    are you using the same power supply to run all the cameras?

    Video distortion

    sounds like bad cabling between camera and dvr id recommend changing the cables to something more higher quality pre made cables are not the best

    Please help me pick the best choice:

  4. i use our security cameras for what they are designed for orignally SECURITY if something goes on while im away from home then itll record it other than that the cameras are only left to their recording fucntion from a security point of view. Occassionally the cameras have caught some wildlife like badgers, birds and such like in the garden or on the drive but that wasnt the intention to start with that was just luck.
  5. Firstly What voutage are you running along side the cables for camera video Secondly have you installed a big enough power supply to Cope with the runs and are these two cameras a long way from the power supply
  6. Advice from me would change your provider and tell them why your leaving
  7. domt know if this is any use the pdf file download for camera ptz http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCcQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sacgroup.co.uk%2Fmanuals%2F905.823.pdf&ei=XmaUVZ-TCoPiU6bzsvAO&usg=AFQjCNFz_BrHIrQ_qyiMzlywH0RQBJY7GQ&sig2=5Ymsryk5PGIm3KcHNgwbsw&bvm=bv.96952980,d.d24
  8. ive got domes pts types from a trusted chinese supplier and found the couple of compnaies that i deal with to be superb.
  9. Check the router log instead of Dvr and look at your Dvr port in the router log it should show a date the Dvr was accessed through the port
  10. no problem. youll have possibly 110/120 volts instead of 230 then as your the us and im uk.

    CCTV stuck

    i would have a look at the power supply as that message appears to be saying that there isnt enough supply to it.
  12. try this disconnect the joystick then disconnect motor cable from ptz camera motor and reposition the head then reconnect and repower the camera see if that resets it back to normal. remember to turn the power to camer off while cable disconnected dont do it live as depending on voltage could be 24vac or dc or even 230-240 v ac on cable.where abouts are you based in uk.

    Boosting Power

    Thank you for the help. Where can I find a 5amp power supply with a variable adjustable voltage of 12-20v? Through searching I was able to find a power supply that had 12-13.8 volts, but I couldn't find anything that was 12-20v. it appears to be honest that your out your depth if i was you id leave the cctv installations to the professionals in the future./

    Voltage Drop

    approx 250 meters dc carrying would be a big cable required to get the volt drop out. it would be wise to power cameras locally if possible so id say additional 2 power supplies reuquired
