Anyone knows why this port is open by my DVR??? I was able to telnet and i found out lots of info, but i don't understand the point of it....

Hi to all, i was wondering if this line that goes through my image from up to down, is a result from low power voltage or from poor image quality of the camera ??? The camera is an analogue dome Ganz zc-d4039pha 540 tv lines, and all the connections are made with a Cat5 cable. Thank you !!!

Hello, i need your help guys....i just got this dome camera and it has 2 jacks(sockets) that are not included in the manual, and i was wondering if someone can give me more info.... a)Service Jack...this is a jack to take video image in order to adjust focus(according the manual)...does it include also the OSD menu ????? i can see on the board that there is an OSD menu, because i see the menu arrows... b)''Unknown'' socket with 4pin(on side of lens board).....can someone tell me what is this for ?????what kind of cable???i couldn't find anything on Google or manual...... Thanks !!!!!

Hello, i just bought the Vivotek vs8100 video server, but i am thinking to connect it directly to my DVR (video out) instead of the camera itself... So my configuration will be : Camera connected to the DVR and from there the video server connected to the video out of the DVR. Is it possible ??will i get the image ?? Thank you..

Hello , i am planning to buy my first IP Dome Camera, not something expensive, maybe around 250euros/300$ for home use, and i would like to ask from the people who own one, a couple of questions.... -is it true that dome cameras are more light sensitive than box or bullet ? -if i install the camera on flat surface (like a table) and not at the ceiling, is the image going to be upside-down or is there way to flip it from the software ? -is there any dome camera (for home use) that can have a rotation of 360 degrees ? -is there any dome camera varifocal or with changeable lens ? Sorry for all these questions but there are so many in the market.... Finally...i am between 2 brands, Hikvision & Dahua....any recommendations ???? Many Thanks !!!!!!!!!

Many thanks !!!!!!

Correct and thanks a lot for the info.... I am not so much interested about IR light, i am after for a more light sensitive sensor..I already own an analog camera from Hikvision which is light sensitive enough to catch star light and together with the sens up function you can see a lot more..... But, i am missing the megapixel image quality....!! Does anyone know if 0.01lux is enough sensitive to gather star light?????? How about this one? http://www.vivotek.com/ip8173h/#views:view=jplist-grid-view Thanks

Can anyone help me on how i can do this.... So far i was not able to ftp my dvr or discover it in my home network...although it has an ip address.. Many thanks

Could anyone suggest any DVR that can do these things that i have mentioned above ?? Brands like Avtech or Hikvision ? Thanks.

Version Snapshot.

Thank you all for your interest, i am uploading some photos so you can see my DVR....probably is a replica from another Chinese dvr but with another Logo name... ANGA AQ-5308LH Linux. Hybrid 8 Channel. There are actually 2-3 things i am trying to achieve : a)to create a network with it so i can access the HDD from my pc remotely within my home network b)to be able to upload snapshots at motion detection to my email, and not only get an Alarm Message c)i would like to upload the live image via Http to a website

Unfortunately nothing happened i still don't get motion detection pictures..... Strange that i didn't find also in the menu the option for sending snapshots...only email alerts

I guess you are right.... I didn't install yet an HDD...i will do.... Thank you, for the info...

Just wanted to say hello as a new member to the forum !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello , my camera is a Hikvision analog , and i bought a USB to rs485 adapter in order to have access to the cameras OSD menu from my laptop.....I have installed the drivers (Prolific) the Comm Port is number 4 , baud rate at 9600 , and select Pelco D protocol.... From the adapter i connect T-/A and T-/B to the cameras D+ D- accordingly , and nothing else......the camera is set as a Pelco D , baud rate 9600.... I am using a software PTZ Controll in order to access the OSD menu , and i select RS 485/422 , Pelco D etc........... ...........but the osd menu doesn't appear on screen......I am not sure if i have done the wiring connections correct so i am attaching 2 photos and i would really appreciate your guidance into this.....it seems that there is not communication............ Thanks Nikolas.
