steven@segers.ph 0 Posted March 4, 2023 I've had this cheap analog Zosi DVR for a few years already (https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01K19IN26/ref=pe_3044161_189395811_TE_SCE_dp_1) It's been working fine all this time but it does have some downsides, the main one being that it's terribly slow. I recently bought two better (I think) devices at an auction. A Bosh DIVAR 5000 and a Dahua NVS1604HF-A-E. Unfortunately, I'm not getting any signal from my cameras on either device (while on the Zosi DVR I do). The most obvious possible cause would be that both devices are broken, but this seems unlikely since they were both still new in packaging. (Of course, at an auction, you're never sure of what you get). It was my, perhaps naïve, assumption that analog cameras are just plug-and-play. Would there be anything to configure regarding this type of camera? Or could the signal I get from the cameras be too weak for the other DVRs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi both you auction units are old …. Bosh is 7 years old dahua is 9 years old and both units are analog 960h only your zosi is a HD analog TVI unit and can only use TVI cameras …… if you just need a new dvr look for a 4 in 1 unit …. This will allow you to use your existing cameras 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
