Note: The DV5000 and the camcorder can be detected only when they are
powered on. If powered down, system will delete them automatically.
6.0 Troubleshooting
If you experience a ‘no signal’ condition with the DV5000’s outputs, first make
certain that the signal being fed to its inputs is acceptable.
Disconnect the cables from the DV5000’s inputs and connect them directly to an
appropriate monitoring device. If you do not see or hear a signal the problem
may well be the signal source itself. Also check that the AC outlet you have used
to power the DV5000 is actually providing power as a wall switch often controls
an AC outlet.
The second most common problem is forcing the unit to believe that a signal is
one type of format when, in reality, it is another. For this reason, we recommend
that you allow the DV5000 to auto-detect the input signal to make certain the unit
can do a proper conversion.
Another problem with the DV5000 revolves around the cables. Inspect the cables
for loose connectors or cable damage such as crushed cables or cables with cuts
or nicks. Replace any cable exhibiting these problems.
You also must use the highest quality cables if you want to achieve the best
results. Poor quality cables will cause poor quality signals.
