Q: Why does a series of broad vertical white line appears through out the image?
A: A likely issue is that the CMOS sensor becomes overloaded when the light source is too bright such as
direct exposure to sunlight or halogen light. You need to reposition the Vega Wireless Camera into a more
shaded area immediately as this will damage the CMOS sensor.
WARNING: Direct exposure to sunlight may cause permanent damage to the CMOS sensor.
Therefore do not expose the Vega Wireless Camera’s lens directly to sunlight. The Vega
Wireless Camera is designed for indoor usage and if your application requires prolonged
exposure to sunlight, a sun visor is recommended to protect the Vega Wireless Camera.
