RickA 0 Posted January 15, 2008 Check BNC connections at camera and at DVR, use test monitor to see if video is present at DVR end. May need to reboot DVR to re establish connection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UMDRanger 0 Posted January 15, 2008 A trick I use to test RG-59 is place a resistor accross the shield and center pin on one connector, and meter it at the other end. You should get the proper resistance (makes double checking those twist-on BNCs a breeze). Likely a bad install on the BNC, or the cable is damaged somewhere along the 150' run. Also - Try what Rick suggested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
