Problem Solution
No Picture/Signal • Ensure your TV is on the correct input channel.
Common terms of an input channel: INPUT,
AV CHANNEL, LINE1, LINE2, AUX.
• If your camera is connected to a VCR/DVR,
ensure it is properly connected to your TV/
Monitor.
• Ensure connections are properly connected.
• Ensure the camera power supply is plugged
in.
Picture is too bright • Ensure your camera isn’t pointed directly at a
source of light (e.g sun or spot light).
• Slide the sunshade (bullet cameras only)
forward to block excess light.
• Move your camera to a different location.
Picture is too dark • If using during the day, the camera may not
be getting enough light. Slide the sunshade
backwards to let in more light. Check the
brightness and contrast settings of the device
your camera connects to (TV/Monitor/DVR).
Night Vision is not
working
• The night vision activates when light levels
drop. The area may have too much light.

Run Distance
Notes:
1. For optimal performance, consider using option 2 or 3. Preference for using
the same cable type for the entire distance.
2. Cable run recommendation based on typical camera power consumption
(up to 500mA). For specialty cameras with higher current consumption,
maximum cable run may be reduced. Consider providing power to the
camera at the camera side rather then at the end of the extension cable.
3. Indicators that your cable run may be too long:
• Video is permanently Black & White (even during day time)
• Video is distorted

Setup Diagram
Before Installing The Camera
• Decide to run the cables through the wall/ceiling (drilling required), or
along the wall/ceiling.
• If you run the cables along the wall/
ceiling, you must run the cable
through the cable notch on the base.
This will keep the camera base flush
to the wall/ceiling when mounted.
To install the camera:
1. Set the camera in the desired
mounting position and mark
holes for the screws.
2. Drill the holes, then feed the cable through the mounting
surface and mount the camera stand to the desired surface
using the provided screws. Make sure all three screws are
fastened tightly at the connection points.
3. Set the position and angle of the camera using the
provided Allen key.
Cable notch
ATTENTION - Test all connections and ensure the camera is working
correctly prior to permanent installation by temporarily connecting the
camera(s) and cable(s) to the viewing/recording solution.
1) Turn the ring to tighten / loosen
the stand connection. Adjust the
camera’s horizontal position.
2) Loosen the screw and adjust the
camera’s vertical position.
