This client wants to install cameras around his residential building to catch who is putting trash in his side walk, He keeps on getting fines from the City. the building is 30' high and the 3 sides are 25 50 and 25 respectively the side walk is about 10'. My hardware budget is around 3K I was thinking on the following setting GV-800-8 card with custom build PC 5 WZ18 3-12mmExtreme CCTV cams Please let me know what you think. Thanks Rob.

I need to buy an ACTI ACM 4200 any sugestions on vendors? I ususally buy from Digital Watch guard but they failed me on my last order. Your help is fully apreciated. Thanks

Hi Folks, I am installing a 4 ACTI ACM 4200 system. Everything was going well until I added the second camera to the network which totally crashed it. This site has a POS system with 3 computers upstairs where the cameras are which connects to a 10/100 switch which is connected to a Gigabit switch downstairs where 3 computers are connected as well as the POS server. I was planning on getting a gigabit switch for upstairs where the cameras and the 3 computers are so the 3 computer can take advantage of the gigabit speed. Any suggestions is fully appreciated. Thanks Rob

Hi Rory thanks for the reply. I goes on and off in the PCDVR screen all day long every second. And when is on it displays distorted image like seeing thru a wet class. Those are the only 2 doing that and the cameras are in different areas of the place. I just want to tell the guy what I think it could be Because I know that is the first thing he is going to ask me. Thanks Rob.

To be honest, I haven’t got the chance to do any tests yet. This client is a big jerk and he keeps on threatening me. Anyhow I will go there tomorrow and check. I just wanted to have an idea to see what I should look for to give him a straight answer. I asked the distributer and he told me it could be a power issue. Anything else I should be looking for? Thank you very much. Rob.

I have installed 8 nuvico cams with infrared. The system worked fine for 6 months but now 2 cams are displaying images distorted and it keeps on going off and on. What should I do to diagnose this problem? Is power related, cable or camera related? The client is real jerk and I don’t want him to blame me for the issue. I can send the image if that helps. Please help thanks Rob.

Thanks CCTV_SUPLIERS it was very helpful.

thanks Scorpion, It was very helpfull. If is not too much too ask could you tell me what camerea and what monitor do you use? Thanks Rob

I am an IT consultant and I do Camera installs as a vertical business. I have a client that requested me to install 5 cameras in his store. The challenge is that he wants the cameras located on a particular area. My question is how I to calculate the field of view so I can give him ideas as to what is going to be covered. I know there are lenses Calculators but I am wondering how to the pros here use this calculation to predict field of view. Thanks Rob.
