Sorry. I don't know how to connect this camera, I called their help line and the tech down load the "team viewer", he do everything about 15 minutes. Give them a call.

the white button is a reset button. i think it will reset the camera to out of box settings. idk about the lights

there is no on / off button for this device, it takes power from the cigarette plug, so for most car, when the engine is on, cigarette plug will give power and the device will be turn on automatically and vice versa. Please note though, some car gives power from the cigartte plug regardless, if that happens, there is a diconnecting point on the cable, close to the device, from there it can be disconnected. That is also, if you have more than one power cables, you could also share same device without removing all the well hidden cables. As for the audio, it's set from menu, you could have it turn on and it'll automatically on until you set it off from the menu. Hope this explains Marie of Kiwavcom

Not a dumb question. The "usb port" is actually the pressure sensor switch option that triggers the light on when pushed. This is typically is placed near the trigger and therefore your cord connects from the light itself to the "usb port." I believe this light has the option of using the pressure sensor or using a switch on the light itself. Either way it's a nice feature but I prefer the pressure sensor mounted by my trigger so its a matter of touch. Hope this answers your question.

I found that issue to be a problem as well. I've tried several solutions: First, cut off the power receptacle flush at the molded Y connector. It is not necessary if you power the camera with PoE. I have had no issues as a result of cutting it off. I've also run my Cat6 cable coming from my switch through the wall and used the Dahua-furnished cover to protect the connection outdoors. I had to drill out the RJ45 cover to accommodate the diameter of the Cat 6 cable. I have also put in some low-voltage remodel boxes in soffits, cut a small slot on the exterior metal cover and slid the cable into it, then stuffed the excess cable into the soffit. And last, I had a Foscam camera with a similar issue and I cut the Ethernet connector off of the pigtail on the camera, ran the camera's cable through a small hole, and then re-terminated the Ethernet connector on an RJ45.

This camera uses 12V when powered by a transformer and 48V when powered by a Cat-5 ethernet cable, (it is easy to be confused by this concept). The wires in a Cat-5 cable are relatively small and have a lot of resistance, therefore, to be sure there is adequate voltage at the camera through a long (up to 100 meter) ethernet cable, the voltage using POE is increased to 48V at the source. The camera is 802.3af compliant which means that it can accommodate a voltage higher than 12V from the ethernet cable and regulate it to get the power needed by the camera for operation. For example, if you have 75 feet of ethernet cable and the input voltage at your POE source is 48V, the actual voltage that your camera sees my be only 38V, however, your camera doesn't care what the voltage is as long as it's able to get the power it needs to operate.

Hi, this product is not the correct product for you. However, at your own risk, and the fan nor the wiring diagram not in front of me to check it. It is really hard to know what each wire is. Typically, the Red and white usually connect to the power, blue to the light (dimming is done usually through the remote receiver) at this point there is usually 1 more wire for the motor. You have 3 left that is because your fan reverses via the remote. You can buy the correct one that reverses on amazon or ebay or try to Google the wiring diagram. I wouldn't touch it unless I knew what was what. You can burn out the unit very easily or make a fire hazard or get hurt. Hi, this product is not the correct product for you.

You don't. When you plug it it, it's automatically powered. Then, the software is in charge to control it.Let's say you are using Skype; unless you enable a video conference, the webcam will remain powered but disabled.

Also when you turn your engine off the camera will turn off after a few moments but the key is when ignition is turned off the 12 volt plug should also turn off in most cars if yours doesn't you'll have to power off the camera or unplug the power cord. The safest is to power off the camera.

Hold button till red light turns on and stays on (not blinking) for camera use...hold again for two seconds till red light blinks and stays blinking for video recording..whens is starts blinking. .its recording...hold for five seconds to turns off ..light will blink for shut off just give it a min and It will turn off...instructions are weird...but a lil trial and error will help figure out the controls...and that's I for your basic modes...camera perty durable for the price paid

There are 2 buttons located on the upper outside edges of the cameras that provide 3 settings. 1. IR ON 2. IR OFF ,3. IR AUTO . If not all of the positions work it's just a minor switch defect . Send it back for a replacement. The two buttons on the front are for On/Off and Camera Selection. Hope that helps.

Make sure you also buy the CCTV CCD Camera LED Board Single Head 2 Pin Connector Power Cable 5pcs by Gino or you will have a lot of trouble connecting to it. The cable assembly plugs right into it. You connect the red wire to + 12 Volts and the black wire to ground. Alternatively, you could buy a 12v power supply and connect the cable assembly to it.

Hi Michael, sorry but I'm not sure I understand your question. To me, the "remote" is the actual part that looks like the light switch and that is what turns it on and off. The other part of the package plugs into a regular outlet and then you just plug into that whatever it is you're wanting to use the on/off switch for. I hope I answered your question. Recap: plug the "plug" part into the nearest outlet then plug in your appliance into that and put your "light switch" wherever you want it. Remember to pull out any protective battery terminal strip that they may use to stop battery drain.This is written by A.

My camera was professionally installed by a stereo electronics shop. It comes on about one second after the gear shift lever is put in reverse. It appeared that all of the necessary wiring harnesses were included. As some of the reviewers mentioned the hot and the ground leads are quite small in gauge.

There is no off/on button on this camera. That control on the wire as seen in the picture is the tilt angle control. The control is s few feet from the camera on its wire. The BNC has two wires, one goes to the power supply and the other goes to the DVR. You need to buy the BNC cable and power supply and the DVR. Once you do the picture will be almost the same resolution as cable tv at 720 pixels or half way between full HD 1080 pixels and regular tv using standard 480 pixels.

uses standard power and video connectors like other CCTV cameras. However, you can buy a balun which will carry video and power over a cat5 cable (in fact, a cat5 cable will support up to four cameras and power). I use a number of these baluns. They work fine. Amazon sells a number of them. btw, this camera is pretty large and heavy so it needs a secure mount.

There are adapters (power injectors) you can purchase that lets you send the power over the Ethernet cable. The adapters go on both ends of the Ethernet cable. However, most POE switches will not recognize it as a POE device. Therefore, it won't send the required voltage out to power the device , you still have to use the power adapter that comes with the camera. This is good so you don't have to have a power source close to the camera.
