way too far for Cat5 Is it line of site from camera to House? Use a long range wireless tranmitter at camera and reciever at house end Power as close to camera as possible If not line of site then Co-ax but you will need a inline amp midway

Thats not a hybrid nor NVR so cant run IP cams on it HDSD again wont run on it the 1080P is live view only As Tom says try another cable, piece cat5 and baluns Also you said the picture started out ok, have you cleaned the camera since installation? has it got IR on it? could be spider webs on it etc

Whats the record resolution on the DVR? watery / washed out images are normally due to poor camera or settings What is the image resolution set at?

Any LCD with VGA for PC and BNC or AV or Scart inputs will work Input selection VGA - thats computer connected Input selection AV/BNC/Scart - thats feed to Camera Samsung,Neovo,LG etc just some of the companies that make these sort of monitors

I only use vandal domes from Qvis with W5 chip non IR, VAN 2004 model, its in catalogue and they have UTP PSG are available from Alarm supplies/Enterprise and again the anti Vandal domes have UTP Also Trade CCTV do Twilight Pro Neptune with UTP

PSG have been putting UTP in their EXT domes for a couple years so have QVIS As you say trying to hide connections has always been an issue with all in one eyeballs but i havent used them in 5 years+ as i personally detest them, everyone uses the same case but its whats inside that counts

Contact Vodafone, 3, o2 etc and ask them to check the coverage at that area, pick one that works and buy a Dongle, take it up to the pens with a laptop and check what speed is like and if there is a 3G service, once you have done that and are happy then have a look at an ip camera and connect to a suitable router that can take usb dongle or if you wanted to cover 2 / 3 / 4 pens then buy a cheap 4CH DVR and hook up 4 cameras to it but no Hard Drive is needed so your using it like a web server.

You need the molex connected to power

Ok first thing is check 3G network coverage at the location and see which if any offer full 3G coverage Can you see your Farm from your house even if its miles away?is it line of sight? Have you Broadband in your house?

Do you have Broadband at your farm house? How far is farm house from Shed/Pens? Where are you located? There are solutions out there Tel but until we see where you live etc its kinda hard to provide solutions Bud

As groovy says the resolution is probably the problem Where in IRL ? I cover all over and will be around a lot next week Drop me a PM and if im in the area i'll take a look for you

Video Dist amplifier You cant split a signal from a camera like the way your trying to do without loss or interference issues e.g - http://www.ebay.com/itm/CPI-VDA-1-1-2-Video-Distribution-Amplifier-for-CCTV-/370682820801?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item564e6af8c1 if your going to do this with more than one camer you will need appropriate input / output amp

http://www.netgear.co.uk/home/products/powerline-and-coax/default.aspx Powerline Cat5 adaptors, take 2 seconds to setup No cable needed from router to DVR

Where you based Emmet? What brand monitor are you using?

If you go into the Camera/Audio selection drop down box and untick those new cameras you added does this stil happen? Have you a camera ticked thats not active?

First thing i would do is take the video feed direct from the camera into a composite input in TV so your working with direct feed Second you mention this PTZ has IR onboard and the issue appears at night? How far is the PSU located from the camera? What have you used to take a feed from PTZ to location and how far is the run? Have you measured the voltage for drop at the PTZ? To me it looks like power issue, is there a heater in the unit? Daytime is fine as no IR are active so less current

Can i ask why your putting external bullet cameras in another external housing? The IR will bounceback and your gonna have a mess of an image

Where did you power the camera from? If you ran it from where the TV is located then check what voltage is left at camera end and try powering as close to camera as possible. Have you tried a patch lead connected to the camera and test beside it?

You can buy little plugs that go into 5mm hole, theyre designed to be used for nailing into so work well with clips B&Q even sell them as far as i remember.

On the Scart socket of every TV there is a "switch" pin to turn to AV http://www.leadsdirect.co.uk/technical/scartwiring.html Thats the diagram so just a mater of hooking up to EXT PIR or a detector or using the relays on your I/O card but that would mean every movement it would switch the TV to AV

welcome Danny what part of the glorious Island are you in? What are you aiming for with SIA license?

Have had the same problems on a few business systems as you say the CC terminal polls at night and updates Spoke to BT and the CC terminal company and got nowhere on it left with clients to sort it out

Where are you located? Ebay there were 3 or 4 for sale few weeks back

Honestly those are poor cameras, go and buy a pair of replacement proper cameras If you wanted to hook them up you need to open scart and check against a scart diagram to find video signal and connect power to them as well......but really not worth doing theyre CMOS and poor quality

Welcome to Forum Rain? Its hot n sunny last week i was in Dublin working, heading that way again this week so hope its bit cooler
