Problem solved. I put all new ends on every connection to triple check and that fixed it. Always the little things. Thanks for all your responses and help.

The cameras were tested with the ac power pack before installation and worked as they should. The PSU was not tested, and I do not have a monitor to test with.

I have reconnected the connections and now I get a picture looking dark with just a white outline of objects. http://www.computercatalysts.net/capture3.jpg I have yet to be able to test the power voltage at the end of the camera. I do know that the adaptors used where not as heavy of cable as the power cable running back to the PSU. I'll attempt to keep all who have helped and are interested informed.

Sample jpgs http://www.computercatalysts.net/capture.jpg http://www.computercatalysts.net/capture2.jpg PSU is not hot. Or at least warm enough to feel without touching it I am thinking a power problem. In a test run before installation the power pack was used to test each camera for working. That checked out. When hooked to the PSU I noticed this problem. The install site is located about one hour from me and I will be traveling there this week to run some more tests. I will keep you all posted if I find something out. Thanks for the suggestions and help.

I have recently setup a system and I am having issues with the video quality. I recently setup 5 cameras in my area at one location. On all five cameras I get a bad signal. The pictures are not a crisp picture and have areas where the colors look to be bleeding into each other. If anybody would like to take a look at a sample to better understand my problem you can access it at: http://www.computercatalysts.net/test.avi I have unhooked all cameras and plugged in one at a time and I get the same results. The shortest cable run is 30ft and the longest is 220ft. The cable type is RG59 siamese. The computer/dvr and power source are located in a trailer house closet with the closest object being a hot water heater.
