Troubleshooting 
Problem Solution 
•  Ensure that the camera is powered and the power switch is On (table mount base). 
•  Ensure that the Wireless System Controller is powered and online. 
•  Ensure that you are pressing the Discovery button. 
•  Reposition the camera closer to the Wireless System Controller. 
Camera will not register 
with the Wireless 
System Controller 
•  Try a hard reset by holding down the Discovery button while powering up the camera. 
 
No camera picture 
•  Ensure that the Wireless System Controller is powered and online. 
 
•  Ensure that you have the proper camera selected. 
 
•  Reposition the camera closer to the Wireless System Controller. 
 
Poor picture quality 
•  Ensure that you are using the proper power supply. 
 
•  Make sure the proper camera quality settings are configured when viewing (Motorola 
homesight™ User Guide).  
 
•  Make sure your camera viewing area has proper lighting. 
 
•  Try another location. 
 
•  Select other operating channels on other 2.4 GHz devices. 
•  Be sure there is no conflict with your WiFi network. See the homesight User Guide for 
details. 
 
Motion events are not 
triggered 
•  Ensure that the camera is not positioned behind glass. The motion sensor is triggered 
by changes in heat. Any material such as glass that "insulates” keeps the camera from 
detecting heat changes (movement). 
 
•  Ensure that the camera head is positioned properly. 
 
Audio problems 
•  Make sure the speaker volume is turned up when playing back the video clip. 
 
•  Make sure the sound is within the microphone range (6–10 feet). 
 
 
 
•  Does the computer have a sound card and are the speakers activated and loud 
enough?
