    PTZ 500

    Come on, I need help. Normally should a camera tilt operate from 0º to 90º unless it is preset?

    PTZ 500

    Marvincctv: where can I find a "switch"? Just to recap, I can push camera to "0" which is a Hard Stop.. Then If I turn camera 10 degrees and then turn back it will stop just short of the Hard Stop. If I turn 40 degrees and turn back it stops further from the Hard Stop and If I turn the full 90 degrees it will be further away still from Hard Stop.

    Tried what Shockwave suggested, it turns by hand past "0" then when I operate the controller so long as I do not go past approx. "70" it will return to past "0" which is the correct position. But if I go to "80" or "90" it will only return to about "10". Hope you can follow that.

    Made a bit of a hash of that last post. It should have read :" Also I have installed the camera at a height of 10 meters and when I turn the tilt to Horizontal as far as it will go (0˚ I assume) and then zoom x 10 it looks at the ground 30 meters away from where the camera is positioned". I took the camera back to the shop and they dismantled it and we saw that the camera does not go to 0˚Horizontal although you can move it by hand to 0˚ but when you use the controller it is back the same problem. He assured me that this is normal and to put it higher up which I can't do. Any ideas?

    PTZ at 50 meters.

    Thanks for that. Yes I think I would have trouble over that distance so back to the drawing board.

    I think it was the forerunner of this : http://www.cctv-centre.co.uk/cctv/colourptzcctvcamera.htm

    Yes, as far as I know it's a 5" 10x zoom. The supplier I got it from doesn't do that model any more so difficult to know.
  8. Would a DVR with 12v. output be strong enough to power a PTZ camera at 50 meters?

    PTZ 500

    Need help with PTZ 500 camera. Pan is 360˚ continuous and tilt is 90˚ Flip. What is 90˚ Flip? Also I have installed the camera at a height of 10 meters and when I turn the tilt as far as it will go (45˚ I assume) and then zoom x 10 it looks at the ground 30 meters away from where the camera is positioned. See attachment. Something wrong surely.

    I have had a Sentient H.264 for about 6 months and cannot get it to work properly. I have 3 cameras attached (2 came with it). By playback, when it detects movement the screen goes blank for up to a minute at times. Sometimes I have all three screens blank. Are my settings wrong or is it a fault? Thanks Sean.

    Loop, thanks, that's a good site. Unfortunately I'm still struggling as I don't have much free time, but will persevere. Another point: the screen seems to go blank when it detects motion. Is this normal? Sean.

    Got mine from Maplin about 3 months ago and have had no success with it. Cameras working Ok but cannot see files when recorded to USB stick or connected to computer, never mind the internet. Maplin were no help and CnM sent me a codec that did not help. Have a Mac but use a Windows XP partition but still nothing. Could someone post a walkthrough before I go mad? Thanks.
