If your Night Owl Network Hardware system isn't receiving power, start by checking that the cable from the power adapter is securely connected at both ends. Also, ensure the power adapter is properly plugged into the back of the unit. If the cables are secure, but the system still won't power on, make sure the system is actually turned on (look for lit LED indicators). If connected through a power bar or surge protector, try plugging directly into a wall outlet. Verify the outlet has power by testing it with another device, like a phone charger, or try a different outlet.

If your Night Owl Network Hardware's hard drive is full and the unit has stopped recording, log in to your NVR. Then, go to the Hard Drive menu and make sure the 'Overwrite' option is enabled. This setting allows the system to record over older footage, preventing the drive from becoming full.

If your Night Owl Network Hardware system isn't detecting the mouse, first, ensure the mouse cable is securely plugged into the USB Mouse port on the front panel. If it's still not working, power off the system by disconnecting the power cable. Then, firmly connect the USB mouse to the USB Mouse port on the front panel and reconnect the power cable to the DC 19V port on the rear panel to power it back on.
