Consumer review (newegg.com)

not worth the price

The picture is pretty clear, and the install was not that hard

I have three of these installed at a customers location. They are constantly having to be power cycled. What is the deal with this??? For the amount of money you spend you would think they could at least just stay running........ Not impressed, and...

How to Un-Brick after upgrading firmware

Here's how I brought my unit back to life - step by step: 1) Download 3.0.2.2899 firmware and have it available on your computer. 2) Reset camera defaults by holding reset button in for 15 seconds while camera power is on. Release button and unplug...

Great NewEgg deal with lots of features for an IP controllable PT Camera. ABS customer support responded to my email request for help after the firmware upgrade made the unit unresponsive. Although their response wasn't perfectly accurate, it did...

I hope ABS can demonstrate the camera is not just a piece of junk

Many features.. however

I am not sure if I am unlucky or what.. but no matter what I try, this camera locks up about 1 to 2 minutes after I do a power cycle. I updated to the latest firmware, and I'm not sure if that made it worse or not. I like all the camera features, but...

stuck either way

If you DON'T do the firmware update, you won't be able to take advantage of the stated improvements in daylight/night time handling and better web software. If you DO do the update, there's no guarantee you'll ever be able to use the camera again.

When these work, they work fine. Noisy but fine

When I received the three cameras I ordered, they didn't have the latest firmware. The manufacturer mentions IN THESE FEEDBACKS that you should update the firmware. I got the latest firmware from their site and updated two out of three cameras. Neither...
