I want to adjust the recording length of my cameras.  Thus far all the instructions I've found are for the smart phone app.  The web app from a computer does not match the prompts or options stated in any instructions I've seen.  I would RATHER NOT install on my phone, please don't suggest that.

 

It seems I can make other cameras record the camera in the back of my house detects motion (my front camera records when the back camera detects motion - don't know how this association was made) but can't get it to record for more than 10 seconds.

I should add that I go into Mode -> Armed -> I select the camera Named 'Back Porch'.  In there I see a title called 'Back Porch'.  Is says if the following 'Back Porch' -> Motion is detected.  If I select that option I can select the sensitivity of the motion detetion.

 

I want to chang the record time.  BUT  Under the section called:  "Then do the following" I click the pull down/select/list button and my camera called 'Back Porch' does not show up as an option.  I want to have it record for 30 seconds. I allows me to select my other 3 cameras and change those record length but not the camera in question

Go to MODE, picke the active mode you want to use  and EDIT

pick camera

pick RECORD VIDEO and edit >  you will see a page with a slide bar for time, adjust same,  USE the BACK at top left of page

SAVE is on bottom of the page when you use back.

Under Rules ->   I want to change it to if camera A detects motion I want camera A to record for 30 seconds.

 

 

 

I can select camer A on motion but Camera A is not in the list under "Do the following"

 

I'm about to return the entire package.....

MarkW0369,

 

To edit recording length you must select the rule for the appropriate camera that you would like to edit.

 

Mode > base station > click the ">" next to the mode you would like to edit > click edit next to the desired camera.

 

In your case, select edit for the rule for Camera A, you then want to click the ">" next to "Record Video" and adjust the length.

 

Be sure to save after making changes.
