G'Day from DOWN UNDER

Hi.

I am based in North East Victoria Australia.

I am a registered Building Designer & Engineering Officer, and love to design.

I use CCTV to monitor my Solar Equipment, re;-Panels, Regulators and Batteries.

I am also a Design Draftsman and need to know why I cannot get a CCTV camera to view an LED display.

Can any boby help me?

What do you mean by "can't view" ... do you mean that the LED display is just a big bright light and you can't distinguish the image or that you can't see anything. You will need to be more specific in regards to your issue.

After some discussion with a CCTV Tech Guru I found that the LED night vision system was the problem.

Reflection of a "White Light" from any reflective surface, including the LED Screen can, and did, cause problems.

I covered the Camera LED's with tape (while leaving the Camera Lens clear), and the display digits are now visible on my 7" Screen.

Last night I use a simple LED Light Globe, still all going well.

 

Thanks Campbell for your thoughts, in questioning.

I shall continue using this site for other CCTV design hints.
