Installation error: Please don't place the camera next to the wall or towards something reflective, they reflect light strongly, so you will not see anything in night vision; Please don't turn the camera toward a very empty place or a large area, there would not be enough reflected light so that you won't see anything in night vision; Please don't place the camera indoors toward the window; the window glass will reflect the infrared light to the camera lens, so you won't see anything in night vision.

Solution: Please adjust the camera angle or change the camera's position.

A: That is because your TV/Monitor doesn’t support Full HD picture, please change another  TV, or connect the NVR system to TV/Monitor by VGA cable, the video resolution transmit by VGA is lower than HD picture.

If the above problem occurs in the case of VGA connection, please use HDMI to connect the system with TV, go into System setup>> Screen setup, use drop-down box to select a lower resolution for VGA resolution that your computer monitor supports, then use VGA to connect the system with your computer monitor.
