IN SAYING THIS IM ASSUMING YOU ARE VIEWING VIDEO VIA EITHERNET CONNECTOR ON UNIT, TRY DIRECTLY CONNECTING A MONITOR TO UNIT , SEE THEN WHAT IT SAYS ?

CHECK POWER SUPPLY TO THAT CAMMERA ALSO IF WIRELESS MOVE CLOSER TO BASE UNIT SEE IF THAT HELPS ANY

MOST LIKELY A DEAD/DYING PIXEL SECTION OF CAMMERA TRY SUBSTITUTING IT OUT WITH ANOTHER TO MAKE SURE OF PROBLEM

CK CABLES FOR TIGHT AND CORRECT CONNECTIONS

CAMMERA DESTROYED !! MOTION LIGHTS USE 120 VOLT AC POWER CAMERAS USE 12 VOLT DC POWER WRONG TYPE AND AMOUNT OF POWER !!!

THIS COULD BE A FEW THINGS I CAN THINK OF 1ST ARE CAMERAS WIRELESS ? IF SO SOMETHING COULD COME ON INTERMITTANTLY AND BLOCK SIGNAL FROM GETTING TO BASE UNIT, IF THIS IS SO ONLY A SPECTRUM ANALIZER WILL BE ABLE TO TELL YOU WHAT IT IS . SECOND IF NOT WIRELESS CK YOUR RECORD SETTINGS IN SETUP YOU MIGHT BE OVER TASKING HD DRIVE , VIDEO CAPTURE ONCE PER SECOND IS NORMAL ANY FASTER IS NOT NEEDED UNIT WON'T HOLD VIDEO IF HD IS BUSY WRITING SO IT DROPS SECONDS OFF FINAL RECORD

COULD POWER TO THAT CAMMERA BEEN CUT OFF ? QUICK TEST AT NITE LOOK CLOSELY AT CAMMERA LENS SEE IF YOU SEE A LIGHT PINK/RED TINT TO IT, no THEN POWER IS OFF OR UNIT IS DEFECTIVE

INDUSTRY STANDARD WIRE CODE COLORS FOR CAMMERAS ARE AS FOLLOWS RED- POWER SUPPLY POSITIVE BLACK - POWER SUPPLY NEGATIVE WHITE- VIDEO CENTER YELLOW- AUDIO CENTER THE SHIELDS ON VIDEO AND AUDIO HAVE TO BE JUMPERED TO BLACK - POWER SUPPLY NEGATIVE NEVER ALLOW POWER SUPPLY POSITIVE TO TOUCH VIDEO OR AUDIO LEADS

THE MOUSE HAS A usb PLUG ON IT'S END JUST TRY IT INTO ANY PC TO SEE IT WORKS , IF SO YOU HAVE A DEFECTIVE BASE UNIT
