CCTV Operator Interview Question:

Tell me how to verify if one of these is receiving power and recording?

Using a thick paper or your finger, cover the unit's light sensor. This will activate the night mode in the device. If the night vision LED appears to glow, then the camera is receiving power and recording. Additionally, check for a clicking sound from the Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter on the camera for further confirmation.
