server.

camera may not be assigned an IP address due to network 
failures. Ask your ISP or network administrator for more 
information.

Check if the indicator control is disabled (see page 96 of the 
Operating Instructions on the CD-ROM).

• Confirm that the standard AC adaptor (Order No. PQLV206Y) is 

being used.

The indicator 
continues 
blinking red.

• The camera may be malfunctioning.

If you cannot access the camera, the camera may be 
malfunctioning. Call our customer call center.

[For BL-C20A]

To enable the MAC address filtering feature on the wireless
