REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!
Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

Lorex Vantage LH130 ECO2 series DVSR – Set-up procedure

How to set-up Lorex Digital Video Surveillance System [DVSR] 
Setting up DVR for Remote Connectivity
The system features a built-in browser-based software that allows you to access your system remotely over your local area network (LAN) or over the Internet using Internet Explorer® (PC) or Safari® (Mac). There is also a client software for PC provided on the CD.
Accessing your DVR within a local network (LAN)
You can connect to your DVR through Internet Explorer through the local area network (LAN). It is recommended to confirm connectivity over a local network before setting up your DVR for Internet connectivity.
NOTE: To complete the steps below, your computer must be on the same network as your DVR.
NOTE: Except where noted, the instructions below are the same for PC and Mac.
Step 1 of 3: Connect your DVR to the Local Area Network
1 Power off your DVR by turning the power switch to =.
2 Connect an Ethernet cable (included) to the LAN port on the rear panel of the DVR. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an empty LAN port (usually numbered 1~4) on your router.
3 Turn the power switch to I to power the DVR back on.
Step 2 of 3: Obtain the DVR’s Local IP Address and HTTP Port
1 Press the PTZ/<--| button on the front panel of the DVR to open the System Information window.
2 Write down the IP Address and HTTP Port number of the DVR.
• A local IP looks something like this: 192.168.5.118. Note that single digit numbers appear as three digits. For example, "005" is the same as "5".
• Write down the port number beside HTTP Port.
Step 3 of 3: Enter the DVR’s Local IP Address into the Browser
1 Open Internet Explorer [If you are connecting using Internet Explorer 9, you must use the 32-bit version. From the Start Menu, click Internet Explorer. Do not click Internet Explorer (64-bit).]
2 Enter http://, the IP address of the DVR, colon, and the HTTP port number of the DVR (e.g. http://192.168.5.118:80) into the address bar. You must include the HTTP port number of the DVR after the address.
3 An attention bar prompts you to install ActiveX® plug-ins. You must install the ActiveX plug-in to connect to your DVR. Click inside the attention bar, and select Install this Add-on
for All Users on This Computer
to install the plug-in. [If you are connecting using Internet Explorer 9, the attention bar appears on the bottom of the screen. Click Allow to install the plug-in.]
4 Under User Name and Password, enter the DVR’s username and password. By default, the username is admin and the password is left blank.
[If you are having difficulty logging into your system using Internet Explorer, it is recommended to use the Client Software provided on the CD or as a free download from
www.lorextechnology.com.]
To connect to the DVR’s local IP address on a Mac
1 Open Safari.
2 Enter http://, the IP address of the DVR, colon, and the HTTP port number of the DVR (e.g. http://192.168.5.118:80) into the address bar. You must include the HTTP port number of the DVR after the address. A page appears to prompt you to install a plug-in.
3 Click Download to download the plug-in for Safari.
4 Click the downloads button  on the top-right corner of Safari. Right-click SurveillanceClient.dmg in the downloads list and select Open. A web plugin folder appears.
5 Double-click SurveillanceClient and follow the on-screen instructions to install.
6 Quit Safari (right-click the Safari icon in the dock and select Quit) and then restart Safari.
7 Enter http://, the IP address of the DVR, colon, and the HTTP port number of the DVR (e.g. http://192.168.5.118:80) into the address bar.
8 Enter the DVR username and password to log in to the system. By default, the username is admin, and the password is left blank.
Accessing your DVR Remotely over the Internet
[Setting up remote connectivity allows you to view your DVR from any computer or compatible mobile device with Internet access.]
[Except where noted, the instructions below are the same for PC and Mac.]
To set up remote connectivity with your DVR, you must:
1 Port forward the HTTP, Client, and Mobile ports (default: 80, 9000, and 1025) on your router to your DVR’s IP address.
2 Create a DDNS account.
3 Enable DDNS on the DVR.
4 Test the remote connection by entering your DDNS address in a web browser.
Step 1 of 4: Port Forwarding
You must port forward the HTTP, Client, and Mobile ports (default: 80, 9000, and 1025) on your router to your DVR’s IP address before you can remotely connect to your system.
There are several methods to port forward your router:
• Use the Lorex Easy Connect Auto Port Forwarding Wizard (PC only) to port forward the required ports (see CD for details). For instructions on how to use the Easy Connect Wizard,
see the Easy Connect manual on the CD.
• Manually port forward the required ports on your router to your DVR’s IP address by following your router manufacturer’s instructions.
[If the above ports are not forwarded on your router, you will not be able to access your system remotely.]
 Step 2 of 4: Create a DDNS Account
Lorex offers a free DDNS service for use with your system. A DDNS account allows you to set up a web site address that points back to your local network. This allows you to connect
to your system remotely. You must create a DDNS account in the same network as your DVR.
