http://www.axis.com/products/cam_companion_software/index.htm?utm_source=acc&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=IndexBanners Nothing in my tri state area. Bummer. Does anyone have a reputable online reseller that has the kit in video?

Is there anywhere a consumer can get the Axis system in the demo video?

The thought about the IR light emitting from other items such as heaters, and say sunlight during the day. How does that compare to the IR emitting from a camera? If my baby stares at a heater for to long will that have an ill effect? Or if he stares at a covered window that has day light creeping around it, will that harm him?

I am an amateur/ hobbyist when it comes to CCTV type stuff and haven't ventured past consumer grade Security cameras and DVR's. I came across a delco Spectra DD53C22 and it doesn't look anything like I have ever fooled with. obviously its professional grade stuff. My question is , is there anyway to test/ use it without the backbox? I hate to spend the money on a backbox and turns out the camera is bad. Thanks for the help, Jet

Great info and thanks a lot. I believe I to will adopt the CAT 5e standard as its the most versatile. I only do my own stuff and most every friend or family that sees my setup and wants it in their home. I am on my 4th install and it only appears to be growing. Is there any advantage to CAT6 with the addition of the shield? Do you have a good source for Baluns? I see them most places however quality looks questionable.

I see in some install jobs I come behind that a lot of installers using 22/4 Solid with Beanies for power and standard RG6 for video. Are these just alarm installers doing crossover work or does it really make a difference?

You could also try your hand at one of these first. It will cut the clutter if it works. It worked on mine. http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10429&cs_id=1042904

Thanks for the reply. Few thoughts 1.In your situation do you have issues with other signals bleeding into your channel 3/4 from the modulated source? If so, what are thoughts on correcting this? I have seen the channel master digital channel assigner, which lets you assign a channel out of range, but its expensive. 2.How much is the signal degraded over the RG6 vs the Rg59? 3. How does this affect affect cable internet? Will the injected signal impede internet perfomance? Thanks Jetfxr

" title="Applause" /> Awesome, you set the light bulb off. Don't know why but my mind was stuck on the BNC as sending an RF signal because of the coax. Mind Block, LOL. I should have known because the cheap camera I have now hooked up to the Kitchen TV requires a modulator because it only has an rf connection. To distribute around the house, should I stick with composite or convert via modulators to RF? Thanks again.

I too have the same system and did the same thing. I had a 15" LCD monitor and selected a resolution out of range. For me I hooked it up to my 1080P TV via VGA. From there I got in a selected the native resolution of the other monitor which was 1024/768. Hope this helps.

Update: I found a TV That shows "some" signal. Its a rolling and tearing type image, however it diplays something. I have a little of the other threads regarding isolators. I may try one if I can get my handson one.

Hello, I have had a cheap $30 camera from Harbor freight hooked to my Kitchen TV for over a year now so the wife can keep an eye on the little ones in the back yard. Well they are getting older and are venturing around the yard a little more. The wife wanted more cameras. Since its just to take a quick look to make sure they are playing like good boys and girls, I didn't want to brake the bank. We also have another little one on the way and she wanted a camera in the nursery to keep an eye on sleeping baby. I purchased an all in one CCTV kit from newegg.com. It's an elcheapo system however I figured it should be sufficient for what I am doing. To be exact: KGuard CA108-H02 4 Camera+8 Channel DVR with Remote Web / Mobile Phone Access My idea was to purchase and use the VGA at the dvr, and then go BNC to F type, and go to all the TV's in the house. That way every tv in the house can display video from the cameras independently or all at once. It came with 4 and can expand to 8. I bought BNC to screw type f connector, made my cables. Unfortunately I cant get a signal to my TV's. I looked at a buddy of mines system that was proffesionally installed, and his dvr goes BNC, to a T and from the T it goes to 2 tv's that are f connectors. What am I doing wrong. I have tried rg6 and rg59. No go on any tv. I double checked that I selected NTSC and it was set. Even tried Pal just in case the DVR programming was wonky. Is this even possible? Are my video out feeds fried? I am in my 30 day window and if this system will not do what I assumed it would do I need to send it back. I guess the question is can I go from a BNC out from a DVR via quad shield RG6 to an f connector to a regular NTSC TV? Thanks for the time. Jetfxr27
