Because of recent trespasses on my property that my cameras didn't pick up, I set all 5 of my cameras to the maximum settings. Audio & video. Not a smart move!!!! It seems like even air movement is activating them. Power is draining faster than you can bat an eyelash. I can't access Device Utilities to make changes because it says "Camera positioning and Motion Detecting Test disabled due to other activities happening from this camera setting". 

I have been able to set both Audio & Video Settings back to 50% but they are still draining rapidly and Device Utilities is not accessible. I need help.

When changing sense levels it should be a slow hand... don't recommend adjust more than 1 or 2 % at a time till you get the desired amount of triggering.

The default is 80%, most of mine sit at aprox 88 to 92% ( depends on location ).

Pull batteries to reset cameras and then start back at 80% and slowly adjust upward.
