Solution
•
Check power to the Camera. Make sure the adapter is
plugged in and the red LED light on the power adapter is on
•
Make sure that the Cameras and Receiver are both ON.
•
Make sure that the camera is in range of the Receiver.
•
Make sure that each camera is within range, and that there
are no large obstructions or interference
•
Try repositioning the camera, receiver or both to improve the
reception.
•
Move the camera closer to the receiver.
•
Try repositioning the camera, receiver or both to improve the
reception.
•
The picture may become choppy when experiencing a lower
frame rate (i.e. 10 frames per second vs. a higher 20 frames
per second).
•
Try moving the camera closer to the receiver.
•
Remove obstructions between the Receiver and Camera
•
Try switching to QVGA mode. Resolution will be reduced but
video frame rate will increase
•
When using with large screen TV/Monitor (especially high-
definition televisions), the picture might be grainy as the
camera limits video resolution to VGA (640x480 pixels). This
is not a product defect.
•
For best performance use with TV/Monitor PIP (Picture in
Picture) function. Check your TV/Monitor product manual to
see if this feature is available on your TV/Monitor
•
View video on a smaller screen TV/Monitor
•
Consider increasing the range of the wireless signal with an
accessory antenna (see page 17)
•
Common situation know as "washout" or "whitewash" where
a strong light source is pointed at the camera lens. The
camera lens IS NOT harmed during a whitewash.
•
DO NOT point your camera towards a light source
•
The system has encountered an error with the SD card.
Power off the receiver, remove then re-insert the SD card,
and then power the receiver back on
•
If "Er" still appears on the OSD, format the SD card
•
The Lock may be engaged. On the right panel of the receiver,
slide the lock away from the SD card slot
•
If the lock is disengaged but the buttons still do not function,
power the receiver off then power it back on
•
The 1, 2, 3, and 4 buttons jump to their respective channels
while in Quad Mode; press the CHANNEL—M button on the
remote control or the receiver to change channels manually
