  • Verify the monitor input source is correctly selected.
• Cameras Not Displaying:
  • Ensure cameras are properly connected to the NVR's PoE ports.
  • Check Ethernet cables for damage or loose connections.
  • Verify cameras are powered on (PoE should provide power).
  • Ensure cameras are compatible with the NVR.
• No Remote Access:
  • Ensure the NVR is connected to your router via the LAN port.
  • Check your network connection and internet access.
  • Verify NVR network settings (IP address, gateway, DNS).
  • Ensure the "Guard Viewer" app or "Guard Station" software is correctly configured with the NVR's details.
