The Appro DVR-3016 may be showing a blank black screen and indicating it is not online due to an unsuccessful connection. This can happen if the hardware or software installation was not completed correctly. The manual suggests rechecking all installation steps (steps 1 to 5) to ensure proper setup. If the issue persists after verification, the connection has not been successfully established.
