CCTV Maintenance Checklist
To help maintain your CCTV system, Caught on Camera have put together this checklist of
everything you need to know.
Camera Lens
Check the camera view hasn’t been knocked off path and you can see your property perimeter clearly
Clean any dust or marks off the camera lens with a can of compressed air and wipe down the camera casing
with a microfibre cloth
Check that the motion detection sensors are working, if you have them
Use your controller to check that the camera’s functions, such as zoom and pan are working correctly
Wiring
Check that you’re getting a clear transmission of sound and picture with no distortion
Monitors
Check that the monitors are showing a clear picture and that the brightness and contrast settings are
correctly adjusted
Check all of your switches and individual equipment are functioning fully
Clean all monitors and equipment of dust and grime with a microfibre cloth and a weak cleaning solution
Check cables leading from the equipment are in good condition and that there are no weak connections
