    Controller for DVR

    they are not used (only with the CMS software is when they are used most) they are not cheap i know Sean would be able to get you one or we can send one to sean, part number is QVIS (DVR-APO-ASS-001) but there is an easier way of setting up what you need. how far is your dvr from monitor ???

    DVR problem

    sounds like for some reason your DVR has gone from ntsc to pal (or pal to ntsc) you should see some settings in your DVR menu to put it right. what make is your dvr and were are you located

    Any advise on low cost ip cameras?

    Hi with that res i would just use some CNB VBM 24VF. for 640 x 480 and the switch and power for a IP so low in res analog will be cheaper for you.

    please dont buy from ebay. if you have that sort of money to spend you want at least a warranty and support. the units you have listed, samsung ....... its out of your region you need to be PAL and not NTSC avtech (swann) is very low budget ...... type avtech into search above and i think you will change your mind. the other listed are no name units. and over priced. look at dahua .... and you will be ok.
  13.

    $60 cam out performing $200 cam? Pic

    rarther than paying more money to the company (another $68) i would send the camera back. if it was a controller that went inline then ok. but its not you will only use it once and thats it. 2 options. 1, send camera back or 2, ask them to loan you a controller (if not returned in 14 days they can invoice you for it) but i would not spend anymore money (you have already paid for a camera you cant set-up)

    Controller for DVR

    Hi. it looks like you have the dauha DVR from kings. so you can only use the controller from dahua. (we have used the aver pro controller in the past) with the dahua you have two options network or RS 232 direct into the back of the dvr but it only has a short distance of 15m ...... you can extend this to a few 100 but you will need to go rs232 to rs485 are you only using 1 dvr ??? if you do only have 1 i can send you the pin out for the rs232 on the dahua to connect to a network controller (without using the network) rs232 to rs485

    Controller for DVR

    am confused as well now. your first post. what is it you are looking at doing. do you have PTZ cameras or are you just looking at controlling each dvr at 1 location.
