5. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your XMARTO NVR.
5.1 Camera Pairing Issues
- Symptom: Cameras fail to connect wirelessly to the NVR.
- Solution:
- Ensure cameras are powered on and within range of the NVR or another camera acting as a relay.
- If the NVR's WiFi information (ESSID and password) was previously changed, this can prevent wireless pairing. Consider performing a WiFi reset in the NVR's settings to revert to original ESSID info, then attempt pairing. Alternatively, use an Ethernet cable to pair the camera initially.
- Refer to the XMARTO support website for detailed camera pairing guides: Camera Pairing FAQ.
5.2 Screen Goes to Sleep / Still Picture
- Symptom: The NVR screen displays a still image or goes blank after a short period, even during live view.

5.3 Mobile App Connectivity Issues
- Symptom: Unable to connect to the NVR via the mobile app or experience frequent disconnections.
- Solution:
- Ensure the NVR has a stable internet connection (either wired or via its second WiFi module).
