Hand-Held CCTV Test Monitor with Camera Power

January 21, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Hand-Held CCTV Test MonitorCCTV Camera Pros of Boynton Beach Florida, today launched the new MON-LCD25P hand-held CCTV test monitorwith camera power. The LCD25P test monitor is different that many other service monitors on the market because the LCD25P is capable of supplying power to the security camera that it is being tested. The 2.5” LCD screen provides a crystal clear image that allows installers to verify the angle of view and focus of cctv cameras. Being that the LCD25P can supply power to cameras, security installers can temporarily hold a camera in position to confirm angle of view and focus without running permanent cables or permanently mounting the camera.

Commenting on the MON-LCD25P, CCTV Camera Pros co-founder Mike Haldas says: “Our customers have been asking for a hand-held CCTV test monitor that also powers the camera being tested for a while.  We are very excited that we now have a manufacturing partner making the MON-LCD25P for us to our specification and quality assurance standards. There are several hand-held service monitors on the market but none at this affordable price point that use the battery of the tester to also power the security camera being tested. Our product development team continues to listen to the demands of our customers and deliver the product solutions that they ask us for. I am very proud of how CCTV Camera Pros continues to adapt to market demands.”

The LCD25P comes complete with the following: 2.5” LCD hand-held test monitor, quick release neck strap, rechargeable battery with power supply, coaxial test cable with RCA and BNC connectors, camera power supply cable, and instruction manual.

CCTV Test Monitor

November 11, 2009 by admin · Comments Off 

A CCTV test monitor is a device commonly used by CCTV installers and electricians during surveillance system installations when they need to mount, test, and focus a security camera.  CCTV test monitors, also known as portable CCTV monitors are incredibly convenient because they enable one installer to perform the camera mount and focus.  Typically, and without the use of a test monitor, mounting and focusing a surveillance camera requires two installers: one to adjust the camera and the other to be watching a monitor back at the location of the recorder.  Furthermore, it is always a challenge for the two installers to communicate with each other because the DVR and the camera being mounted are typically not in the same room, so many installers rely on cell phone communication when mounting and back focusing cameras.

There are many test monitors available on the market and as with any electronic device, some are built better and perform better than others.  Below are two models that we have tested and found to perform very well that are supplied by CCTV Camera Pros and range in price from $129.99 to $299.99.  Both of these products are available for purchase on this page: Portable CCTV test & service monitors.
