security installation

In London, a Metropolitan Police report showed that in 2008 only one crime was solved per 1000 cameras. In some cases CCTV cameras have become a target of attacks themselves. In the United States, Britain, Australia and New Zealand, CCTV is widely used in schools due to its success in preventing bullying, vandalism, monitoring visitors and maintaining a record of evidence in the event of a crime. There are some restrictions on installation, with cameras not being installed in an area where there is a "reasonable expectation of privacy", such as bathrooms, gym locker areas and private offices unless consent by the office occupant is given. Cameras are generally acceptable in hallways, parking lots, front offices where students, employees, and parents come and go, gymnasiums, cafeterias, supply rooms and classrooms. The installation of cameras in classrooms may be objected to by some teachers. There were an estimated 30 million surveillance cameras in the United States in 2011. Video surveillance has been common in the United States since the 1990s; for example, one manufacturer reported net earnings of $120 million in 1995. With lower cost and easier installation, sales of home security cameras increased in the early 21st century. Following the September 11 attacks, the use of video surveillance in public places became more common to deter future terrorist attacks. Under the Homeland Security Grant Program, government grants are available for cities to install surveillance camera networks.

This setup is great for outdoors where you can mount a radio on the exterior surface of a building and broadcast WiFi to cameras mounted in the signal path, for example, a parking lot, apartment complex, factories, warehouses, lumber yard, sanitation processing, mining operations, cranes, and other industrial applications. Since the signal is WiFi, the transmitting radio can also be placed indoors inside the home or business to broadcast a signal, however the signal strength will vary as explained above. You can also use indoor access points or your own router which are compact and aesthetically pleasing to connect to these WiFi wireless security cameras. The applications are countless in indoor business applications such as hospitals, offices, retail stores, warehouses, restaurants, and manufacturing plants. You simply connect the camera to electricity using a 12V power adapter and mount the camera to a wall or ceiling, and you are done. If you don't have a outlet nearby you can use a 18awg 2 lead wire with a male power terminal and a female power terminal.

Itconnected and installed fine, the button light went to a steady blue, but as soon as I pressed the button, the led colorwould change to Green and the chime would "try" to sound but would cutoff immediately. I thought I needed to install theadapter that came with the unit, but when I checked the voltage on my transformer, it was 10VAC, and as I pressed thebutton, it would come down to about 9. 75V. So, I went to my local store and got a 36V Center tap transformer to replace the10 V one, using the center tap to provide 18VAC. When I got back from the store, just in case, I pressed the button on theGREET, and it worked fine with the original 10VAC transformer. I waited a few minutes, and tried again.
