Use 3 X10 cameras with CR12a remote. All of a sudden my # 1 camera can not be turned on. 2 & 3 are working ok. I did change the batteries in the remote so they are fresh. Also the Off function does not work from the remote?  B:(

Try changing the address of camera 2 or 3 to 1 and see if they can be controlled. That will see if the CR12A is functioning on camera 1s address.
You may also want to test camera 1 on 2 or 3. If it doesn't work on any of the addresses. Its power supply maybe defective.

My guess would be a new noise generator or signal sucker on the power line, since that's where the camera power supply gets its on / off signal from.

In the real world, the only constant is change.

When I'm online you can find me in the Home Automation Chat Room!

When testing should all cameraa be unplug and then set each camera to 1 to try out?  B:(

You don't have to.  Just make sure each has a different address.
