ei0675 0 Posted February 22, 2011 ok so got called to a client whos installer has gone. he has a eovision 16 channel sysytem with 11 cameras however only 6 are showing. on flying lead 1 (blue) ch1 -4 and ch8 on flying lead 2 (black) ch11 so i tested each camera individually with a test monitor all are working. so taking a ca moeras from a non viewing channel to a viewing channel its also working so the cameras not the issue. going into setting: all channels are active and all channels are configured the same. when i go to camera set up and say on channel 10 the camera shows in the set up window but not the main window. Also if i disconnect a camera from a viewing channel i get video loss text but on other channels only have a geovision logo. i cant figure this one out. what am i missing??

Neutech 0 Posted February 22, 2011 Which GV card is in it? did you shut don and reboot? Blue screen/black screen with missing ones or does it say geovision? Check user view settings under password setup? PM on its way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Daley 0 Posted February 23, 2011 Can you be more specific, which channel #'s are not working. Are they paired?? Meaning this... the following channels are "paired" if you will 1/5/9/13 2/6/10/14 3/7/11/15 4/8/12/16 If you have bad cameras on all of one line (meaning cameras 1/5/9/13 dont work OR 2/6/10/14 dont work, etc...) then its something on the card thats blown. Ive had this happen on numerous cards, where something shorts out the board. i BELIEVE geovision uses chips on the board, where 1 chip does 4 cameras, and if that chip gets fried, you lose those 4 channels. They are usually aligned in a row veritcally too. Thats my experience anyway, if you could be more detailed about which channel #'s are out, that would help.

Neutech 0 Posted October 20, 2011 Hey Gaz Confirm again , does it say 12 port S1 on the geo card? If so its only a 12 Channel DVR you can have then, is there 2 serial cables? If not and it says 16 port S1 then you need to log i as the admin or supervisor to allow you to change the settings under password, this will allow you to select the 4 missing Hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaz1 0 Posted October 20, 2011 it does say 12 port s1 stuck on one of the chips of the geovision card it does have 2 serial cables at the plug ends at back of the card 1 black 1 blue cables there is no other passwords to the system except admin as its a brand new install of xp sp3 as needed the admin password to gain access into the geovison software thankyou for your advice but it is looking like its a 12 port dvr card i didnt even know one existed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
