D/N camera reset to default settings after power failure

[CSG 0]

I installed several Sony SSC-DC593 Day/Night box cams about 3 years ago. This location had several power failures, probably which resulted in the power flickering on and off.

 

Anyhow after power was restored, the video was messed up on all these cams. Went up on the ladder to take a look, all the settings were defaulted (the default is manual iris and no day-night.). I had to re-configure the iris settings and the D/N settings. Never had this happen before as the settings are stored in non-volatile memory.

 

Well the worst part was the pidgeons like to perch on the Pelco housings and the housings were a bloody mess.

Maybe thats a good reason to use domes, the pidgeons can't perch on them.
