A Troubleshooting A Prior to calling Honeywell technical support, refer to the following topics for possible solutions to problems with your ONVIF camera. To contact the Honeywell Video Systems technical support team, call 1-800-323-4576 (North America only) or send an e-mail to https://www.honeywellsystems.com/ss/techsupp/index.html. See the back cover for international contact information.
| Embedded Network Video Recorder User Guide Problem: The NVR cannot detect the hard disk Possible solutions: • Check the HDD cable connection. • Check the HDD and HDD ribbon. They might be damaged and require replacement. • Replace the Main board SATA port. Problem: The real-time video color is distorted Possible solutions: • Check the NTSC and PAL setup when using the BNC output. If this setup is incorrect, the real-time video appears black and white.
Troubleshooting | 215 Problem: You can not log into the NVR or web client Possible solutions: • Upgrade to Windows 2000 SP4 from Windows 98 or Windows ME if you are using them on your system. Or you can install a client-end software of a lower version. Note The NVR is not compatible with Windows VISTA. • Check the ActiveX settings. ActiveX might have been disabled. See Figure 5-2 on page 146. • The display card driver might be inadequate (lower than dx8.1). Upgrade the display card driver.
| Embedded Network Video Recorder User Guide Problem: You have forgotten the local menu operation password or network password Possible solution: Contact your local service engineer or sales engineer for help. Problem: There is no video; the screen is black Possible solutions: • Check and correct the IP camera’s IP address. • Check and correct the IP camera’s port number. • Check and correct the IP camera’s account user name and password. • Check the physical connections.
B Daily Maintenance B • Please use a brush to clean the board, socket connector and the chassis regularly. • Carefully ground the NVR to protect from audio/video disturbances. Keep the NVR away from static voltage or induced voltage. • Please unplug the power cable when you remove the audio/video signal cable, RS232, or RS485 cable. • Always properly shut down the device. Please press the power button in the front panel for at least three seconds to shut down the device.
