m300raj 0 Posted March 6, 2017 Hi all i have a strange problem with this newly installed camera all was fine i thought but as soon as night fell and iR is activated video scrambled for a few seconds the no video until morning when ir deactivated, so i thought it was the camera and i swapped it over for a new one and had the same fault it is currently attached to a Hikvision DS-7208HGHI-SH any help would be appreciated.

Securame 0 Posted March 6, 2017 Check the power for your camera, it probably is not enough for the camera to work at night with the infrarred on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m300raj 0 Posted March 7, 2017 I have swapped power supply just incase with a dedicated 12v 1amp psu and that had no effect. I assume 12v is enough 1amp should be as max consumption is 4w. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have now put in a 2 amp psu as i think the cheap Chinese one may be under powering the camera as several people have said its the power supply i will update my findings tomorrow. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
