Hello everybody!
I've been an AV installer for years, but this is my first camera project.
I opted to go with TVI and Siamese. Here are my components...
4 Domes - KT&C KEZ-C2DR28V12IRN - 12/24V
4 Bullets w/ 160' IR's - KT&C KEZ-C2BR12XIR - 12/24V
Hunt 32 Channel 8TB DVR
WattBox 18 Output Rack Mount Power Supply - 12VDC - 20A - PTC Fuses
Issue number 1:
One of the domes is not giving any picture, even when hooking the camera straight to the monitor port. I decided that I'd try a 2nd camera and still having the same issue. I can hear a clicking inside, almost sounds like a shutter opening and closing, but that's it. I'm getting 16.3VDC at the pigtail and when hooked up I'm getting the same onto the board in the camera. Admittedly I haven't checked the voltage on any of the other cameras but I have tried different outputs on the power supply.
Issue number 2:
On 2 of the 4 bullet cameras they seem to be turning themself off over night, I can only assume this has something to do with the IR's kicking on at night, because I can reset them the next day and they work great, next morning they will be off again.
I realize these are total newby problems, but I'm desperately trying to get this job wrapped up and learn from my mistakes.
Any help at all would be appreciated!
