Check
• Check the power cable connection. If using a PoE switch to supply power to the
camera using an Ethernet cable, check the Ethernet cable connection.
• Check the power outlet. If using a PoE switch to supply power to the camera
using an Ethernet cable, check the PSE device's power supply.
Check the grounding status of the I/O device connected to the camera and the PoE
switch. If they are not grounded, ground them and try again.
• Check the camera's power status.
• Ensure that cables are properly connected to the camera and the lens.
• Check the network connection status of the computer and the network camera.
• Make sure the lens is clean. If not, clean it using a soft piece of cloth or a brush.
• Make sure the lens is in focus. Adjust the focus during daytime.
• If there is too much light coming into the camera or the camera is picking up an
overly bright light source, adjust the camera's position/angle accordingly.
Check the white balance settings. If using the Auto option, it may take some time
for the white balance to be adjusted.
If the camera is pointed at the sun or a fluorescent lamp, adjust the camera's angle
away.
You must perform a factory reset. A factory reset will revert all settings, including
network settings, to their factory defaults. After performing a factory reset, make a
memo of the admin ID and password as a safety precaution.
If the IDIS Web login screen is not loading, check which version of Microsoft Internet
Explorer you are using. IDIS Web may not launch properly on versions 8.0 or below.
