system Your biggest problem at the moment is how you have connected your baluns ..... Pair for video + and pair for - ..... This need to be changed before anything else .... You should ONLY use 1 pair IE blue for video + blue white - Rest of pairs look at ak post This needs doing to see if you do have problems -

tomcctv replied to naiefelyemeni's topic in General Digital Discussion
You need baluns at both ends ..... If you don't understand baluns then start another post to talk about them -

Dahua NVR4416-16P Audio Recording
tomcctv replied to rubsmong's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Hi for what your application is for I would not use mic built into a ptz .... Remember if your moving the ptz the sound from the motor will drowned out any sounds you wish to record I would run a cat5 direct to a standalone mic and I would also run separate speakers ........ This will also take away problems you might have with playing sound. -

The second photo was taken from here - http://topcctvcameras.co.uk/sannce-cctv-review/ It looks like the same (or very similar) system for a similar price, so maybe the image has been incorrectly sourced? First not a uk image in fact none are on that website Then there is the problem of website being new so don't take any notice of reviews Then look at website again .... NO CONTACT INFO QUICK UK company check and they don't exist ..... Big mistake if you buy from them
-
Hi your system from Amazon is analog .... It should have a better image than your photo but not by much Your second photo is not your system so your not going to get images like that

Hi if your camera is analog then don't use a coupler with baluns Use the Neutech surgestion

What's the best surveillance solution for a restaurant?
tomcctv replied to BensonD's topic in Security Cameras
Did I say cash is 7fps Why should people PAY for playback ?? Why would they regulate 4 to 8mp ..... Stupid thing to say And it is not a matter of paying more ...... It's buying a system fit for its purpose ........ But again another post taken into nonsense -
What's the best surveillance solution for a restaurant?
tomcctv replied to BensonD's topic in Security Cameras
Security is not about luxuries .... It's about capture in other words fit for purpose. 3mp IP cameras are now low in cost .... We have just had our October price list from dahua and a 3mp camera is £34 (around $53) so your statement on luxury is rubbish. You keep on that op needs 30 fps ..... Are you talking FRAMES fps OR FIELDS fps .......30 fields ps is 15 frames ps ....... Also fields ps and images (ips) are worked out the same But why do you insist on saying IP can't do 30fps as analog IT CAN BUT AS ALREADY STATED ...15fps is good for any application..... 7 to 15 is good and saves HD space So now we have the luxury part sorted out for the op it is still needed to know the ops location ..... In the UK in a bar or restaurant there are regulations on image quality .... Some areas need 7fps some like cash area - entry exit need 12 to 15fps and the image has to be fit for purpose (CLEAR IMAGES) -

What's the best surveillance solution for a restaurant?
tomcctv replied to BensonD's topic in Security Cameras
Hi. It depends were you are in the world ........ Restaurants in some countries have regulations . Also take into account very visible cameras inside a restaurant can take away some of your trade so small is best And please if budget allows which is not as much as others say over analog go with IP -

System on the way! Hik 2332/nvr
tomcctv replied to wnix's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
This post has too much wrong information for the OP TO DESIDE ON ANYTHING . SUNNYKIM Why on earth are you saying 30fps. It is not needed at all 12 to 15fps is good ...... 2 - 3 and 5 MP cameras have been around a long time now Your problem is you don't know what fps mean and that's where you are making your mistake -
how do you value the potential of mobile surveillance
tomcctv replied to vinci1235's topic in General Digital Discussion
Have you been in a coma for a while -
You have the option in menu to overwrite or manual rest ...... Problem with manually reset is the recorder will stop recording till you reset. Your HDD WILL show full on overwrite because it does oldest file off to make way for new files ........this also tells you how many days your HDD will hold footage before it starts to delete the oldest It is normal
