jhendor 0 Posted April 10, 2018 Please i think i am a bit confused and frustrated now. Why is this happening? I just finished setting up a CCTV system with 32 AHD 2mp cameras and 32 channel 1080p DVR. Even though some cameras are over 120m away from the DVR, everything works fine. I also have an inverter as back up. Inverter is 1000KVA, battery is 12V, 100A Unfortunately, I noticed that whenever there is a power outage and thus switching between generator and grid power, the DVR usually restarts itself and i wonder why. Anybody also experienced this? What can i do to resolve this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Securame 0 Posted April 10, 2018 its an inverter connected, i'm not supposed to be having a break in power at all Your DVR restarts, so it obviously does so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tomcctv 190 Posted April 11, 2018 depend in type of inverter and how the change over is Easy way is to fit a uninterrupted power supply between inverter and dvr just to stop dvr from loosing power The cheap way would be remove mains power from dvr then connect dvr direct to battery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
