IA76 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hi We ordered a HD-SDI PTZ for the sole purpose of sending video to a HDMI projector. We also purchased this converter box http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ex-Pro%C2%AE-SDI-HDMI-Mini-Converter/dp/B00ATQ26M0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1447796112 When we connect the camera to the converter box the SDI lock light flickers but we get no picture on the screen. We know the converter is 100% working so that can be rules out as being faulty. We don't have the a HD-SDI DVR to plug the camera in to test if it is working so is there anything else we can plug in to see if it is outputting video?

Steven_W Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I had to bite the bullet & buy a tester as my analogue only tester is now redundant so if you do a lot of installs, buy a meter & check it that way. What's the make/model of the camera & where'd you buy it? Can you get help from the supplier?

Night Owl Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 What set do you use? I've got the same issue! Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39371-hd-sdi-cctv-cam-not-working/#findComment-435336 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_W Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 How about doing it this way... connect it to a HD-SDI DVR then feed the projector from the DVR but only showing that channel? If your client is not bothered about recording you could buy a barebones HD-SDI DVR for about £80 plus VAT trade & send the converter back...?
