Installed 11 HD-SDI Full Hd Ip68 cameras at a site a couple of weeks ago.Cameras are made by Eyemax.Sold by Unixcctv.They are 12v cameras.Installed 16 channel power supply and not sure of brand but also sold by Unixcctv and 12 volt non fused.The dvr is a DVST-PRO-HS-S6100 HD-SDI full Hd 16 channel dvr made by Prime. Cable used was RG59 split combo made by Telpix. 95% copper.
The problem I am having is a few cameras ,when the IR kicks on at dusk, I start to get video loss logged by the dvr.If you look at the monitor it is just black.It happens all night till dawn when the IR's kick off.I have replaced the problem cameras with new ones and still same problem.I tested the voltage at the camera end and get 12.04v with camera disconnected.With camera connected I get 11.43v. With the IR active my voltage drops to 10.04v
I have never had any problems with cameras or dvrs or power supplies until we started installing HD-SDI full HD cameras.Now its constant call backs and as we know...call backs equal lost time and money.Have called tech support and they where lost.We seem to know more than they do.So now I am here hoping a long time installer or anyone can help me figuer this out.Any and all thoughts and comments are welcome.If the equipment I am using is crap,dont hold back and let me know.
Not sure if it is power related or cabling or what as only 3 of the cameras are losing video when the IR kicks on.Thanks in advance.
