setting up a pub CCTV system?

admin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 02:26:29 +0000

I require some help setting up a pub CCTV system.

I have the cameras all mounted from the previous owner, and a box called a ‘MDVR’ and theres a number on it saying RS-485.

I am trying to get this setup soon as I think some staff are giving away free pints, does anyone have any tips or knowhow when it comes to this kind of setup? thank you.

Well I do not know the answers, but MDVR is a mobile digital video recorder and RS-485 is a serial communications method of transmission for data.
CCTV people do not give many trade secrets away, they like you to pay them to set it up for you.
You should have cameras, a device for recording their output and a device for playing back the visual output that has been stored and a method of connecting them together. Also power supplies for all of those as they all work off electricity. The cameras may be powered from the MDVR though.
The only site that I can find that gives basic instructions with a few useful sub-menus that may help you is this one;

Not much help I`m afraid, you might have to get an expert in to set it up, but as you have some of the parts installed already then it may be financially viable in the longer term, given your suspicions.
Best of luck with it, Bert.

How Can I easily disconnect the Clifford security system from my vehicle?

My trusted mechanic in this small, remote Arizona desert town found and just swapped out a 2003 Toyota engine for the thoroughly dead 1995 engine and now the security system does not recognize the 2003 engine, so we are not able to even get the starter to turn. How Can I easily disconnect the Clifford security system from my vehicle so that I can get it reprogrammed when I later drive up to Phoenix?

You will have to ask a dealer and prove the car is yours. Answering this kind of question in a public forum will only help car thieves.

How does the public health system in panama work for people not covered by social security?

admin — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 04:54:30 +0000

Hello everybody!
I’m working on a presentation about the health system in Panama and there are a few things I still don’t quite understand about the public health system.

There are hospitals from Social Security and the Ministry of Health. Can you just go to each of these hospitals? And what happens when you are unemployed and not paying for the social security system? Can you still go to the social security hospitals then?

To make it short: Where is the difference in the services available if you seek medical care when you are paying for social security or when you are unemployed?

Thank you very much!

How the health system in panama does not work? As the average Panamanian would say, public health care is very poor, worse yet if you are not employed, less health care coverage than those with social security coverage.

Dvr cctv camera downloading to pc problem…?

admin — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 05:08:26 +0000

i have a CK-DVR-4920 but i cannot download the file to my pc…

i tried to get the 260gb hardisk and put it directly to the primary slave of my PC, but it was not detected.

i tried also to use the USB port, and connect it to my PC… My PC recognizes a USB Mass Storage and says it is readu to use. but i cannot find it in "My Computer"

i tried to use the software but the software doesn’t recognize it neither

i used another software and it is recognize at IDE 0 -Usb Mass Storage, but that software doesn’t support my dvr.

how can i get the videos i need?

Rightclick on the My Computer icon ? Manage ? Disk Management, it should be in there. You may need to change the drive letter for it.

Set the BIOS, to detect the hard drive. If the BIOS cannot see it, then the OS can’t.

Also, a HD in an external case, must be set as "Master".

I want to purchase dvr recording unit for cctv camera what specification I select to get good performance?

For 16 cameras having video and audio recording for about 15 days recording capasity

For 16 cameras to record high definition (HD) for 15 days non-stop (24h) is not very practical for home – unless you are a company and can afford a CCTV system with multiple harddrives.
For budget CCTV, you need to use some other ways to record:
If you use motion detection, once there is a movement, it starts to record, then it would be better.
Or buy one with a secluded recording system, every few seconds it takes one picture and save it to a harddrive.
Once you are sure about function, go to ebay, the same function are normally at the same price range.

Can you use a pc monitor with a surveillance camera?

admin — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 03:54:22 +0000

I have a monitor from a pc that we don’t use anymore. I want to use this with our surveillance camera. The monitor has USB ports on the side and the camera uses yellow red and white RCA cables. Can I use the monitor without connecting it to a pc? Amazon sells RCA to USB cables but I dont know which to use.

I dont know what you mean by not knoing what to use, but get the rca to usb, and plug it in to both sides of the component, and you should be fine!

My current security system for my home computer is about to expire, WHAT is a good security system to buy?

admin — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 03:54:17 +0000

I need to get a security system for my home computer what is a decent system that is still affordable?

I don’t know what is good. But, I know what is bad.
Bitdefender don’t honor their 3 users. They unprotected what they consider one license(only 1 user). If they can’t get their license to work right. I doubt their protection.
Norton does let some viruses walk through.
Kaspersky, try few years ago, it is like strict jacket. Ask you permission all the time. It is ok?

I recommend just get the free program the above two recommend. Don’t do anything important like banking or online shopping on computer.
