Problems
January 21, 2010
Problem
The NetCam is not generating images or responding to any attempts to access the camera. David Keith noticed the green indicator light was not lit on the back of the camera. He tested the Ethernet cable by plugging it into the laptop and we had internet connection. We brought the camera back to UND where Jen is going to contact StarDot Technologies regarding the camera issue.
Cause
Not 100% sure but it is believed the cause of our problem is the power supply for the camera. A 9V power supply was used (camera has a range of 8-15V power supply) to test the camera and when plugged in the green indicator light came on. An email (March 9, 2010) was sent to Anthony Watts of StarDot Technologies indicating the findings.
