Cyclical camera restarts during purely analog live operation via BNC connector (CVBS) Description
In previous firmware versions, unwanted cyclical camera restarts may have occurred during purely analog live operation (i.e. if the Ethernet port was not used after completion of the camera configuration), thus causing regular short-term interruptions of the analog video transmission via the BNC connector (CVBS).
