Your help will is greatly apprieciated! Are any brands better than other not... looking for junk

I have not been on here in awhile and need help with a camera hook up. If anybody could help me with this I would really appreciate it. I have experience with regular cameras; however this one is different to me then the usual ones. I have a Vision camera "Super Night Vision" is printed on the housing. The camera model # is VN7011EH-VFAL 12. The camera has a 2.8 -12mm, Varifocal DC Iris. It also says NTSC on the label. No instructions were with the camera. The warning sticker states "warning input voltage 12 DC /24V AC Dual power available. Cable Connection! dc/ac non-polarity. Lead wire, Red= power, Black= ground, Video=Yellow. There is one black wire coming out of the back of the camera. The wire then splits into two, one wire has a green and blue wire (blue -) (green +). The other wire has a connector with four pins. I have the choice of putting a single yellow video BNC connector on it or I have the option of connecting a yellow video BNC connector with a black wire that splits from it, with a green termination block with two small screws. I have never hooked up a dual power camera before nor have I heard of VISION cameras How do I hook this camera up, and what power supply do you suggest? I do not want to fry the camera!! Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Are the eclipse dome cameras decent or should I go else where

I have a customer who has a DVR. There is no name on the DVR. It is a four channel with a removeable HD. While I was there I fixed a couple of the BNC connecter,they were loose,but working. I rehooked the cameras and the four cameras worked for a minuet. Then the DVR showed all four cameras as video loss and there was no pictures. I have tried everything and cant get the video back. If I hook up yhe cameras to a monitor they all work. anybody know why the DVR would do this?

I am getting it replaced a new one is being sent out. Trying to figure it out would have caused me to go into therapy. Thanks for the help!

Yes, I did try the single camera. Still did not work. I can play back previous recorded video prior to this problem and that works fine.

How do you think the DSP could have got fried?

I have repowered a couple of times and still nothing. The DVR brand is an ARM 4 channel. I rechecked all the cameras and they all work. When I reconnect them to the dvr I get nothing. All the screens say video loss. I have set everything back to default and re did eveything and still nothing. If I play back previous recorded video it is there.

I have a four channel Dedicated Micros Digital 4e older version DVR. I have 4 cameras connecteted to it with a Altronix 12volt DC power supply. One of my cameras stopped working, says camera failed. No matter what I do the camera will work for a short time then fail. I have used a seperate power supply,and numerous other cameras. All do the same. I have had four cameras connected to this DVR for over a year. If I hook up the same camera seperately it works (not to DVR). I have also replaced the cable and connectors. is it the DVR or what? Any advise on this would be greatly appreciated.

I tried switching channels, however the camera still failed. The other cameras work in that channel.

Anyone have experience with wireless covert cameras? I need to do an install in a one bedroom apartment.

Monster, I sent you a PM

I have 3 or 4 of the older type speed domes if anyone is interested. trade or sell.

Very Sorry, I totally forgot. I will let you know Thursday.

How big and noticable is the memocam? How does the client watch it, is it video or picture? Howard, can you PM me with a price? The client has a one bedroom apartment. She suspects an apartment employee entering her apt. when she is gone and going through her stuff. The camera needs to be undetectable.

I am an investigator for a large retail chain. Most of our stores use them. Just like any DVR there all are alittle different. We have not had many problems with them......except one that would keep crashing.

I would have to look.

I have had one for several years and had no problem, I also installed a couple with no problems for residential use.

I may be out of line, but has anyone used VisionCam-RX cameras? I noticed an ad for them in a publication and became curious. I have not heard of them before. Did they go by another name? If this question is one that should not be asked on the fourm, I appoligize!

I have 13 cameras at home and there all differt brands, some box some bullet and some small board type cameras.

Is it not amazing at what we will use at home, but not at the clients home or business.

Thanks. I just got the other one real cheap and I use it for some of my home camers. All my other cameras at home are 24v and I use Altronix for them.

I have that exact 12v box pictuered above in my house and have not had any problems. I was also wondering about the fuses and did not relize they reset. Are they better,worrse or the same as the replaceable fuses? In the future should I just stick with the boxes you can replace the fuses with? On my installs I always use the Atronix.

The ads in the magizine seem to be towards dealers and installers.They are also claiming to have a DVR with the capibility of recording for years among other things.
