where are you based, have you tried connecting a working camera to the video cable at your ptz end to see if an image appears on the screen

QFA " title="Applause" /> to numbnuts three cheers for the best comment so far

mmmm sounds like you havent port forwarded in the main router on your internet, what router make have you got. and do you have access to the router login via a network cable?

afaia http port should be 80 not 8080

ive just installed dome cameras ir type and speed dome ir type cameras,

Looks like a mennu control to be honest

Hi where in UK are you

if my system was registered i wouldnt allow connection from the police directly only the ability to know theres cameras in our area if somethin goes on.

i think this is a very good idea. if the police need a copy of footage from my system a crime number has to be given to me which ill record in my log book, when the police come for the footage the log book is filled in the copied disc is sealed with a serial number and that in turn is logged in book and the officer signs to say which police station it has gone to. When the disc is returned if im told its no longer required ill snap the disc in front of the police so they can see the information is detsroyed and the disc is signed back in as destroyed if nfa

was in a coffee shop today and this cctv camera is installed directly above a chip and pin unit where the card reader and keypad is used by the paying customrt, the camera is a pelco ptz camera which is remotely controlled by security and was watching directly on the chip and pin area what is peoples thoughts about this is this legal and right that a person watching the camera can watch what number someone punches in. im a cctv installer by trade and think imho this is wrong.

id say ups is a must for dvrs mainly so that your dvr runs on a smoother supply and gives you a chance to shut down the machine in the case of a powercut

that doesnt have infrared built in its sensitive to external infrared illuminators.

can you upload a screen shot of the black spot area so we can see what to do about it

hi there netviewer isnt compatible with windows 64bit its only able to run on win 7 32bit

the cameras look very well installed by a proffessional installer.

Dedicated Micros 9 channel ds2a cd writer built in with kbs3 keyboard have removed passwords from menu and am looking for £200 for both can either deliver if fairly local to burntwood staffs or can be collected but no delivery. unit in working order very good condition removed working due to upgrade offers welcome

you need to make the above dvr 192.168.1.5 for example

just for your info to all who may need it, on my dedicated micros dvr i had to open up all the following ports for mine to work outside the internet area 80000 80 23 21 1025 5201 2074 2075 8234 so you will need to find out depending which dvr you have which extra ports requiring opening

it could be a power supply not supplying enough current to the machine either try a new power unit or

i reckon its a dome camera housing without the dome cover or camera

what area is this any chance of a post code so members can see it on google. obvously a road name that isnt your road for example.

id suggest you purchased a ir speed dome as this type of camera gives complete protection by being able to be remotley set to an area but also it will be able to make out a person at that distance the flexibility would out way a static at that distance imhpo (in my honest professional opinion)

id say its called a monitor
