Trying to replace time lapse vcrs with dvd recorders
tomcctv replied to md102090's topic in General Analog CCTV Discussion
Hi md. it can be done. BUT you have a problem from the start. timelaps will record for hours / days. DVR you will only get 1-2 hours if you need to store 10/15/30 days of footage its going to cost you a fortune in dvds. how many cameras and how many monitors do you have ??? -
hi. which dahua do you have ?
-
Hi. KenS. the problem you might have is you are trying to remote logon with external IP while on your home network ?? in most cases you cant do it that way. call a family friend and give them your ip.
-
Hi. standalone or hybrid (if you wish to use ip cameras) both can be connected via cat5 and both can be powered via the cat5 like has already been said going with mac you will be limited. but some hybrids and standalones dvrs will allow you to control via your mac. qvis recorders are mac compatable avrs can also be controlled via mac using apps. the question is what do you want to protect

Hi. if you go into your options and go administrator and either add new or edit existing you will then see the options you want that account to do. ............... were are you located Kingofrock
-
Hi with resetting dvr you will have reset remote setting. so you would go into dvr menu and go to accounts. at the moment admin admin will only let you have limited use. so you need to setup another account. SUPERVISOR will give you full control (this is were you need to make a new account) High/normal and guest gives limited viewing and control ill try and find a on line manual for you.
-
all avtech have admin as user name its the password that will be your problem. local you can just use admin and leave password empty but you cant control the dvr. try username >>>admin password >>> 0000

Connecting DVR to multiple televisions
tomcctv replied to Stuart's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
KVM extender is the best way to go (cat5) plus a good KVM will also give you the control if your dvr has mouse operation. -

Creating a CCTV feed on a tv station in my house
tomcctv replied to troy6363's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
hi. its a mine field using modulators (its was easy when anolog) digital is more expensive as you can see from the cost of the ones you have already. if you can get cable to each TV (or use redundent coax) then use a 4in 8 out amplifier. you will have a much better control if you run cat5 to each tv. most TVs have more than 1 AV input so AV1 you could have all your cameras. AV2 you could have 1 full screen camera i.e front door or driveway. for around $50 and cost of baluns for cat5 much better option. (unit goes at DVR end) Video Distributor and Amplifier 4in 8 out Ref: VA4-8P Compact and simple to programme, the VA4-8P allows convenient distribution of 4 video signals to 8 video outputs. The unit is fully programmable using DIP switches so that any input can be distributed to any output. -
qvis 32 is a good system. i would also look at the UTP cameras and use cat5 on everything. your main cost is power (backup supply) if you need the system 24/7 in Afghanistan. AngleSecurity. you are based in the UK. ... sorry thats the part i dont understand. are you doing the install or putting it out to a company out there.
-
can i ask why to UK standard ??? and what equipment you are thinking of using. how many cameras how big is the hospital. cat5 or 6 will be your best option is its a large install.
-
Hi. soul-mann. i would say stay away from wireless. for a 8 way you will find it cheaper to buy a standalone than build. it all depends on your budget

Samsung SSC-21C - Does anyone know how to wire up....
tomcctv replied to mrosera's topic in Security Cameras
just because your unit has samsung on it does not make it a samsung. samsung licence there name out to alot of systems this is why there systems are not the same in pin outs. if you look at your manual it does say which cameras are compatable with your system from the samsung range but on these rj11 connecter systems you can also have audio which uses the same ground. so some mods have to be done from inside the camera and not the lead kit -
Samsung SSC-21C - Does anyone know how to wire up....
tomcctv replied to mrosera's topic in Security Cameras
Hi the problem with converting these rj11 connectors. is the pin outs and getting them right. you can do it with converter leads (but even samsungs are differant for each system) and then there is the cost. you have a 320tvl camera that runs on telephone cable limited to run lenths and power. converter $35 pt then you need a power supply $14 pt so for each camera you need to spend $50 pt you can buy a 420tvl camera online for less and not have the bother -
Hi Shaun. here are some updates ..... but like most dvrs you are best calling them first. with GE you cant go backwards with firmware so you can do harm. look for your dvr down the list. SymDec 16+4 (14.6MB) - V1.60c This is the latest upgrade for the SymDec 16 plus 4 digital recording device. This zip file contains one firmware upgrade file. You need to extract this file to a PC. Once it is extracted you can then copy the flash file you need to the USB drive used to perform the flash upgrade. If you want to keep a history of flash files create a folder with the correct version name and move existing files to that folder before extracting or moving. CAUTION: Please check the firmware version currently installed on your SymDec16Plus4. This can be found in the menu under "Info", then "System". If the version shown is 1.19L, download the version 1.25 firmware file below and upgrade with this version first. Once the upgrade to version 1.25 is complete you can upgrade to the latest version. http://www.utcfssecurityproductspages.eu/videoupgrades/

hi. it depends on what you mean by shock. if it was power related you would also see your cameras jump of the wall or atleast see smoke. you may be one of these people that can feel tiny bits of static build up. you might find it has nothing to do with your dvr/BNC you are taking the static to it. look at floor covering in that area. i.e nylon carpet. or look closer to home and stop wearing nylon boxer shorts
-
with this type of connection the camera is old .... and was available in Kits. and would only work with that kit. so if you had a rj samsung system you could not use say the philips rj cameras each company had there way of rj connection some 12v some 7.5 so not compatable with each other. the systems are another thing. lots of posts on here with samsung or bosh where the camera plugs into monitor via rj plugs monitor goes and system has gone. it is old stuff with limited spec / cable runs. / and camera choice

Best DVR for security cameras. AverMedia or Digimerge?
tomcctv replied to tsc757's topic in Digital Video Recorders
if you dont have a static ip address you will find it much easier to use the aver ddns service. paste this link onto a pc you have on the same network as your dvr and just fill it in press confirm ... always keep port as 5550 http://ddns.avers.com.tw/ -
http://remote.aver.com/mobile/channel3.html which was this one. not windows based unit. avers does not make a 4 way windows hybrid. this unit has 3 x 1.3mp http://srserviceuk1.avers.com.tw:5550/mobile this is also linux hybrid EH16 both showing handyviewer above image. adding mobile to the end of the DVR/NVR only grabs a java image. which is used for just to test if you can connect to the unit. which is taken from the symbian side of the software. http://srserviceuk1.avers.com.tw:5550/mobile will just give you a jpeg image http://srserviceuk1.avers.com.tw:5550/JAVA-Viewer.html will give you refresh jpeg with ptz control (only for symbrian devices)
