Do you think I should go to an eight channel and up the number of cameras instead of the PTZ? I figured the three non ptz's would cover the area's they are messing around with, and the PTZ I could set on the 4th access to the property when were not home. When were home and they are running their 4 wheeler and snowmobiles I would be able to pan and zoom on them to get them tresspassing and tearing up the yard. I know little about surveilance and I expect to have some trial and error in the process, I hope I can reduce some painful monetary mistakes by using the expertice on this forum. Thanks for the input SecurityMonster

Hello I am planning on installing a CCTV system on my home, we have had some trouble with neighborhood kids messing around with our property so I would like to be able to identify them in the recorded video. Here is what I have come up with for a system and I would appreciate your experienced comments on this before I make the purchase. DVR - Nuvico NVDV3-4000 3 x Sanyo Pan Focus Day/Night VDC-DP7584SH (temps to -20F) 1 x Sanyo PTZ VDC-DP9584SH 500' Siamese cable w/95% copper BNC connectors B-tron AC8-2-2 24VAC power panel Existing 19" VGA monitor Am I missing any parts that I need to make this work? I believe I will still need to add cable and connectors for the RS-485 control for the cameras but I am not possitive. The specs on the camera board say Coaxial control board, I dont know for sure if that means I do not need another cable to each camera or if the siamese only will control them. The 3 cameras will need a range of about 30' max The PTZ will be for looking at different areas depending on what their up to. Thanks in advance for any advise you can offer.
