Hi everyone, I just got a job to install 10 camera system on a 2 story house. All the houses I have done in the past have been single story and my question is how hard or easy is it to get runs from 2nd floor to the 1st floor? or do I leave everything high. I am in Florida and the 2 story houses here have solid concrete between 1st ans 2nd floor. I am trying not to run cables on the walls outside of house down to first floor. any ideas please. Thanks

Thanks guys, to answer Ivan.....There is no room in between concrete to run the cables. I was going to use the attic space on the second floor to get the cables to where I need them then leave them high, but I value your comment that the height might create a viewing problem. Sector, Thanks also...I think they would want the cables hidden based on the community, but I foresee a problem trying to go through the walls. Here is the address to the property you can use google maps to see it and chime in with any suggestions. 15437 Southwest 20th Street, Davie, FL Thanks again guys.

What license do I need to get to install cctv. I have a customer that is opening an office and he wanted me to install cameras, but he said the inspector told him that the person installing has to certified with the state?

I am in South Florida.

Thanks Scorpion, I couldn't find what I am looking for. A lot of the links here are dead, but I appreciate the effort.

Hi everyone, I have a camera system setup at home. I am running it on a dedicated computer and monitor. I want to be able to get a video out that I can run up to my attic and be able to see it on any tv in the house. How can I achieve that? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi everyone, I am looking for a Nuvico dome camera (outdoor/Day/Night) that has like a 180 degree view. I want to put it high in the center of the front of my house to see my driveway and possible front of garage door. Thanks

Alpine, I just thought someone might know of a particular model #. The brand I am familiar with yes.

Hi everyone, I have a little problem...I have from my DVR a monitor out to view the cameras. I have a long RG59 cable from my DVR to the monitor in another room about 100 ft away. When I hook up monitor, the picture flickers....How can I cure that?

The closer it is to the DVR, no flicker, just once I have the distance.

Hi everyone....I have a quick question, which phone is the best to view cameras at home on. I have At&T service, but I want to be able to log into my cameras at home and view them on my phones internet service.

Thanks guys, I am just perplexed because I have tried every phone and I can't get it to work. If the phone has IE I think it would work, but I guess it's a little more complicated than that.

The Iphone wont view it. Is there a setting that I need to change. it will go to "web DVR" when you enter site key and password, it does nothing.

Thanks guys. I will be thinking about each and everyones' reply

Hi everyone, I am trying to figure out, also what would I need to do this: I have a customer who has 9 cameras at his house running through a pc. He is able to view them on his PC. He now want to be able to view them on any TV in his house while still be able to view them on his pc. How can I do that?

They are analog cameras with a basic DVR card. No loop/Loop out. I just need to know what or how to get the signal from the computer to the attic where the cable is split to all the tv's in his house... The easiest and least expensive way.

Hi everyone, I am brand new to the forum. I have been doing some reading and I can see we all have problems (lOl). Well I have a problem, I bought a KVC4400 capture card for a PC i built for my house with 7 cameras. I am able to see them fine at home. I am using a diginet software to view at home. Now my problem is, I have set up everything I think correctly in my router (wrt300n) forward all the appropriate ports, but I cant get in when I type the IP address using another PC not on my network. Can anyone help me. I am using Comcast as my ISP,dynamic IP. If anyone can help and need more info I will be glad to provide. Thank you, Strokey

Thanks for the reply...Now, can you explain a little more how to do this please?
