I have a garage which is around 40ft from the front of my house.
There are two cameras on the garage, one at each end.
The signals/data from the cameras is transmitted via a wireless bridge to the nvr in the house.
The cameras work ok in daylight, and intrusions are notified on the nvr by a beeper .
The system is set up to arm after 730pm and disarm after 630am.
I performed a walk round to check all the 5 cameras on the property sound and flash after 730pm.
Camera on the back of the garage: white light came on but dim even though the Illumination setting was the same as the others. No alarm sounder or flashing or flashing red/blue lights.
Camera on front of garage: Dim white light, but alarm sounder/flashing lights do work.
Brief History
Oct 27th When I performed a search on the rear camera, I found that my intrusion blacked out the image to the extent that I could just about make out my face as I moved around in the zone.
Oct29th On the front camera, a day later after arming, I was at my computer screen which is next to the monitor, with all cameras images showing in monochrome,when there was a disturbance on the camera.
I then did a search on that camera, and found that it had blacked out too.
back to today.
I opened the Camera image section, and looked at the profiles for all of the cameras.
When I switched from auto to colour all the cameras including the front and rear garage cams showed a coloured image, and in both day and night Profile. Bear in mind it was 830pm in UK so it's dark.
I returned the rear camera to the day profile and auto in the day/night mode. And I also reduced the Illumination to 50 from 80 to see if it made any difference.
Next I re-entered the Rear camera zone. Still no alarms.
When I returned to replay the footage the screen went from monochrome to colour when I entered the intrusion zone, and the image was there if somewhat gloomy. I had taken my spotlight torch, and this positively affected the areas illuminated buy the torch. Still no alarm sounder or lights.
I'd previously had a fiddle with some of the wires in the garage to check if the RJ45s were fully seated.
These two cams have always shown up as Disconnected in Camera / PoE ( red dot next to the port number.)
However under Camera list/Device status, all 5 cameras show green dots. Even though Motion in disabled there are green dots against the cameras
In Camera list/camera list, the garage cams are connected to 37777 - these transmit via the wireless bridge and the gismo in the attachment
The light grey cable goes to the NVR, and the black cable comes from whatever is attached to the Witek on the front of the house, with the signals from both garage cams
Anyone else had this kind of problem?
Apologies for starting another thread on my problems.
