Troubleshooting
Camera not displaying video
Ensure the BNC cable is securely connected to both the camera and the DVR. Verify that the DVR is powered on and the correct input channel is selected. Check that the camera is receiving power. Test with a known working camera if possible.
Poor image quality or blurry footage
Clean the camera lens with a soft, lint-free cloth. Ensure the camera is properly focused (if adjustable) and not obstructed by dirt, cobwebs, or foliage. Check the cable for damage.
Night vision not activating or is weak
Confirm the camera is set to day/night mode. Ensure the IR LEDs are not obstructed. Check if the ambient light level is sufficient to prevent activation or if there's a strong light source directly facing the sensor, which might interfere. Verify the camera's power supply is adequate.
Motion detection not triggering recordings
Ensure the True Detect™ feature is enabled in the DVR settings. Adjust the motion detection sensitivity and zone settings on the DVR. Verify that the PIR sensor is not blocked and that the target (person/vehicle) is within the detection range (10m).
Camera offline after a power outage
Allow the system to fully reboot after power restoration. Check all power connections for the camera and DVR. Ensure the network connection (if applicable via DVR) is stable.

Care:
To maintain optimal performance, regularly clean the camera lens with a soft, dry cloth. For outdoor units, ensure the housing is free from debris, dust, and cobwebs. Periodically check cable connections for security and signs of wear. The camera's weatherproof design requires no special maintenance beyond basic cleaning, but inspect for any damage after severe weather events. Operating temperature range is -30°C to 55°C (-22°F to 131°F).
