Hello...is there a way to set up 3 of my 4 cameras to detect and record motion 7 days a week from 0530am - 530pm then schedule the 4th camera to detect and record motion while we're asleep (930pm - 530am) and activate them all at the same time?

Sure is.  You need to go to the Mode tab, choose your system and set up new modes to do what you need. You'll need to add cameras to the same mode since only one mode can be active at a time.  Once these are set up, you can use the schedule to whatever you need.  Be sure to start at the top (midnight) and work down to avoid confusion.

 

Hence, one mode would have 3 cameras with appropriate sensitivity and recording times.  The 4th camera would be in its own mode.  Add the single camera mode to the schedule starting at midnight and ending at 5:30AM.  Add the 3 camera mode and set the times to start at 5:31AM and end at 5:30PM.  Finally, add the single camera mode again with a start time of 9:30PM and ending at midnight.  You have to do it this way since the schedule doesn't allow you to "wrap around" through midnight.
