Hello I have five cameras and one all of sudden one has started detecting motion every one minute and records, but when i watch there is nothing. Cameras in Florida and I'm home in Michigan. Have locked out the one camera. Any ideas. Thanks Jon

The only thing you can try is to restart the base in Settings, My Devices, your base, Restart button at the bottom.  If possible, having someone go into your house and reinserting the battery may or may not help - it may be a faulty camera.  Lastly, is it possible that somthing is reflecting sunlight where that camera is located?  Sun is a strong source of IR.  Of course, at night that wouldn't be possible.

sometimes spider webs can do this....or reset the camera by open/closing/removing /replacing  the battery
