Troubleshooting the Codes
- 0x00: Check in Settings > System > Auto Maintain to ensure that the DVR is not set to reboot.
- 0x01: This one is the hardest one to diagnose. We recommend updating the firmware to the most recent version, hard resetting the DVR, and ensuring the DVR is receiving consistent power.
- 0x02: Clear the log. Go to Information > Log and click Clear.
- 0x03: Check in Settings > Storage > HDD Manage and look at the Status. If it is not "Normal", it is likely that there is a hard drive error and it needs to be replaced.
- 0x04: Check all of the camera connections and ensure they are powered correctly.
- 0x05: Check in Settings > Storage > HDD Manage and look at the Status. If it is not "Normal", it is likely that there is a hard drive error and it needs to be replaced.
