Camara problems? (lots of Lines in the pictures from Cams}

Recommended Posts

I have had problems with some of my Camaras

The Dvr is made by Q-see

The 8 camaras were bought from ApexCCTV

Anyways some of my camara when watching on my Monitor at night times shows many LINES going across the picture(very annoying watching your driveway and seeing lines up and down the screen}

It happens on 3 out of the 8 camara(3 different nite camaras}

Anyways I replace the Male Female plug from the Camara too the cable

that goes to the power supply and everything works fine untill the next day or two or three and the lines come back.

Wondering maybe its Best to buy a better male female Plug?

Or is the a silicone I can use?

Any ideas?I am kindaaaa lost lol....thanks JT

Just curious. Is there a difference between what the power supply is providing to the cameras and what the cameras are rated for (in volts and amps)? Since it goes away after you unplug it (to put on a new connector) it is ok at first, but it starts going bad relatively soon. That would be the first thing I would check.

I have a 16 camara power supply and useing 8 camaras

I switched connections on the power supply with

each camara thats giving me the problems

I have 3 exact Dome camaras with nitevision and only 1 is giving me the problem.

As for the other 2 camaras it seems that those lose Video for whatever reason until I disconnect the Camara and the Male Female connector and

and just connect it and video comes back on(very annoying happens too offen}

But the outside Dome Camara has black lines coming from the top too

the bottom of the screen{Not a very clear picture}

Its amazing just connecting a Newer Male female make the Video soooo much better until a few days(Does not last long.

Just wonding would it make any differance to Buy a Better Male Female connector or are they all the same?

I remember someone telling me to put Silicone in my Cable TV connector

so no Moisture would get in a ruin my TV picture,,,,wondering if that would help with the problem I am having?(hate too put silicone into something that might not work}.......Thanks for your time JT

yes there should be two reason.

 

first is the problem of the cables . the male and female connector is not good .

 

second it's the power box maybe not enough amp for the camera.

 

You can try some power adaptor . DC12V /1A for dome and DC12V/1.5A for outdoor camras.
