Possible Solution

Check that all components in the system (monitor,
cameras, VCRs, multiplexers, etc.) have power and
are turned on.

Check that the camera lens cap is removed and the
lens is set to proper aperture.

Check coaxial cable(s) for proper connections and
condition.

Make certain the

 control

knobs are not turned to their extreme positions.

Connect a known good video source directly to the
monitor to make certain the monitor is not the

monitor, make certain that a cable is NOT
connected to the loop-through connector.
