Troubleshooting

No video signal or poor image quality

Verify that the coaxial cable is securely connected at both the camera and DVR ends. Ensure the correct signal type (TVI/AHD/CVI/CVBS) is selected on the DVR. Check if the power supply is adequate and correctly connected.

No audio detected

Confirm that the DVR supports audio over coaxial cable and that the feature is enabled in the DVR settings. Ensure the coaxial cable is properly terminated and undamaged.

Camera image is always black and white at night

Check the camera's IR settings via the DVR. Ensure the white light feature is enabled if color night vision is desired. Verify that the ambient light is sufficient for the camera to switch out of IR mode.

Camera is not recording despite power connection

Confirm the DVR is functioning correctly and has available recording capacity (e.g., hard drive space). Check the DVR's recording schedule and ensure the camera channel is enabled for recording.
