Why the blinking red lights do not work on all my cameras?

did you put in the double AA batteries provided into the battery compartment on the cam??

It is possible that some corrosion has developed around the battery contacts. Open the battery compartment, ensure that the contacts are all clean and put a little Vaseline on them before reinserting a new battery. That should fix it. The reason for Vaseline is to prevent corrosion. Hope that helps.

the receiver has to have the red light on the front blinking. If yours does not have a slow blink than hold down the button on the front just below the light. It should blink quickly for a few times than go out and start blinking slowly. the RFN should work then.

The red light blinking is low toner indicator. Make sure you removed the paper strip.

You will only see red LED's when in a dark room. The sensor does not turn them on until it senses darkness. Additionally, your cameras needs to be 850nm to use this unit.

Pretty sure I remember it flashing red at night when it takes pics . Can't remember what I does in the day.

Mine must be newer. After fiddling with it for a while, I discovered that the red light is the reset button, and you have to push it with a pen or something and hold it down for a few seconds until it starts to flash then release it.

This is a common issue with this model. Count the number of times it blinks. It is most likely that one of the internal boards need to be replaced. At least this was the case for the one I bought.

I bought one. I didn't have any trouble finding the settings in the A7 menu and my battery is installed properly without the plastic interrupter strip and I couldn't get it to work. If they shipped it with a dead battery, shame on them. I don't have another. Where is the camera reading the IR signal? Through the lens? Are you supposed to see a light on the front of the remote when you push the button?

No, there is no off / on switch. They use 2 C cells, to blink a red LED, but is not necessary to use...real working cameras do not use blinking lights.

Mine still has the blinking light. I have the exact same one I bought two years ago, and this one I just bought a month ago. Both blink.

i dont know i've been having issues with mine but it could be the batteries or user error. i got the test light to work, but doesn't seem to want to trigger my 550ex canon flash or my vivitar 283's. but they do trigger my photogenics so....

Try resetting the camera. You might also try connecting the charger cord to see if a charge jolt would make a difference.

The remote works fine with my Nex-7. Make sure you have set the camera to respond to the remote (menu button -> Camera -> Drive Mode -> Remote Cdr.). The remote must be aimed at the front of the camera (at least on the Nex-7). If it still doesn't work then try reversing the battery. There is no blinking light on the remote.

That is true..... most of the real security cameras do not have a blinking light. Thus if you use these fake cameras, you might not want to install batteries. However.. this camera is very cheesey and fake looking. Better to get the empty shell of a real security camera for only about $14.00

Try a new battery. Mine has worked fine. Be sure camera is set on remote connection so the remote and camera "see" each other.

I have only experienced this with LED bulbs on a different light housing. I'd recommend trying a regular light bulb/flood light bulb to see if the blinking still occurs.
