Camera problems

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys. We have 4 cameras attached to out CP Cam CPD 500w System. The cameras are aslo CP Cam units. When installed, the 2 external cameras, had a number of red leds lights. They have now gone out. The camera's are still coming up on the monitor, however in mono, not colour.

Any ideas

Were these cameras in color previously?

 

The LEDs will normally only turn on when it gets dark out, and if it's a color camera, the camera should switch from color to B&W at that time... if the LEDs aren't coming on, that could mean the driver circuit has failed, or the light sensor has failed (sometimes SOME of the LEDs will fail, but ALL the LEDs themselves failing is highly unlikely). If the camera is staying in night mode, that could also point to a failure of the light sensor.

 

Either way, your best bet is probably just to replace the cameras.
