[FADCA] Restart device

[D. Calder]

When I had that issue with my cameras, I gave them less bandwidth and it
solved my issue. Just a thought...

Folks,
Thank you for all of the recommendations I ended up going into Home Depot
and purchasing a digital timer, I have the thing turn off at 00h00 and turn
back on at 00h01, problem resolved. I have a bunch of TrendNEt
TV-IP110 setup around a building. The cameras talk to a ZoneMinder box which
captures anything strange onto hard disk. The cameras will run for about 7 -
15 days and then start dropping the video, you can get into the camera
remotely and navigate to the 'tools' page, select reboot, click wait 30
seconds and you have your video back. There must be a memory leak somewhere
or something is going to sleep. They do it ran- domly, the quick fix is just
to power down the whole camera circuit (they are on a UPS and all on a
separate circuit that is powered by the UPS) so I put the timer between the
UPS and the cameras, now I will see how it goes. I hope that takes care of
my problem.

I remember one little box in particular that we used on the BBS gear, I do
not remember what it was but I recall that we would let it power the system
down in the wee hours of the morning then power it back up.
