stano711 0 Posted January 8, 2014 We had 8 Sony 1/3 EYEMAX STORM IP68 Cameras installed just over a year ago. One has started to flash between image and white space very fast. It is connected to a DW VMAX Flex DVR. I disconnected it from it's input into another and it still flashes so my guess it is the camera. Anyone familiar with this issue and the fix? Maybe just a reset inside the camera? The other cameras do not have this problem. I tried attaching a movie file from the DVR but I was informed that, The extension mov is not allowed.

stano711 0 Posted January 9, 2014 I replaced the balun at the DVR before climbing an extension ladder at the camera outside and that fixed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stano711 0 Posted January 9, 2014 Bummer...I checked two hours later and it's back to flashing(strobing effect) again. Camera reset? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tibovdk 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Most of the time, such problems are because of the power source. Maybe you should check the balun at the other end? I also encountered this problem because of a bad ground wiring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stano711 0 Posted January 15, 2014 I've changed out both baluns from either end. Today when I climbed up to the camera I noticed a very small flickering in the lens. I took it down and brought it in and hooked it up to a test harness that I made and hooked it up to the dvr and power. It flickered for a little bit and then stopped. I then took it back outside and reinstalled it and it worked fine....for about 15 minutes and then it started again. It seems to be strobbing between daylight color and ir b/w when outdoors. Indoors again and the image is just fine in daylight color. I turn the lights out and it easily goes to b/w ir. I will leave it indoors overnight and see what happens. Any suggestions as to leaving the lights on or off? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
