Running 3 cameras at different times

adammolinaro — Mon, 31 Oct 2016 17:32:22 GMT

I want my schedule to be 2 cameras running 24/7 and the third to be on from 8pm-8am 7 days a week. When I make modes then try and turn them on in the schedule the time defaults to 12am and won't save. What am I doing wrong. Please show the details of how I can configure this arrangement.

Thank you.

To schedule through midnight, set the schedule for the appropriate mode to start at 12:00AM and finish whenever. Then schedule the same mode from another time to 11:59PM.

Thanks for the reply. To schedule a specific time on one camera and run 24/7 on the other two, I set all three cameras on "armed" and split the times in the schedule for the camera I wanted on at specific times. Then I created a mode for the 24/7 cameras and scheduled their time when the other was off.

Yup, that works although it may be better to use your own custom mode rather than Armed. Whatever works for you...
