If you’ve run into a problem operating your VideoRay ROV, here are seven basic troubleshooting guidelines that could be helpful in addressing the situation:

Review the user manual to see if an issue can be answered. Each system comes with a manual and the latest versions are stored on our website at https://videoray.com/support/manuals.html.
Suspect and check the obvious first. It’s easy to get distracted and overlook something obvious.
Recheck the obvious. Have someone verify your work. If you’re helping someone, verify what you’ve been told. Sometimes, just talking through the details can help you realize you missed a step or fact.
Understand correct operation and expected results. How should it work and what should happen? Does it?
Learn and recognize symptoms. What are the results telling you? What are the most likely suspects and what can be ruled out?


Isolate, divide and conquer. Classify the problem to sub-systems, remove what you can, and substitute known working parts if possible. Or, try suspect parts with a known working system.
One step at a time. Be logical and make each test provide results you can use to narrow down the problem.

If after following these guidelines you still need to contact VideoRay for remote support, the best ways to reach us are by email at support@videoray.com or calling +1 610 458 3000, Option 1.
