Video is distorted or not
recorded.
Troubleshooting
(continued)
Power does not come on.
Starting up and during operating
• Is the camera cable connected correctly? Check
this while referring to the installation manual.
• Immediately after power-on or when switching
to IR mode, a mechanical operation sound will
be heard. This is not a malfunction of the
camera.
• During zoom, some operation noise will be
heard. This is not a defect.
Picture
(Check this with the Toughbook-Arbitrator Front
End Software.)
• Are camera and video monitoring equipment
connected properly?
• Are both the video input connector selection and
the input selection made with the Toughbook-
Arbitrator Front End Software the same?
• Are the video output settings correct for the
connected equipment? Connect a monitor to the
VIDEO OUT connector on the rear panel of the
recorder and check the picture.
• The IR function was enabled, which results in a
B/W picture.
• Under some circumstances, correct focus may
be difficult to achieve with auto-focusing. A few
examples are listed below:
· The field of view includes both distant and
near objects.
· The camera is shooting through dirty window
glass.
· Ambient lighting is low.
· There are bright and reflective surfaces
around the object.
· The camera is shooting a rapidly moving
object.
· The object has little contrast.
· A close-by object is being shot at high zoom
ratio.
