    Help with a system

    Yes I could but the problem is there cameras are made in China you are looking in the wrong direction..... it does not matter we’re the equipment is made it is which company is honest on data collection some systems like cheap smart systems from eBay or amazon are cheap in purchase like this example ptz camera from amazon ..... to your door $30 it can’t be made for $30 but it is and it’s shipped from China to US then out from distributors to customers do the math ....ptz camera. shipping costs. distribution cost and mail cost to customer all for $30 how do they make up there money, data collection....... first the camera auto sets up .... makes its own path in your router and connects to a China server (camera will not work without this) also known as P2P they collect emails .. contact details cookies ....most personal data on your home devices then the camera is collecting face snap shots of everyone and collecting that data known as association data.. if you haven’t been in the industry or bought cctv before ... recommended systems is the best way to go buy a system you have control over and it’s yours or a system that’s an information collection that you have paid for but has no control but if you are stuck on system names then the best in the industry is Avigilon .. Canada based
  2. Is this the 2006 DV or the 2014 does it have a cd burner forget the software you have on your pc and try this ..... take some footage from your dvr with a memory stick then try and open that on your pc .... not with the software...... just open memory stick as a drive also as far as ports .... your using local so give it port 80 on dvr and router
  3. Hi. Old but new has the same result ...... it’s software is old out of date and not compatible did you load onto your pc with admin rights enabled blank screens for each camera is also a sign of drivers not compatible for your windows 10 can you play backup footage on your pc from dvr

    Ok then power supplies need changing first did you see the link to cables I posted if that type they fail and blow any new power supply you replace this power unit is a better option than the plug type https://www.amazon.com/ARyee-Adapter-Charger-Security-Surveillance/dp/B07CYMXSTW/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=cctv+power+supply&qid=1619858605&sprefix=cctv+&sr=8-3

    QSEE QT548 - Video loss, all 8 cameras

    Hi. These are lead kits and q-see used to supply them https://images.app.goo.gl/QB6jvHtDcPy5ZDodA if you had more than 2 years out of them you have been lucky so you have two plug type power supplies with 4 way splitter on each do the power supplies get warm to touch at night can you see the red led lights on your cameras

    QSEE QT548 - Video loss, all 8 cameras

    Hi. Video loss on all channels usually points to power supply do you have individual power supplies or one that does all cameras also how are cameras wired if I remember right this unit came as a kit with a lead kit yes you can use most modern DVRs with your existing cameras but I would recommend looking for the reason your system is down first
  9. Hi you need to go back to earlier post on date change to run load software Also are you using Firefox
  10. Hi. Yes your right only 1 unit on account but that is not a problem ....... you can still add a user ( that unit is 15 users) just rescan qr code on new phone or tablet but what you will need to do is once back online is change password so as missing phone no longer has access to your system other app that works with that unit is ezviz

    Axis 3224 LV camera

    Hi. With some good silicone work it can be made water proof the problem is going to be the dome axis has indoor outdoor spec domes ... yours is indoor so not UV protection and it will turn whitish yellow and restrict your lens view

    DVR recorder for OYN-X cameras

    Hi. Are these the little turret analog. In white with 36 ir
  17. Yes they can be fiddling.... trick is to fully unscrew them and insert a small screwdriver to help push the lockdown plate up Dont leave it past weekend good job
  18. Ok that’s good we learn everyday One thing I am going to ask that you do because it’s a fire risk all of your cables are showing long conductor wire ends they should not be any wire showing from terminal block .... it won’t take you long to re do them just use a pair of scissors to cut ends shorter ..... this will stop any shorting out if any cable is pulled Give your self a pat on your back
  19. I can see 6 flex cable connectors in your old unit picture .... I can’t see the one with braid and black cable.
  20. the wire to the right which is out put that into the bottom terminal as that was connected in your old unit
  21. This wire does not show up on your old power supply ...... are you shure it’s not the mains power for your old unit
  22. Ok .... can you check if your recorder has its own power unit .... jack plug on back of dvr see if it goes to a power supply or back to your new unit
  23. With the two wires disconnected do any cameras show and how many
  24. Hi you picture shows all ok .... green light goes out if fuse has gone which fuse and was it ... was it second from bottom
  25. looking at your old unit all the twisted cables are cat5 powers more than I camera you no longer put two wires into a terminal starting from top solid orange goes into first terminal marked + orange white goes into - next block green goes into terminal + green white into terminal - next block blue goes into terminal + blue white into terminal - next block brown goes into terminal + brown white into terminal- next block you are left with normal cable so each one goes red into + black into - This will fill another 4 blocks
