I'm new to cctv, I've done mostly a/v work......I have 5 ptz camera'a (mace outdoor)and one arm electronics ptz controller....
When I tested the units at home it work fine....Once i tested in the field the camera keeping resetting itself(when i use the joystick on the ptz)
the longest run is about 1250 feet...
belden 18-2 for the power
cat5e for the picture and 485
set at pelco d 2400 on the camera and keyboard......
Any thoughts?
Maybe the cat5e got damaged during the pull?
the wire awg should be plenty to carry the 24 volts?
How long can I go with the cat5e transmission?
Should I change it to pelco p 9600? what would that do?
Open to all suggestions
