Is there a DVR card out there with at least 4 channels that will work in a non-Intel based G4 Macintosh? We have a G4 867mhz dual processor Mac, and would like to use it for our CCTV system. Thanks, Dave

Is it possible to connect a Samsung BW-2302 camera to a composite monitor and be able to view a picture? I tried connecting it, and all I get is static. I was given this job by my boss who came up with a box of these cameras he wants to use at different locations in his shop. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Dave

Ok I will get a BNC cable and try that. I've connected the AC power to the two terminals marked 24VAC. There are three power terminals on this camera. Two marked 24VAC connected by a line showing them as a pair and the third terminal is labeled "F.G." What is the F.G. terminal used for?

Here is where I am at. I wanted to test the cameras before I installed and wired them. I have a tube type video monitor with RCA inputs. The monitor is the kind you can connect a VCR or camcorder to with an RCA patch cord. I took a BNC to RCA adapter and connected it to the output on the camera and connected the camera to the monitor with a decent grade RCA coaxial patch cord. I also tried a standard grade non coaxial patch cord. When I turned on the monitor and the camera, all I get on the screen is gray static. The monitor works as I tried it with a VCR. I have the camera connected to a decent 24VAC power supply. I tried connecting the camera to a standard TV with RCA inputs and it didn't work there either. So the point I'm at is I don't know if the cameras are dead or what. Thanks for the help so far and if anyone can see something else to do here please let me know. Thanks, Dave
