Troubleshooting

Image

• The monitor shows no image

1. Ensure that the camera power supply is connected, the voltage is normal, and the power indicator is always on.
2. Turn off the power switch to check that the camera is self-testing.
3. Ensure the cable of video platform and TV that in correct connection.

• Image jitters after the camera is properly connected

1. Ensure that the camera installation is in stable position.
2. Check that any vibrating machinery or object near the camera.

• There is no video image in browser
  IE browser does not support H5, you need to use VLC plug-in to view videos. Please access VLC website (http://www.videolan.org/vlc) to download and install the 32-bit VLC media player, after installation, the video image will be displayed normally when access the camera. Other mainstream browsers already support H5 and do not need to install the VLC plug-in.

• Unable to access through the browser

1. Using PC to access the network to test that the network access can work properly to eliminate the network fault caused by cable and PC virus until the PC and camera can ping each other.
2. Disconnect the network, connect camera with PC separately and reset the IP address of PC if necessary.
3. Ensure that the IP address, subnet mask and gateway settings is correct.
4. Check that the MAC address is conflicts.
5. Check that the web port is modified, the default setting is 80.

• Forget the IP address or login password
  The default IP address is: 192.168.100.88; the default username and password are: admin.

Control

• Remote control does not work

1. Check and replace with new batteries.
2. Ensure that the camera working mode is correct.
3. Ensure that the address key of remote control can match the camera.

• Serial port cannot control

1. Ensure that the protocol, address and bit rate of the camera are consistent.
2. Ensure that the control cable is properly connected.
