# Troubleshooting mid run Camera Disabled error on the NextSeq 500/550

On NextSeq 500/550 control software (NCS) version v2.2 and earlier, camera(s) may intermittently disable mid-run.

The suspected cause is related to the FPGA (field programmable array) firmware version, which has been corrected in NCS v4.0.
