Hi @Patrick,

please do the following checks:

- Is there an obstacle in front of the camera?

if not

- Power off RyngDyng and after 2 minutes power on again.

If it does not help

- Check the USB cables of the cameras. Check that the USB connectors are tightly plugged into the on-board computer

Still not ok:

- Have a look inside the camera housing whether the camera lens can be seen in the middle of the housing. Eventually, push up the camera in case it moved down caused by a shock

If still not ok, there is a need to replace the camera. Please contact [Archery Analytics](https://www.archery-analytics.com/public/contact)
