  Allison MoralesAug 7, 2025
  If there's no picture on your monitor/TV after connecting it to the Lorex DVR, first power off the monitor/TV and the DVR. Then, power on the monitor/TV, followed by the DVR. Also, make sure you've selected the correct input channel on your monitor/TV for the DVR connection. Check that the video cable is securely connected to both the DVR and the monitor/TV. If the video-out resolution is incorrect, press and hold the button on the remote control until the DVR restarts, which will reset the resolution to the default setting (1024x768).

- A
  Amy MartinezAug 12, 2025
  If your Lorex DVR system isn't receiving power or powering up, check that all cables are correctly and securely connected, including the power adapter at the back of the unit. Ensure the system is powered on by checking the LED indicators on the front. If connected through a power bar or surge protector, try connecting the power adapter directly to the wall outlet. Confirm the outlet has power by testing it with another device or trying a different outlet.
