    A customer contacted CCTV Camera Pros with the following questions recently:

    I have a camera from our system that no longer works. It is an outdoor analog PTZ camera apparently made by a company called ISC and is approximately four years old. I have a few questions about it for you.

    – Is it worth repairing?

    – What can we replace it with?

    – Is it possible to get a digital camera and feed the analog DVR with it?

    CCTV Camera Pros response:

    Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. Please see answers to your questions below:

    – Is it worth repairing? Typically no. In most cases replacements parts for legacy PTZ are not available and if they are, they cost as much as a replacement.

    – What can we replace it with? I recommend that you take a look at these two options:

    – Is it possible to get a digital camera and feed the analog DVR with it?

    Yes, but you need to use a decoder to change the signal from digital to analog. So for example, you can use this camera:

    and decode the signal using this device:

    Please let me know if I can help further.
