I want to keep my regular schedule for my cameras but also have one of them armed 24/7.  I have 3 cameras plus doorbell.  I want to keep the current schedule I have for them to be armed from 9pm to 7am but also to have my front camera armed 24/7.    Is there a way of setting this up.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

That's a function of your modes. Any camera with a rule in a particular mode is armed while any missing a rule are disarmed. Thus, the front camera has to have a rule in all modes that are used while the others would only have rules in specific modes. The schedule then switches them automatically.

I must be missing something somewhere.  I have my schedule set on my VMB4000 for 8pm until 8am. I now want to have my front camera armed active 24/7.  I cannot do this in my schedule and if I make a new custom mode for the front camera, I cannot use my schedule.  Also, the custom mode does not let you create a time schedule to add my other camers to this new mode.  What am I missing.

You don't edit the schedule to add a camera, you edit/create a mode. Once you create the new mode, edit it again to add other  cameras as desired. Then edit the schedule to use the new mode at the appropriate time. 

Evening Mode - all cameras have a rule

Day Mode - front camera has a rule but no others

Schedule - 8PM-8AM uses evening mode, 8AM-8PM uses day mode

Got it now.  I didn't know I could add modes to my schedule.  Thanks for the help.
