I'm looking to setup my camers to record a specific times per camera. So example

 

Front and Backyard cameras I want to be armed 24 hours

Garage and Living room cameras I want only want to record between 9pm - 7am.

 

Is this possiable?

Actually, I did this a little different. I created a profile called "All Cameras". Then I setup one called "Outside". Then I went into schedule and created three groups of schedules. One from midnight to 7am and issed "All Cameras". Then from 7am - 9pm "Outside". Then the third from 9pm - midnight "All Cameras".

Yes... read the FAQ/ search on "Create Mode"

 

You have ARMED as default ( all on ) so you need a new mode for the Garage and Living room cams.

( this will allow you to group cameras as to need )

 

Then use the schedule to run the two modes during the time slots needed. ( or manual )

I have read the FAQ, but what I'm not understanding is that I can only select one mode. So I have created an In an Out mode. When I go to schedule them I can only have one mode per time slot. So how do I get my outside to record 24 hours and not have it affect my In mode? I would have to overlap, and I cannot seem to do that.

Ok... Yes, ONLY ONE mode at a time can run....

 

But you have one mode that is ARMED (all on ) and you made a new one , call it INSIDE....the whole method is to group your cameras as per need.

 

Now add another called OUTSIDE for the front/rear of home

 

So we now have 3 modes , ARMED, INSIDE, and OUTSIDE

 

Front and Backyard cameras I want to be armed 24 hours

Garage and Living room cameras I want only want to record between 9pm - 7am.

 

In schedule, all cameras are ON during the hours of ( 9pm to 7am ) so you would use ARMED ( when passing thru midnight, break the time into two parts , in this case from 9pm to 1159pm and next day 12 midnight to 7am )

 

At 701am start the OUTSIDE camera mode till 9PM , so you would use OUTSIDE ( the inside cams are off )

 

Tips;

any camera NOT in the active mode is off

only one mode at a time

thru midnight, break into two parts as schedule doesn't cross days
