Thanks for that, i had a quick look but seemed to be nothing available at present.

Did you tick create jpeg images, in web cam server?

Seems that it neds a pelco external housing tc, $$$$$$ Next plan of attack is to try and mount it in an external ip 66 rated light fitting. Anyone tried this with success (or not)

Been trying to work out using two monitors from a Geo pc,set the graphics card up for 2 monitors, went into gv system and used the dmpos exe. to configure it also. Worked but quality of second monitor was poor. What im after is to put this pc in a loft and run a cable to a lcd monitor which is connected to my main pc.It has lots of inputs spare dvi , s-video phono etc even rgb. The loft pc can be used as a single monitor as it will be controlled by a geo ir remote using a cat5 usb extender, so im looking for the cheapest (or best) way to extend it about 70 feet away from the monitor. If using the s-video only out of the graphic card through a s-vid to phono adapter give me good screen quality or is it best to run a vga that distance

No-one

16 channel audio in and out

What do you mean "might"

Pci express is the latest and bestest Most new pc's now come with these, no reason why they wont work but not needed for any boards to date.

Why not stick a wireless camera in the car , tune it in to a vcr or dvr. If all they want is to see is whose snooping around the car

Nice to hear you have it up and running. Fps for the X50v is 8 as it tells you in the screen when you are connected to the Geo.

What do you want to control ? for the love of gawd.....................

working now Address had to be changed from 12 to 11 in geo. Strange as its set at 12 at the cam and set at 12 at the dvr. Any way thanks for the help

Scott, the osd is supported as it was working on the stand alone. I have connected the rs convertor to the pc,s rs232 port(small like vga) I am trying to configure it but its not working. Does the gv net card connect to this port. To be honest i cant find in device manager which port im connected to

Cheers Scott. In ptz setup my camera is not listed , can i add a default one? after listing ptz device it goes on to ptz setup, i know the address is 12 and the baud is 2400 and the protocol is d. These settings are not taken affect until the cam is iniciated. Ive linked the 232/485 convertor into com1, well theres only one com port. I tell a lie theres two. The smaller port vga size is that normally com 2 ?

Just a quick question to the Geo experts, will this connect to a geo pc using the 232/485 convertor i have, or will i need to add a gv net card

Indeed bud. Now to daisy chain it to Geo

Looks and smells of Ebay, but this time a happy end. Dip switches were marked wrong on manual, received new settings and it works a treat.

Fitted 2 sata 300gig hd's on a gv-1000 and the nightime activity of spiders is really munching away on the storage. I have a couple of (well5) cams with ir in and the little b------s love them! Iknow the rule of thumb is not to use ir cams and go for seperate ir but these cams are really to notch. Is there a successful method to treat the cams to keep them off?i mentioned earlier i have used a feater duster taped to a 16 foot 2x1 but this only keeps them at bay for 24 hours. This problem will soon get worse as the dark nights set in,any tips

Rory, GV650, 750, 800, 900, 1000 cards, if installed onto motherboards with VIA chipsets, will generate unstable clocking. These models use the "Hint" chip set for PCI bus control, and this Intel Hint chip set conflicts with VIA chip set. Therefore, please avoid using motherboards with VIA chipsets. Intel chipsets, SIS, and lots of other brand names are good. GV250 or GV600 do not have HINT chip sets, therefore, they are OK with VIA chip set mother boards. Hope this helps

Well the dome i have doesn't match the manual as far as the dip switches go so i guess im stuck...................

Well the protocol and the camera id match , so if can get the dipswitch issue sorted i could be business Rory dont tell me i have p----d $440 down the drain-------?

This dvr http://www.rfconcepts.co.uk/7223%20MANUAL.pdf This is ptz http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=48636&item=5784077533&rd=1 and this is the converter i used on the firdt dvr http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=60839&item=5782912653&rd=1 The dome has a vista motor/housing and seems good quality. The cam gives a great pq ,dont move tho Dont know if i caused any damage sending 12v dc down the rs convertor as the housing is 24 vac, even tho thats what it has marked on. Please

Dip switches are nos 1-12, in the manual it mentions dips 1-8 and 1-6....? 1-8 are for cam id 1-4 are for protocol and 5-6 for baud rate. I wish i had checked before i fitted as its a long walk 16 foot up a ladder then back down then back up into the loft The dips on the dome dont match what the manual say's so im a bit stuck WTF next

Thanks VST, tried with 12v and without, no go. I am trying it on a second stand alone which has a 485 port. i have set it up as pelcop d (this is supported in dvr menu) the dvr doesn't have baud rate settings , but the dome is factory default at 2400. Also the camera is id1 by default settings,so i have changed camera id in dvr to suit. If the dvr has no baud rate settings do i have to play with them at the dome?
