Q- Why isn’t there any video on some or all inputs?
A- Make sure all the connections are correct (see Figure 4). The Output Connector is black; it
must be connected to your monitoring device. Make sure all your inputs are connected and
enabled (switches 7-8). Make sure the dwell time is properly set (switches 1-6).
Q- Why is the rotation order scrambled?
A- The inputs rotate in numerical order 1, 2, 3, 4. Make sure all the connections are correct (see
Figure 4).
Q- Why isn’t one of my cameras in the rotation?
A- The input may be disabled; make sure switches 7-8 are properly set (both ON enables all
inputs). Make sure all the connections are correct (see Figure 4). Make sure the camera is
properly functioning.
Q- Can I set it up for only 1 input?
A- No, 2 inputs is the minimum.
Q- Can I stop the rotation on 1 input?
A- No, the unit is always in rotation mode.
Q- Why does it seem like it’s stuck on one input? Why isn’t it rotating?
A- The dwell time may be set for a long duration (up to 63 seconds); make sure switches 1-6 are
properly set. Try 1-4 OFF and 5-6 ON for 3 second dwell.
Q- Why doesn’t the dwell time or input number change after I move the switches?
A- Power must be re-cycled before any change in switch settings take effect. If you disconnect
power before removing the End Plate or handling the circuit board and manipulating the
switches then you will not have this problem; the changes will take effect as soon as you
reconnect power. Applying power with the case open and the circuit board exposed also
increases the risk of damage to the unit.
