Camera Troubleshooting
I cannot see at night 
with my IR night vision 
cameras
• The night vision turns on automatically when light levels drop. Try the camera
in a pitch black setting. The areas that it is in may have too much light and may 
not activate the sensor.
My camera is not 
displaying any image
•Verify the connections are snug and tight fitting. Disconnect and reconnect
each connection. 4pin/4pin, power/power, RCA/RCA.
• Make sure the power adapter is plugged in to an active electrical outlet.
If everything is connected, cup your hands around the camera lens and you 
should see the red LEDs illuminate. Make sure it is dark enough to activate the 
light sensor.
• If the LEDs do not illuminate, try switching the power adapter with a working
camera’s power adapter. This will indicate if it is the power adapter which 
needs to be replaced.
• Verify the pins on the 4pin din connection are not bent and are being properly
inserted to the proper connector.
• If no power/video signal even with the new power adapter, connect the
camera that is in question to a working cable set. (Disconnect a working 
camera and connect the camera in question to that cable set) The camera 
should function correctly. If the camera functions correctly the test indicates 
that there is a bad cable.
My camera is being 
displayed in black and 
white. 
• Night vision mode does not display color only black and white. Make sure
there is enough lighting in the room to check if color is working. 
• Power cycle the DVR by pressing the power switch to the off position. Leave
for 10 seconds and power on again. If the cameras still display in black and 
white try replacing the power supply for the B/W camera with a properly 
working camera’s power supply.

/ electrical noise / 
interference. 
• Try replacing the power supply with a properly working camera’s power supply.
• Test the camera out on a different 60ft cable set. The video signal could be
getting disrupted by a different power source. If the cables are being run 
parallel to electrical lines or near other electrical devices try and reposition the 
camera (and cable) to avoid these sources
The camera is not 
displayed on the Live 
Display screen. It is just 
4 blue boxes
• Check all connections to make sure they are secure and properly connected.
• Check your power supply to ensure that the camera is powered up
