Hi all,

So this is my first tread and am looking forward to any assistance that can be provided. I have a old camera its a DS-2CD712PF-E I found it was not presenting video on a Monday about two weeks back, I unplugged the camera and plugged it back in. Now it makes a continues beep when its plugged in and cant access or find the camera. Does anyone know if there is a way to check beep codes on the camera? or if not if you've maybe experienced this and have a fix for me?
 
The CAMERA is beeping?
What is is plugged in to?
 
That is correct, The camera itself. Its plugged into a switch, all other cameras are working correctly and I have tried to plug it into another port on the switch with a different Ethernet cable but still shouts at me as soon as the cable goes in.
 
Could it be a "video loss" alarm (i.e. failure of the camera), or alarm-in pin shorted, or SD card not formatted (from newer cameras)?
Dunno my friend, check also the attached manual.
