  1. A ban? what do you mean, Uk is trying to ban Swann? wth why?
  2. this is my first outdoor cctv, so swann seemed good idea. What you were saying about the power....today Im using 5amp supply, much cooler and the ghosting on camera one has gone clear! so yep you were right , the power supply from Swann starts off ok then over time becomes weakened. what do you mean, rebadged from what company? OK so if you have.....for example.....£600 to spend on NVR and 4 cameras what would you get? The cat5e is already in place so I could get anyone up the ladder to change current cameras when needed tbh.
  3. yes seems to be correct its says on the menu Swann DVR8-4780 hardware version DM-307 2tb PAL I got the new 5a psu Im using that now, Il check at night to see if the slight ghosting of image has been ressolved Any more issue with this Il just change it all to POE 4k unit, but its all working now
  4. yes all the cameras are 3mp but nothing in the ptz works but the menu is the one I have posted
  5. Yes changed the camera, nothing else atm ..new psu coming tm
  6. Just an update just in case anyone reads this in the future/now It was an issue with the camera, which is odd as it is installed where its dry , but lasted 3.5 years, on 24/7 though.... BUT there is some ghosting with the PSU supplied ( not on this picture below those line are as Im taking a photo from the TV) 12v 2amp so @tomcctv was correct as it was very hot.... this may have made it fail tbf I dont know so this is whats on the way tm https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01G9YS4NU/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They say if you have a high power supply, the cctv will ONLY take what it needs. Leave me wondering why the ( swear word ) do Swann supply this psu?
  7. I set the password and thats working so I can get to all the menus but on the PTZ icon, its just shows what I posted in the picture earlier. So I click on the camera, the ptc icon comes up I press that and nothing adjusts
  8. appreciate all your help basically my 4 cameras are swann PRO-3MPMSB I cannot get that menu from these.... is this how its meant to be?
  9. Nottingham I checked the power supply, its 12v 2amp and has no fuse and is hot I have grainy cam plugged in with no splitter, so directly from the plug and same thing ,it starts clear night vision then after few minutes, goes to grainy. Its in socket cam 2 but ive moved it around to different inputs on dvr, same issue. the dvr cam menu has limited options...
  10. Yes , 3 wires into one and 2 into the other, they are solid screwed in and taped.. This grainy camera is the closest to the DVR, about 10m cable max.... I will get the new power supply and try it out,, 100% But I meant .. with the 2amp supply, when I plug one of the four splitters into the grainy cam and disconnect other 3 cameras its still grainy...doesnt this mean grainy cam is getting 2amp if all other cams are disconnected on the splitter?
  11. Hello...what about this..... Plugged the grainy cam into one 2 amp plug and its still grainy...doesnt that mean its not the psu? I cant get to the camera but the connections are same as to the dvr.
  12. Oh ok...when you say costco what does that mean? budget items? I dont know much so .....no problem....What shall I try then....a new PSU? If so 5amp you think as I will buy it today and use the same 4 way splitter? this one? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263407983337?hash=item3d5456dae9:g:mEUAAOSwZltb-5f5 also I unplugged 3 cameras and left the 1 grainy camera plugged into the splitter with the 2amp supply and it was still grainy...?is this the good method to test it?
