Possible solutions

Network problem:

  • Check that the controller and thermal camera are correctly connected to the network. (Note: This may be a direct connection or via a network switch.)

  • Check the status of the network switch.

  • Check that the network cables are free from damage.

Control conflict, e.g. caused by multiple users at different stations:

Ensure that no other controllers are in use at the same time.

Problem with the controller:

  • Check power / network cabling to the controller and PoE injector (PoE only used with optional Joystick Control Unit).

  • Check other controllers (if available). If other controllers are operating, this will eliminate the possibility of a more fundamental camera fault.
