 16Troubleshooting If you have problems with the system, there is often a quick and simple solution. Please try the following: Problem Solution No picture from a camera 1. Check all connections to the camera. Make sure the adaptor is plugged in. 2. Make sure that the receiver is ON. 3. Make sure that the camera is in range of the receiver. The picture is dropping 1. Move the camera closer to the receiver. 2. Try repositioning the camera, receiver or both to improve the reception. Audio problems 1. Increase the volume when there is no sound. 2. Make sure that there is sound within range of the camera microphone. 3. If the unit emits a loud screeching noise (audio feedback), move the camera or receiver farther apart. The picture is or has become choppy The picture may become choppy when experiencing a lower frame rate (i.e. 10 frames per second vs. a higher 20 frames per second).Try moving the camera closer to the receiver. Remove obstructions between the receiver and camera. The Picture appears to be grainy when using AV out function to   view on a large screen TV/Monitor The purpose of the AV output is for convenience only. When using with large screen TV/Monitor, the picture might be grainy as the camera limits video resolution to VGA (640x480 pixels). This is not a product defect. 1. For best performance use with TV/Monitor PIP (Picture in Picture) function. Check your TV/Monitor product manual to see if this featureis available on your TV/Monitor. 2. View video on a smaller screen TV/Monitor. Recording Problems 1. Make sure the SD card is inserted to SD card slot correctly. 2. Check the SD card is not full of memory. 3. Make sure the size of SD card is compatible with the system. The system can support up to 16GB SD card.
