cbellissimo 0 Posted June 3, 2011 Hello, I have a client who purchased Sanyo Cameras and a Generic DVR. When I plug everything in and than power up, the cameras are displayed for a brief 5 seconds and than they shut off. Just guessing but could it be that Sanyo Cameras are only compatible with Sanyo DVR's/DVR Software? Any help would be greatly appreciated Regards, Chris.

SEANHAWG 1 Posted June 3, 2011 If its analog equipment, compatibility should not really be an issue as I dont think thats even possible. Can you give the model # of the camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hello Everyone, I have known about the site for a while now and I figured I should register and say hello. I have been in this industry for about 5 year now. I have my own company that sells, installs and wholesales. So I am just peaking around if anyone needs help I can help answer some questions as well. Hope to see you around. Thanks, cbellissimo. cbellissimo. dont take this the wrong way but why are you stuck on such a basic question. you own a cctv install company and also a cctv wholesale company. both of which you should know the basics of cctv being an installer and a sales company. your problem could be anything from a short in just 1 BNC giving the dvr a short and switching off to your cameras are under or over powered. first test plug your cameras into a tv or test monitor see what you have. bell out all your cables i.e check all BNC conectors. check that all pos and neg on power are all the same plug 1 camera at a time back into your dvr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
