Getting a dome cam shortly (spares/repair, may or may not work....) No info on it other than the pic and the following text Just wondering if anyone recognises what dome it is, so I can do some research before it arrives. I guess when it arrives I should be able to take a closer look and find out more about it. Hope it works, or is a easy fix, never had a dome before.

Hi, welcome to the forum. Do you know the model no of the dome? What is not working? Is it just control, or video and control?

Without any other info, it sounds to me like loose connection, as you say when you moved the cable the video came back on briefly.

Tip for searching on ebay, I usually tick 'uk only' (tick whatever country choice you are in, ie usa only if in USA) to avoid the millions of cheap junk foreign cams and accessories. Then in the search you can put any terms you wish to exclude after the search with a minus sign before them, for example cctv camera -lead -psu -adapter -etc to remove leads, psu's, adapters etc from the search results.

What country is this in? I find it hard to stomach that the hospital knows so little about its own equipment they dont even know the model, or the basics of how it operates?

Can you not get power from the lamp post?

Are you saying the police could not view the footage, or the police tried to brighten the image up but could not, or they managed to brighten the image, but it sill showed nothing useful?

Not come across that one before, perhaps its a custom job? What is it controlling?

EzCCTV do a distribution box for geovision to replace the pigtails, never used one, like the idea of it, but no idea how much they cost... Product here.

Welcome to the forum, fellow Englander.

I managed to pick up one of these extreme cameras, they are used in some of the extreme cctv products, does any have a manual for it? I have looked all over, plenty of spec sheets, and adverts but not one sign of a manual. It is controllable by rs232, but I have no idea what protocol..... Its working, but would love a read of the manual to fully be able to take advantage of all the features...

Welcome to the forum, yes it certainly is sunny in England for a change.. They reckon it will get warmer over the weekend too... Time to get the fans out!

Welcome to the forum.

Was the car itself not alarmed?

Perhaps BBV (building block video) may know more, as they specialise in telemetry controllers for this sort of thing.

Cant seem to find anything on it, according to that page it could be a dennard 661 - but hard to tell for sure. Usually, the wires control the motors directly, sometimes they have additional wires for feedback. Perhaps someone else is familiar with that model who will be around later. If you can open it up you should be able to see what wires go to which motor... Usually with these style the telemetry controller just send the voltage direct to whichever pair of wires controls the motor it wants to move....

its on this page That says 24v, but some of the uk style ptz are 24 and some are 240... I am still trying to find more info.

I will see if I can find any info for you, give me a few minutes.

Does it look like this?

Welcome to the forum, did you find a solution?

View the original footage, what that happens to the time and the number, see if anything is amiss. Perhaps the number is showing each individual frame number, 25fps for pal or 30fps (frames per second for NTSC, as the are interlaced, ie made up of two pictures per frame, the number could be going up 50 or 60 each second... Without knowing what the other number is, or what its actually doing in the footage, its hard to know for sure. Best to just view the original footage, and that should shed light on the matter.

Have you tried the default passwords? They are on page 84 of this manual. If your lucky the passwords will still be at default settings.

Welcome to the forums.

Welcome to the forum, Im another one from the UK..

I would ask for a refund and send it back, reminding him he said it would work with IR.... The camera will, as said earlier in the thread, have a IR cut filter, which is blocking the IR, the other camera does not have a IR cut filter by the sounds of things.
