the mobotix is a good camera when used in the right location. and the porch area on the ops photo is no good for a mobotix m12. it will not cover both entrances at the same time (not that close to the camera) and the lighting will also be a problem. i have used mobotix for a long time and like i say they have there place. and people say these cameras are high end cameras (only in price) there are better cameras that wipe the floor with mobotix in video quality and frame rate. 1 being the sanyo HD. SANYO VCC-HD3300P Full-HD 1080p Dual-Stream Day/Night Vandal-Resistant Varifocal, 4 Mega Pixel Dome Network Camera Focus Assist Drive - for dramatically easier installation,True Day/Night (ICR),5 Levels Picture quality,Electronic focus adjustment with focus assist and SD card backup.

Hi b.m.s. give this guy a call or email. he is also on this forum if he is not sun bathing. (scorpion) http://scorpiontheater.com/troubleshooting.aspx

i have done it in the passed by using one of these and taking it apart and soldering the resistor inside the coupling.

Hi usa ed. before you install a mobotix you will have to think on how you are going to record all 8 cameras and are they all going to be ip. it is expensive to go full ip and like rory says you can get just as much protection from standard cameras. so first start with how you are going to save the footage ???

Hi sueum. you might find you will get much better picture quality if you use a motion detect flood light. he is also some info on ir lights. http://www.rfconcepts.co.uk/IR60-100.pdf

Hi usa ed. i think that looking at your pictures you are wasting your money installing a mobotix. as good as mobotix are were you intend to install one it would be better with using axis. and also you could install 2 or 3 axis for the cost of a mobotix. looking at your picture. you have thick posts infront of were you are going to have the camera pointing and thats going to make 20-30% of your image usless. do you use a dvr or are you going to link to pc ???

i would go with the company with the best support and Avtech is 1000 times better than securematic. they is alot of support on this forum for avtech do a search for scorpion. then do a search on this site for support from securematric. they dont even give you the basic as a telephone number or address. http://www.scmatic.com/ always look for support.

AVerMedia DVR cards support IP without separate license. Number of IP cams is limited depending on card used. The 16 camera cards also allow for configuration of which cameras get placed on the monitor out feed, e.g. watch cams in grids of 4, 9, or 16 cameras, a single camera, 1 largish image and 7 small ones etc. (see below for the TV OUT set-up page of this function on a NV6240 16 camera card). This card will support up to 16 cameras in total of which up to 16 may be IP cameras without the need to pay for a separate license. NJD The spot out on Avermedia cards is ONLY for analog cams. Will not output IP cameras. Hi bpzle. 7.7 does let you pick ip on tv out i have a spot monitor showing 4 sanyo ip. and also on the new cards you have 3 vga progamable outputs (ooppps sorry you might not have these in the US yet)

Ah true, makes sense. I'll give it try and see how it goes. before you damage a good camera no it will not work. first does your camera turn B/w at night ??? then you are going to get bad picture quality in the day from feed back from your leds from the dome. as your leds will be on 24/7. then the range of your ir. the one posted is 5m ..... how high is your camera

Ditch the car and get one of these. also earn money from google.

ultraviolet takes a few years to harm cable and with hot sun light on black siamese RG59. if you are in a area with strong sunlight and good heat. why not use white or gray siamese RG59.

avermedia have replaced the good old 1304 net with the following. its the new 3004 net. will work on any mobile and the free averdigi viewer for iphone. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=252

NJD I remember Avermedia can not display IP cam on TV display Can you confirm this ? Thx avermedia does display ip on display or anyother outlet it has hdmi/vga/comp.

this will only work if all 6 tv are on the same arial to use a rf modulator. if you can get coax to each tv then you will only need a 4in 8 out splitter amp if they are not on the same arial.

the new avermedia mobile units are very good and with wifi all you need is park your car outside your home or office and down load footage from your network and i would use 300x zoom cnb box cameras. but you are going to need a monitor also so as you can see what you are recording. you might be better with a set-up like this dvr/monitor and 2 good quality cameras.

that is 15fps

Hi the system i have posted is pc

15fps is good i will pm you a demo of differant fps

Hi sheriffa. at the moment i would look at other systems than geovision till they get there act together. other problems they have is they want to charge you money for everything ip camera licence (not cheap) i would look at hybrid systems. as you already have 16 cameras and add ip cameras as and when. you can buy cards or buy a dvr/nvr. i buy already built from aver. buy the time you have bought the cards and H/D more ram sound cards vga cards it works out about the same as buying already made up (plus warranty) http://www.averusa.com/surveillance/productdetail.aspx?id=76

Hi seanhawg. the problem with going cheaper is quality having good cable is the major part of any install. $125 is on the cheap side for RG59 siamese. if you connect an expensive camera with cheap RG59 you are going to get an image quality of a cheap camera. 1st class cable 1st class connectors is something you dont buy cheap.

you have a system that is only 15fps on each camera. if you need dvd quality then you are going to have to spend mega money and go for a nvr with good ip cameras. your dvr is 30fps looking at the screen but recording is only 15fps. you are not going to get any better from it.

what you have to remember is this is a dvr recorder and not a dvd recorder. you will not be getting 30fps on your dvr. you are getting in total 120 ips. ips is not the same as fps you have to half it 15fps is your dvr

Hi rob. take a look at your subnet 255.0.0.0 means clear. you cant reach your ip with that.

Hi johny it looks like your system has no support at all even goole just takes you back to greece. no were else. you might find you are going to have another problem. when you put another drive in the unit does it all work. some units like yours has the operating system on the H/D. Γεια σου Johny μοιάζει με το σύστημά σας δεν έχει καμία υποστήριξη σε όλα, ακόμη και goole παίρνει μόλις επιστρέψει στην Ελλάδα. Δεν ήταν άλλος. μπορείτε να βρείτε θα έχετε την ευκαιρία να έχουν ένα άλλο πρόβλημα. όταν βάζετε ένα άλλο δίσκο στη μονάδα τα κάνει όλα δουλειά. ορισμένες μονάδες όπως η δική σας έχει το λειτουργικό σύστημα για το H / D.

Hi asscore. if you are thinking of using ip and standard cameras i would take a look at hybrid. the dvr listed below will do everything you ask. and the auto track ptz works well on this system and the control side from a pc for the ptz is just move your mouse and the ptz will follow. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=152
