- Check whether the camera can "self-test" after startup. You can also press [*] > [#] >
- [Auto Focus] on the IR remote to trigger the camera to perform the startup dance on repeat.
- If using SDI or HDMI, check that the desired connection is selected to output video. You can select the desired connection from the OSD Menu or through the Web Interface.
- Check that the video cable is connected correctly to th destination device
• Image is shaky or vibrating
- Check whether the camera is mounted solidly or sitting on a steady horizontal and level surface.
- Check the building and any supporting furniture for vibration. Ceiling mounts are often affected by building vibration more than wall mounts.
- Any external vibration that is affecting the camera will be more apparent when zoomed in.
• Abnormal display of image
- Check the resolution dial on the back of the camera. Verify that the resolution and refresh rate is supported by your destination device.
- If using SDI, check that the SDI level is set to the desired level.
• Image settings are changing on their own
- The cameras have a feature called "Preset 2.0" where many of the Exposure, White Balance, and Image settings are saved with each preset. When a preset is called, the saved Exposure, White Balance, and Image settings are then loaded.
Control
- IR remote controller does not control the camera
- Does one of the four "Camera Select" buttons at the top of the remote light up when you press any of the buttons?
- If not, change the batteries in the remote.
-
Check that the remote and camera are on the same IR channel. The "Camera Select" buttons will light up with the selected IR channel when a button is pressed. You can change the camera's IR channel by accessing the System Settings of the web interface.
-
Try removing other sources of IR interface (sunlight, fluorescent lighting, etc.)
- Serial communication does not control the camera
-
Verify that the RS232 / RS485 cable is connected correctly and using the proper pinout. Verify the communication settings of the control software / device (e.g. joystick).
-
Verify that the communication port on the controlling device is active (e.g. Com port on 3. PC).
-
Verify that the communication settings in the camera's OSD Menu match the communication settings of the controlling software / device.
• IP communication does not control the camera
-
Verify that the camera and controlling device are on the same LAN with unique IP addresses.
-
Verify that the controlling device is using the appropriate control port for the protocol. The default control ports are as follows: TCP 5678, UDP 1259, Sony UDP: 52381, NDI: 5961
