On mine under the event you are working on in my case a Tripwire, under the light and siren area I have a Period option. In mine I have it setup to also not come on in the day time. while it isn't perfect it suits my needs... Oddly when I click it the screen for my camera goes black but there is a c...

I wrote something that I thought OK that is just TMI lol. So to keep it simple, I have 2 local locations and 2 remote locations that I have devices and then I have more then to many cameras DVR/NVRs here that I use for security and testing reasons. I have gifted a few away along the way. *4108-HS, 2...

Ok. Yes testing a new power supply would be best bet. Some systems for cameras come with a power adaptor with 4 or 8 pigtail.. However if your camera power supply is rated for same or more then the DVR I would unplug the cameras and use that one to test the DVR with HDD installed to make sure it is ...

So for me I have 32ch 16P POE NVR, 16ch with 16 port POE, 16ch POE NVR with 8ch ports and others like 4108E with 8 ports and 4108-HS and many more.

Also if you are using a single power supply for your cameras and your DVR that shouldn't happen. While I do have a setup with 2 analog cameras and the rest of the connected Cameras are IP c...

Here is a starting place. It can be hard at times finding one that is really 5amps now days. Keep in mind that finding one for 5 ish most likely would be a fake and would have much less then 5amp output. I my self have bought a few to find they are less then marked output of about 3.6amps and even s...

1 last thing to keep in mind, When you are looking at the PSU of any other device keep in mind that normally the Center is + but there are some people out there that like to be different and might have the power on the outside. So when looking at the AMPS also make sure that it says the Center is + ...

Well normally a power supply for the camera is the same for the DVR a 2 amp power supply for 4 cameras. However it could be one with 8 cameras then it could be 2 power supplies and or 1 5amp power supply. So if you were to look at the PSU for the DVR and one for the cameras, If they are same rated 2...
