Update.. We continue to have more issues with these cameras. New Firmware has been provided to try to resolve some of the issues with drop-off. Did not resolve the issue as of yet. Now the manufacturer is telling us it may be the POE switches being used.
Thanks for the advice. I have been working with their engineers. They are professional, and they are trying to help us out. They are thinking that this may be an issue with PoE of some sort. We have seen the problems on various manufacturer PoE switches. We have been installing firmware updates, throttling bandwidth, and running log file captures.
The problem is that I am sitting on $20,000 worth of IP cameras that don't seem to work properly in multiple different environments with multiple customers. My customers are frustrated that they don't have reliable video recorded, and all of this makes them question the NVR product that I sold to record everything (This is what I built my business around).
I don't see these kinds of problems when I use Axis, Sony, or Panasonic. (Literally side by side with Zavio, and the Zavio products drop off.) Either these manufacturers are integrated better into the software I am recording with, handle PoE better, or there are some fundamental issues with the Zavio product line.
I'm not here to bash Zavio. They are trying to assist. This is taking a significant amount of time to drive to these locations, and test different firmware, wiriing, re-wiring. What would you do in this situation if you had sold these cameras and were having these kinds of problems?
The cameras are listed as supported using the latest device pack from Nuuo, and are supposedly integrated with the entire Zavio camera lineup. We were actually introduced to Zavio by someone at Nuuo as a suggested camera partner.
We did sample a few basic cameras in a couple of test locations and our shops. It wasn't until we thought they were solid and started to expand with several customers that the drop off issues began to appear. We had had 1 camera that showed some problems, but we thought it may have been a wiring issue, or simply a bad camera.
vin2install, Many of the cameras when they dropped off of the HVR software, we were able to ping, but could not bring up the web interface. We were provided firmware upgrades for this exact issue, but the cameras are still dropping off. Cycling POE power on the cameras brings them right back up.
At the exact same time I had an Axis IP camera that did not drop off, or lose any recorded video. (As I indicated previously, it could partly be poor camera integration in the software I am using.. and we will have to work with the HVR manufacturer to see if there is anything that can be done... my experience on this thus far is that all sides will point fingers towards the other, and we won't get anyone working on it very fast )
As I noted, this isn't to beat up on Zavio.... yet... they are trying to provide a solution to the many instances of issues. The biggest problem is turn around time and if our customers are willing to bear through another few weeks of trying to overcome the problem.. and us throwing money at installers and integrator's to see if the next fix works or not. It costs money to have to make changes on site.
Our integrator's and distributors like having a one stop shop for product that is supposed to work together. I guess this may just be part of the learning curve. If Zavio can't overcome the issues for us, we will take a long hard look at any potential other providers we consider carrying.
