8 Troubleshooting

Image

The monitor shows no image

• Check that the camera power supply is connected, the voltage is normal, and the power indicator light is always on.
• Turn off the power switch to check whether the camera is self-testing.
• Check the cable of the video platform and TV for correct connection.

The video image displayed by the camera lens is jittery

• Check whether the camera's installed position is stable.
• Check for vibrating machinery or objects near the camera.

There is no video image in Browser

Internet Explorer (IE) browser does not support H5. You may need to use a VLC plug-in to view videos. Visit www.videolan.org/vlc to download and install the 32-bit VLC media player. After installation, the camera should display normally. Other mainstream browsers already support H5 and do not require the VLC plug-in.

Unable to access camera through Browser

• Using a PC, test network access to ensure it works properly. Rule out PC virus issues first, then verify PC and camera communication via Ping.
• Disconnect the network, connect the camera and PC separately, and reset the PC's IP address.
• Check the camera's IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings.
• Check for MAC address conflicts.
• Verify that the web port has not been modified (default web port is 80).

Forget the IP address or login password

Remember the default settings: IP address: 192.168.100.88; default username: admin; default password: admin.

Control

Remote control cannot control

• Check and replace the battery in the remote controller.
• Verify the camera's working mode is correct.
• Ensure the remote control's address matches the camera's address.

Serial port cannot control

• Confirm that the camera protocol, address, and baud rate are the same.
• Check that the control line is connected properly.
