Fixing Camera Problems (Black Screen, Wrong Angle, Out of Focus)

Created by Nuway Engineer, Modified on Tue, 3 Mar at 1:21 PM by Nuway Engineer

Use this guide if:
A room camera is black, frozen, pointing at the wrong place, or looks blurry.


1. Simple fixes

  1. Make sure the camera’s power light is on.
  2. If it has a privacy shutter, make sure it’s open.
  3. Restart the camera by unplugging and reconnecting it if possible.

2. Check which camera is selected

On the room’s control screen:

  • Make sure the correct camera is chosen
  • If in Microsoft Teams:
    • Go to Settings → Devices → Camera and choose the right one.

3. If the camera is pointing at the wrong seat

  • Try pressing the correct preset (1, 2, 3, etc.).
  • If it still looks wrong, reposition it with on‑screen controls.

4. Focus issues

  • Most PTZ cameras auto‑focus.
  • If the picture stays blurry, restart the camera.

When to contact support

  • Camera keeps going offline.
  • Camera stays black only when using Teams.
  • Presets keep changing on their own.
