When motion activates recording, how long does it record before it turns back off?

It will stop recording 30 seconds after it stops sensing motion. I hope that helps take care.

This recorder records in 2 min 30 sec intervals for as long as it senses motion.

It turns off automatically after about 30 seconds, unless there's motion. When there's motion, it remains illuminated; turning off after 30 motion free seconds.

Of course yes, the motion sensor is an option that allows you to set the timing of the Motion Sensor. If you do not want to use Motion Sensor feature, select it to "OFF". Or you can choose between 5/10/30/60 minutes. Whatever you choose, this means that if the frame does not sense human movement within this time, the frame will automatically turn off. When someone re-enters the room and movement is sensed within 8 ft of the frame, it will turn on again resuming the display that was on the screen before it switched off. Videos will restart themselves.

It can record in motion detect only. What do you means turn off the cameras? If you take out the power of the camera, it will have no signal to the DVR so it won't record. or you means you want the camera still on but it doesn't shows on the screen?

There are different settings. I have mine set on 90 seconds, the maximum. After the 90 seconds if there is still motion another 90 seconds is recorded. It takes a minimal video program to splice them all together if need be.

My experience with it is after turning off it will immediately turn on again if there is detected motion. In fact if there is constant motiondetected, it will not turn off until motion stops for the period of time set on the device, i.e. 2 mins, 10 mins , or whatever the setting is.

To clarify, I recorded 5 minutes of audio when I first turned on the recorder and left it running for four hours to kind of evaluate the battery strength and recording capacity. If you leave this recorder on for an extended period "trying" to record a conversation when you aren't present to turn off the recorder you will need to listen to the entire recording due to the fact that this is a regular recorder, not a voice activated recorder. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

When you set the motion mode in the menu it is very sensitive to any motion, whether it is a movement of the car/camera or just something passing in front of it. As long as it has power it will record approximately 1 minute segments every time it detects motion.

I'm sure answers will vary , one the memory used and the battery, mine records for approx 2 hours , and it make a file at 59 min , then it will automatically begin a new file . I don't know why it does this but it works fine. it does tend to get a little warm when recording for a long period of time.

I have it set to record over when it runs out. You can copy it off to a computer or DVD and then start over. The more you have it set to record the more data it records. Mine is set to come on at each camera when there is movement on that camera 24/7. You decide how each is to record. You also can have it email you when getting full

yes it records in motion detection. It only stores it in the card and the recording time is limited.

motion detector and records for 4 minutes when triggered. can be re triggered by continued motion. I have been very happy with it. the infrared function, however is questionable

It seems like it's starts recording as soon as motion is detected. But it's a video recording, not a snapshot. Hope that helps.

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.

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.

The motion sensor activation is typically part of the software running the camera. My cameras run 24 hours a day but the application only records the video when it detects motion.

I think it is 15 seconds to 2 minutes range of "on" time whenever motion is detected. It stays on if there is continued motion in range of the sensor. It then reverts to the delay setting and shuts off after there is no longer motion.
