If O.K., then:
If using a non-Bosch power supply:
– Check that the mains power to the power supply box is on.
If O.K., then:
– Check that there is 24 V output from the transformer.
– Check the connector on top of the AutoDome housing for bent pins.
If O.K., then:
– Check the integrity of all wires and terminal connections to the AutoDome.
If O.K., then:
If there is power to the AutoDome, then:
– Remove the camera and CPU modules from the AutoDome housing and check that the
Green LED on the housing power supply board is on.
If the Green LED is off, then:

if an extra camera module is available.)
