Can I set the camera or system to record at certain times only? Like the weekends when I'm not home rather than everyday?

If it were me, I would erase all previous recordings and start anew at the time you where concerned about. Leaving the system running makes sure you didn't forget to turn it on, or something happen at a time where you least expected it.

I donot know, With 500 gigs and 4 cameras set to highest definition I get about 2 weeks recording before it records on top of the older recording. You can set to motion detect which will greatly increase record days.

Yes and no. You can set the SmartGuard to not light up during the day when the sensor detects movement but the camera will still record. I'm not sure if you can set the SmartGuard to only record at night without the light, which doesn't seem practical since there might not be enough light for the camera to capture a picture without the light at night.

Hi Jerome... I don't believe you can schedule a time for Pan, Tilt or Zoom, I guess that would be considered "patrolling", or moving to a particular preset position at a scheduled time. Of course you do know you can schedule the camera to send motion detected alerts with snapshots of the image(s) that caused the alert to an email address. You can set scheduled times that you want your camera to detect and send alerts.I have no yet installed my Foscam FI9828W yet, I am waiting for the weather and temperature improve. Although I have allready programmed the camera, I have not spent a lot of time playing with it. Hi Jerome...

Not sure of your question. Set to Continuous for continuous recording. The scheduled recording will follow the schedule you enter and record during those times.

You can set it to record on at schedule an take photos by motion detection on a schedule and it has an option to send an email... I have not used the email though so not sure how that works but there is a place in it's setup to enter the information for that.

you have a remote that will let you record but you cant schedule anything to record it wont work like that

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 didn't set timer for recording. However, the recording can only assign to one camera only and that explains the stop switching issue. Defender do have their tech support website at http://www.defender-usa.com/support.eng-3.html?type=&search;=&cat;_id=2

Yes, it does, not sure what type as I don't use that feature. I'd look at it now but I only see the camera on weekends.

Motion recording is up to the DVR used. The camera doesn't have anything to do with it. So, the answer is no!

No it will record during the day without light... It's motion activated. I recommend keeping the sound alert on silent.

There is a setting for that. I no longer use that camera, but I remember that you can disable that. Check in all settings, maybe some setting about clock.

Yes. You can set multiple times of day in the camera application for the camera to take a set of pictures and have them email'd to you. Or, you can set up motion detection, and it will do the the same thing. Or, you can watch the video stream real time. The camera application does not store 27/7 video or a loop of video. It only streams the real time video signal or sends a set of still pictures (motion detected or scheduled). You would need a dedicated computer, large hard drive, and an application to receive the cameras streaming video signal and store. Foscam may have an application that does this, recommend you check their website. If not, there are other suppliers. Yes.

This can be turned on/off via the settings. But it has no function, so if the camera is working it doesn't matter.

it really depends on what resolution you are recording in. the more detail the more space is needed. Mine records 24 hrs a day and just loops. If I go away I lower the resolution and set the non entrance cameras to record on motion.

you can set these up for recording at pre set times or from motion. On motion you can set 5, 10, 15, and 30 second recording times

Depending on how you configure the system, they will do either. You can also set it up to have an individual camera to either record all the time of be motion sensitive. It is a remarkably flexible device.
