What to do if there is no picture on monitor/TV after connecting it to the Lorex DVR?
- D
  Dr. Roger Thompson MDAug 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).

Why is my Lorex DVR system not receiving power or not powering up?
- E
  Elizabeth EstesAug 11, 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.

What to do if hard drive is full (0%) and the Lorex DVR unit is no longer recording?
- D
  durankatieAug 16, 2025
  If the hard drive on your Lorex DVR is full and the unit stops recording, it might be because the overwrite function isn't enabled. To fix this, go to the Main Menu, select DEVICE, then HDD. Under Overwrite, select Auto and click Apply.
