I just installed 3 of the OB-EF700IR100L2812D-W cameras and two of them have a pinkish hugh over the entire image.  The third is fine.  Cable tests good.  What could this be?

The third camera started producing the pink also.  Then it went away on its own.  I don't get it.

It is the IR cut filter making the pink color. Try defaulting that camera as well and adjust the osd settings as I described before. When this happens are the IR LED on? Also is there anything reflective in the area? Pools, wet grass/leaves. Does this happen during specific times during the day?

I have not been able to reset the OSD yet but the issue has now changed.  One of the cams still doesn't work at all, I hope to test it tomorrow.  The one that was producing the pink color looks fine today.  The third one that worked most of the day yesterday with about a 30 minute time where it went pink today has a lot of extra yellow in the image.  The parking area has yellow stripes and the car sitting there has a yellow stipe which seems to be over-saturating the camera.

There are some features I want you to try,

The first is shutter/AGC. Take it off auto and manually adjust it. 

White balance and WDR are the other 2 features. 

 

The camera also has a reset feature. If you get the settings too far out you can default it and start over. The reset is on the the last OSD menu page.

I have made adjustments on two of the three so we'll see how they perform.  The third cam is bad.  It did work for a few hours but has failed.  I removed it and connected it directly to my wrist monitor and get no video.

I emailed the RMA out for the dead camera.
