Cause & Solution
R This is a characteristic of camera lenses and is not a
malfunction.
R When there is a backlight in the place where the Wireless
Camera is located, the person's face becomes dark.
– Adjust the brightness of the display while monitoring.
R The surface of the lens of the Wireless Camera is dirty.
– Clean it with a soft dry cloth.
R The surface of the lens of the Wireless Camera is wet with
dew. Wait for the condensation to evaporate.
R When it is dark, the image brightness is automatically
adjusted in order to make the person's face easier to see.
Although images may appear washed out, this is not a
malfunction.
R The brightness of the display is not properly adjusted.
Adjust the brightness while monitoring.
R Strong light such as sunlight is shining into the lens of the
Wireless Camera. Though this may cause the display
image to become difficult to see, this is not a malfunction.
– Locate the Wireless Camera away from direct sunlight.
R The MOTTLED COLOR PREVENT setting does not match
the power frequency for the region that you are using the
unit in.
– Matching the power frequency for the region that you are
using the unit in can improve the quality of the colors
displayed. When using the unit in a different region (after
moving, etc.), match the settings to that region.
R AC (alternating current) lights such as fluorescent lights
may cause flickering. This is not a malfunction.
R The distance between the Base Unit and Wireless
Camera, or Base Unit and Wireless Monitor is too far, or
there is a concrete wall or other obstruction between the
Base Unit and Wireless Camera, or Base Unit and
Wireless Monitor.
– Move the Base Unit to a location closer to the Wireless
Camera that has no obstructions, or move the Wireless
Monitor to a location closer to the Base Unit that has no
obstructions.
R The date and time are not set. The date and time may be
reset to the default setting after a long periods with the
power plug unplugged or when a power failure occurs.
– Set the current date and time using the Wireless Monitor.
