Symptom: Ground loops

Ground loops are indicated by seeing 60 Hz noise on the video.

1.Check for resistance between the grounds of the keyboard and the system. Ideally, there should be zero ohms.

2.Remove the coaxial BNC connector and check for voltage between the BNC shield of the controller and the BNC shield of the system. No voltage should be detected.

It is recommended that a Pelco GIT100 ground isolation transformer be installed to eliminate the above problems.

Symptom: No video or poor video

1.Check the system power and video BNC connections.

2.Check all coaxial BNC connectors from the camera to the monitor.

3.Make sure the controller is set for the correct camera-to-monitor viewing combination; for example, Camera 1 to Monitor 1. Refer to the controller manual for information.

4.Check for normal load termination of 75 ohms. When looping through VCRs or multiplexers, make sure the signal is terminated at the end device. Some termination symptoms and problems are listed below.

Symptom

Problem

Extremely bright video

No termination or high resistance

Over contrast or contrast level of monitor needs to

Double termination (37.5 ohms)

be increased to maximum for a good video image

 

Symptom: Unable to view activity through glass

When the camera is pointed to a window, it cannot pick up any activity behind the glass. This is a limitation of thermal imaging technology.
