Troubleshoo nts and ps
Poor Picture: Realign antennas until image quality improves, slightly adjust the
position of the Camera or Receiver. Change the location of the Camera to allow the
minimum of solid objects such as Walls between it and the receiver as illustrated at the
bottom of the page. Try changing to one of the other channels using the instructions on
the previous page and check the signal quality again.
Lines only: no clear picture: Check to confirm there is no microwave oven or other
2.4GHZ equipment operating close by ie; Cordless Telephones, Wireless Baby
Monitors, Wireless LAN equipment etc . Make sure the Receiver is on the correct
channel for the particular camera.
Picture ghosting or interference: Some home appliances such as Wireless LANs,
2.4GH2 portable telephones and Microwave ovens operate on or near the 2.4GHz
frequency. Ifyou receive interference from such an appliance, try moving the Camera
or Receiver to location further away from the appliance or in the event of interference
from a Wireless LAN device, try changing the Wireless LAN to a different channel to
improve the signal quality.
No picture: check the receiver to confirm it is powered and make sure theAN
connection of the Receiver is not plugged into the Audio Out socket. Make sure the
Receiver is on the correct channel. Check to ensure the camera is plugged in and has
power. Check that the channel on the receiver is the set to the same as the camera
you Wish to view.
Red haze over picture: In some cases where the sun shines into the front of the
camera a faint red glow can be seen. Move the camera to a shaded location, or fit a
hood to stop sunlight entering the camera lens directly
Foreground is dark while background is too bright: If the camera is looking from a
dark area towards a light area in some cases the automatic exposure can find it
difficult to balance the image correctly. Change the location of the camera so that the
point of greatest interest has the largest area of the image (if you Want to see the
bright area. move the camera so that almost all ofthe screen shows this area. If you
want to see the darker area, move the camera so that most ofthe image shows this
area)
