Hi, Thank you for contacting us we apologize for the issue there should be a manual that came with this product to explain how to get the product in this mode

It's recording mode. It used motion or sound for activation. Note this does not record sound, only senses it to activate. Never used this part though.

Yes you can. It will move up and down between loops and change the record mode.

You can make adjustments to the recording level settings in the menu. Refer to the product manual for more detail--But the "quick" button will allow you to align levels which might help.

No, the system gives no audible or visual cue that it is recording. Motion detection is pretty sensitive, even at the low setting. Snowflakes blowing by the camera will easily trigger a recording.

yes the system can be setup to record upon motion. i have mine setup to record constantly, so i don't have much experience on how exactly to do it. i also know that you can set it up to email you if a camera is triggered by motion. hope this helps

Not sure exactly. There is a phone app in general. And I thought there was a feature that you could set it to auto record for 15-30 seconds after motion was detected.

I have been using it for months now and it records per minutes totaling to 60 minutes. Not continuous. You may need more memory.

With the video camera on, but not recording or in camera mode, do the following. Press the Menu button on the side of the camera. The following should be displayed on the screen. Use the UP and Down buttons on the side of the camera to highlight (not really highlighted) what you want to do. Use the REC/SNAP button to actually select something. Press the Menu button to exit.

It will mark on the video feed sections where it sensed motion, and you can set the sensitivity. It also lets you send a email, but I have never tired that. Unfortunately my motion capture seems to be having issues. Where it would normally mark the video in red where it sees motion I get sections of video that are missing, I have tried replacing the main DVR (NVR) but I still have the issue. The issue was not happening when I first got my unit, so not sure what caused it to start happening and others do not seem to have this issue.

Each camera's motion sensitivity can be adjusted independently, for example Camera 1 can be set to high sensitivity while Camera 2 is set to medium sensitivity, and so on. You will need to adjust these based on your own situation to find what works for you. The "Trigger Recording Time" setting adjusts how long any camera will continue to record once motion stops. You can choose between 15 seconds, 30 seconds, and 60 seconds. Setting to a shorter time (like 15 seconds) will create shorter videos, but there is a chance that the camera will stop recording before whatever triggered the camera is actually gone (if it stops moving for 15 seconds) and you may end up with another separate video file being created when it starts moving again a few seconds later. On the other hand, the longer times (like 60 seconds) will create fewer files (because it is more likely that a single person triggering the camera will be completely captured in a single video file), but those files will be longer and have much more "empty" time where nothing is happening. It's a trade-off. I set mine to 30 seconds and that works well for me.

I have spent a lot of time with the unit and I don't believe you can do both. It is very specific for one activity at a time in playback. Could ask company? Pamphlet is vague and most of what I have learned has been trial and error.

I believe it does. I don't have the option enabled, but I saw it in the menu when I was doing the setup. Right now I have it set to just record when it detects motion.

There are settings that you can edit. I run mine for 5 minutes max. It's perfect though. I might actually change into a minute because it does loop recording with no gaps and it does not take as long to transfer a file over vs the 5 minute clips. I don't remember off the top of my head but you first must stop any recording. Then you push the little button on the bottom (normally turns the screen on or off while it is recording) and it will pull up the settings menu. Play around in that and you will see how different options and you can change your record options there. I also chose to have my display turn off my itself after 1 minute (its the fastest). I entered my licenses plant number as well. It's a great device with lots of options. Check it out and you get into the settings. :)

It's a dvr it's not suppose to turn off, it needs to be recording at all times

Hi Bob, you can enter the menu and adjust the recording time in different settings (1-2-3-4-5 minutes) does this help you?

Not to my knowledge. I've not tried to do this but the playback and record menus are not operable at the same time.
