Help wiring security camera's |
|
|
Hi All,
So can anyone help me :-(
I have a simple setup (I thought) 4 core cable running to camera (red,
black, White and yellow) with a braided coper sheath.
I terminated both ends as such.......
Power
red to positive
black to negative (gnd)
Video
Yellow to centre pin
braid to gnd
I did that both ends. I have narrowed the problem down to the video side of
the cable but what on earth can I be doing wrong? its straight through, have
checked and there are no breaks :-(
ALSO
I have a few camera's with RJ11 connectors. I want to snip them and put on a
phono plug and a power plug....
Again I have 4 core cable (no braid this time.....) Red, Black, Blue and
yellow
Anyone any ideas what I should do here?
Thanks
Paul

Sounds like the composite cable supplied with Micromark systems.

As long as the colours are the same at both ends, that should work. Just
make sure there are no loose strands shorting across.

Same as before but use the blue for the video gnd. make off both ends the
same and don't let any strands short across.
