I have two computar 6-60mm (T10Z0612AMS-CS) tv zoom 1:1.2. when i connect them to a camera they both have a dark picture in the evening and white out during the day. I've tryed different camera's but it is the same. I also have a Computar 8-80mm tv zoom when connected to the same camera has a good picture plenty of light???

tHANKS FOR THAT INFO.

thanks, I'll stay away from the cat 3

I found a spool of cat 3 cable: Telecom 1000' Plenum cat 3 6 pairs. Is there any difference other than the quanity of pairs? Thanks,

2 out of 6 pictures rock back and fourth. More at the top of the picture. It's like something is rocking the camera but its not. Any thoughts on correcting? Thanks,

Ya, The configure icon thing worked. Thanks!!

1. I've heard pepole refer to terminating and always thought it ment connecting the wires say at a control box power disconnect ect. What does terminate mean. 2. I've heard pepole talking about loss at a connection. Is there a way to decreese this loss. 3. If I ran say 100' of cat-5. I used 2 pairs and conneced two camera's. I have 4 pair plan to connect to future camera's and one pair just exta for what if. Should I connect these wires to boxes with some type of plug receptical ect. or just wait and soilder the wire together. Or is there a better way to connect Cat-5. Also ways to reconnect or splise a Cat-5 back together? Thanks, Gunrunner1

the 150 was supposed to be 150 foot from house to guarge. Reasons for using cat 5. 1. Allready have 3/4 of a spool. 2. the underground pipe I allready have is no large enough for rg-59 simese and my control cables. But should be large enough if I go with cat 5 cable. O.k. Thanks alot

I no very little to nothing about baluns or cat 5 use. I'm running the cables 150 ft. to my gaurage I will get power there? I have a pan tilt unit that needs 9 wires. Zoom lens: (zoom in zoom out, focus in focus out, power on of.) This should be 6 wires? I'll be using 6 24vac camera's This should be 12 wires. 6 camera should need 12 baluns? If I figure right I will need 27 wires? If cat 5 has 4 wires ea. I will need 7 runs. Is this right???? Thanks,

If I use Cat 5 cables with Baluns. For camera, til/pan unit, zoom lense. This will be attached to my garage 150' away from my DVR. Should I use Baluns that carry the 24vac. and runit from my house or Baluns that don't carry voltage and power them from my garage? (has a seperate AC power connection from power company. I'm tring to figure out the best way to do this. I haven't bought the rg cable and I'm running Cat 5 for the tilt/pan controls. So it will probaly be best to go Cat 5 on everything? Thanks,

Thanks very much!!

what about running Cat5? I don't know how to do it but I'm hereing others talk about it . Can someone explain to me how its done? Baluns is that something you attach to each end? Do they have bnc conector on them? Which one are good ones? Thanks,

Can someone tell me how to use cat5 . connection's and so? I looked at some Baluns that looks like the way to go .Which baluns should I buy? Thanks,

I DON"T UNDERSTAND I'm still new to using GEO Vison
