hambone13

Have a Nuvico camera with a onboard menu. In order to make changes you must use the remote control and make changes on a monitor close to camera. They state that you must use a Novico DVR to access the menu through the DVR. That was only stated as DVR in manual, but after the fact found it must be their brand. I have a PC with a DVR card installed. (Only used for this purpose) It supports PTZ, and I can zoom in and out using software. So know I have the cable and RS485 set up correctly. Now the question is, can anything be done to get the camera menu to show up on the monitor and make changes with a keyboard without climbing on roof with a remote, small monitor and using remote to make changes. Just asking, the camera needs on the roof of garage. thanks for any help. J. S.

This is hambone13. yes all I wanted to do was use the client software to view it and also access the files from the soft ware. I have dial up, so using it for remote access is not possible. Their advertising is a work of art.

Thank you for answering this. I was wondering about the AMD processor verses the Intel. That I cannot change, but could increase the RAm, that is now 256. there is no firewall, and I do not have internet ex. set up. I only wanted to use the software, nothing else on this computer. the only thing on this is XP pro, the software, its tools, but was unable to get the software to show anythng. I have the channel No. showing but will not do anything when you ask for thelog files or anything showing any image at all Just keeps giving me a error message, log in failed. I have downloaded the latest Direct X files. There is no router. Would be so nice if somewhere in their documation they would list the requirements for using this software. That inf. shows on other products.

I have the G4-LTA. I was hoping to be able to use the Client software and view the footage on a computer. I set up a computer for this, connected with the correct cable,shows that it is working. I simply after many hours of doing almost everything, I keep getting a message, signin error. dvr busy ect. . I have gotten their manuals out, copied all numbers correctly in both DVR and computer but still the software will not work. Called tech support to the point that they are brushing me off. (Intellicom Systems) Is there another software program that could be used, they said not. AMD processore 256 ram updated video card to XP( works on LCD monitor) XP pro 10/100 ethernet card

I bought the G4-LTA and I want to drop kick it out the door. The remote is difficult to get to work, the quality of the recording is not good, I have two cameras hooked up, if the cameras are run into a monitor without the DVR, perfect, if they are run through the DVR, terrible. And yes, we have tried different wires. If someone else has had good luck, my hats off to you. I bought this unit because of the good reviews, but I am one disillusioned consumer.
