    Tester for CCTV Cameras

    Thats quite a big jump in price. I understand what your saying about the cheap testers. For the price of the Klein unit you have listed I could get the Dahua tester.

    First time installing Dahua IP Cameras

    Ive installed Dahua Tool Box. On the Config Tool I can only see the NVR on my Network, no Cameras are showing despite being plugged into the NVR. I am on an Apple Macbook Pro. If someone could walk me through it that would be great.

    Ive seen there is a reset flap that has two screws. I don’t want to void the warranty as I only got them last week. So I may just send it back. Is there a way to test my cable to make sure that it’s not that.
