The first 2 cameras synced OK but the third camera doesn't sync it just sits there with the blue light flashing

any ideas why?

irichmond,

Welcome to the community! Please consider power cycling the camera by opening and closing the battery compartment door. Allow the camera to power back up and attempt to sync again. If the sync is successful you should see the camera LED rapidly flash blue and turn off. Let me know if this helps!

Left the battery open over night installed a new set of batteries replacing the ones in the box, (this is a new set) two of the three cameras sync without any issues, the third one will not sync the blue light flashes steadily for about 15 minutes before shutting down with no sync. The blue light is supposed to flash blue then complete the sync with a rapid flash

Plus the battery power cable that came out of the box is a round pin and not a Mini USB plug!!!!!

Seems like i got shipped a bad box set

There is no battery cable for the camera - batteries only. I'd guess you're referring to the base station power supply.
