Here's the deal...
I have a customer that had an "friend" install camera systems at 2 hotels for him. The DVR was junk so my customer went to... COSTCO and bought 2 for the properties. The installer used transformers at each location instead of a power supply and used the cheap twist on BNC connectors. I now have a camera not working properly but it's not showing video loss on the DVR monitor.
I've replaced the ends, tested continuity, replaced the cable, moved the camera to another location and it works fine, used the transformer at another location and it works, moved another camera's connection to this camera's DVR port and that works. Moved this camera's connection to a working camera's DVR port and nothing except a black screen but no video loss message unless I remover the connection from either the camera or DVR. :bang:
Any suggestions? Do you think a tester would find the fault and if so any recommendations? Only have less than 20 CCTV customers currently so I'm not looking for a high dollar tester at this point.
