What software and hardware are you using to control all the cameras?

What are the power supply addresses of all five of the cameras?

Make sure the transmit channel switch under the rubber plug on the color camera matches the A-D Channel Switch on the receiver.

Sounds like the color camera is not in the Unit Code group of four. 1-4;5-8;9-12 and 13-16.
That would mean an added task has to happen. Turn off all four of the one group and turn on the color camera.

The VR36A receiver is in most kits and should work with color and low light cameras.

Glad to hear it was a simple fix and it is now working.
