    PZT Problem

    Well, finally got up the ladder. As expected I could not find a reset switch for the camera. It only seems to have leads for power, video and ptz control. So as a last resort I gave the glass dome a gentle twist. After doing that the camera started moving on its own, and full ptz control was...

    PZT Problem

    Thanks. Will get the ladder out at the weekend and have a look for the reset switch check the dip switches. I did try all combinations of PELCO and baud rate at the router end with no joy. But that is operating somewhat blind! Will report back. Many thanks for the ideas!

    PZT Problem

    Hi. No not had a chance yet to get the ladders out to go up and look at the camera. Mostly been tweaking the settings hoping for a fix. From memory the camera only had a power and bnc line. I don't recall any reset button. But will look. The amazon product details don't really help either...

    PZT Problem

    PZT Problem

    Thanks. Will have a play with the power feeds later today and see what happens. The original issue occurred during daylight hours, so I did not think it was an IR issue. But the camera does start off monochrome before moving to full colour, so maybe it does cycle through IR on start up. The...

    PZT Problem

    Hello, I was hoping for some advice on my PTZ camera, which seems to be mmisbehaving. I have a 8 channel Hikvision DVR and camera 1, is a generic PTZ camera (possibly an annke camera). Today the DVR lost power (un-planned switch off and on) and now the PTZ does not want to be controlled via...
