I sold DVMR4 (looked different) years back and the defalt password was 1 then enter or menu. (yes just 1). I hope it works.

Have you tested the voltage on the camera end with the camera connected? If its a cable problem it may check OK with no load and only show a voltage drop when the camera is drawing power through it. Good Luck!

If this is a 12vdc camera try a larger power supply (higher current rating) and be sure its regulated.

We don't have normal idiots around here. I think your idiots are smarter than our idiots.

Jeannie was a hotty in her day. Don't mean to ruin yours but Barbara Eden turned 74 in August.

Personally I recommend stand alones, (not the cheap ones). Too many of my clients and their associates have people around the equipment resulting in a high "IF" which leads to excessive PC DVR problems and failures. Someone should develop some good software to protect PCs against "IF" and they should market it to both the CCTV and computer industry. (hopefully it would come with free updates).

Are you using a router or going directly to the computer? If you are using a router be sure to forward the port & ip address. If you are going directly into the computer be sure to use a crossover cable.

I think all is fine unless you stare at the leds for a prolonged time. I used to make IR flashlights for use with night vision, you could damage the image intensifier if you pointed the IR flashlight at it too much, especially at close range. Don't stare at the light, whether you can see it or not. This is fairly old: Infrared Light and Eye Safety: In principle there could be danger for the eye, because infrared light is not registered by the eye, and thus the pupil won't close in order to protect the retina from bright IR light sources. This is the same situation as with UV light, which will cause snow blindness eventually, but in contrast to UV light, IR light contains much less harmful energy due to its longer wavelength.

I've seen these before. The smoke detector in the picture is improperly installed, you have to remove the cardboard label before mounting or it wont work.

Did you try a ground loop isolator as scorpion suggested? Your monitor probably has a switch mode power supply and is allowing a small amount of AC to leak in.

What speed does the computer operate at? You say AMD processor, it must be pentium 3 or higher equivalent.You need XP and IE6 or higher (will not work with firefox etc.) and I think you will need at least 512 ram. These units won't work on many older computers. Also: IE go to security and allow or prompt all activX be sure your firewall and router a arent blocking connection. These have been pretty good machines and haven't had any glitches. Good luck!

My 1and1 website was down at about the same time. They said they were having problems with some of their servers. The strange thing is the 1and websites I did for my clients were all working perfectly.

If the power supply is a switching type try using a supply with a power transformer. I had a simular problem with wireless motion detectors that used the same approx frequency. It turnes out that the switching type power supply was generating some type of RFI. Good Luck!

As a general rule I try to use a power supply that is rated at least double the maximum camera draw. Don't forget cameras with IR illumination draw more current at night! In past experience if the power supply was rated at the same or close to the cameras current draw I would be out replacing power supplies within 6 months.

Use the cheap plug & play cable that looks like audio cable. Have had them running 3+ years on customers residence doors. No problems.

Seagate sv35 is very good WD has too many failures

Now I know why its so hot here.

We have fallen behind!

As per your PM here is the network manual: http://www.spyshop2000.com/1079-4ch-remote-manual.pdf Good Luck! Please post with your results...

If you like your computer don't tie anything thats not in the computer to its power supply. Use an external regulated power supply preferrably with twice or better current rating of the camera load. And a suitable fuse or other overcurrent protection device. As I always say: "Remember: All electronic devices contain smoke and if you accidentally let it out there is no way to put it back in. If you let the smoke out you will have to replace the device."

My original supplier for those machines no longer supports them they were great machines, however I think this software will work: http://www.spyshop2000.com/DVMRinstall4.exe Its an older machine, get it before its gone. Please post if this works or not.

I have sold many and use an Argus JPEG2000 in our store, (not the dual codec model), and it ha been satisfactory with the exception of the internet playback speed. I havent sold or used any of the dual codec models but believe the dual codec system has resolved that issue. The Intellicam H.264unit is a faster operating machine and can be viewed with internet explorer vs. the Argus requiring software being installed for remote viewing. PM me if you want a link to connect to an Intellicam H.264 unit or view my JPEG2000 which would require installing the viewing software.

Please don't use the "F" word! I have sold a few "neverfocus" and the customers were very satisfied. I won't sell anymore promo units like the 760 because they create unhappy marrages to customers. If equipment won't pass my personal tests, I won't sell it.

If my interpretation is correct from page 125 of the manual pin one is bottom left facing the rear of the unit. (see illustration in manual) Good luck... ( this is also posted where you asked in introductions)
