Troubleshooting

I can't control the camera.

●Check that the RS-232C cable for camera control is connected correctly. (→ P.25)

●Check that the VB101 control port for the corresponding camera is set correctly. (→ P.33)

●Check that the VB101 camera control is not restricted (→ P.55).

●Check to see if the camera angle is restricted by a preset (see p. 47).

●If you have changed the baud rate for the serial port on the camera, ensure that the camera control baud rate setting on the VB101 matches the camera settings (→ P.43).

I forgot the password.

●You will have to return the VB101 to a service center. Please contact your Canon dealer.

I cannot record or search pictures.

●Check that the flash memory card has been inserted properly. (→ P.27)

●When the number of recorded pictures exceeds the limit, erase pictures that you do not need or replace the memory card.

●Check that the camera is on and the cable has been connected properly. (→ P.25)

●A maximum of 32K bytes can be recorded for each picture. Reduce video capture size or lower the video quality. (→ P.48)

●If there is an error in the search results, try to recover the index (/card/images/index.vbi). Click on the "Rebuild" button (Rebuilding the recorded picture list) on the Administration tools page to recover the index (→ P.59).
