Title: Multi-View
Post by: Squirrel1162 on January 17, 2011, 09:26:51 PM

I have 2 cameras.  One on a pan-tilt base watching the front of my home.  The other is w/o the pan-tilt base watching rear of my home.  One time when I go to see what is going on outside, I don't have a problem with them.  I can switch back and forth between them and everything is fine.  However, other times I cannot get an image from either camera.  I try rebooting the program and even my system (Windows 7 on a Toshiba laptop), to no avail.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

Wireless cameras are controlled by power line signals.
As you may know in groups of four Unit Codes 1-4,5-8,9-12 and 13-16 and the same House Code.
Turn one On and the others go Off.

One thought would be power line signal problems.
Like if you turned one On but it didn't see the On it would stay Off. While the one that was On turned off because it saw the other cameras On command.
Another thought. Both where Off and neither received the On command.
