CAMERA TROUBLESHOOTING
If you do not see video from a camera: 1. Check to ensure that the camera is connected to a Video-In port. 2. Check the individual cable connections - both video and power. 3. Connect the camera to a different video-in port to determine if the problem
is with a camera or a cable. Switch one element (camera, or cable, or power supply) at a time to isolate the problem.
