Dr Brown....

 

First, the camera will only record if 1) manually record started 2) motion trigger record started. In order for motion record to happen, the ARMED mode must be turned on. If it is, when looking at the cameras view page, the "running man" ( above each camera, left ) will be BLACK .  If the man is gray the cameras are not armed.

 

Yes, you can deleted the schedule and just use the ARMED mode which is a default... this will set the cameras up for record upon any motion ( as long as left active )

 

These cameras ,BTW, are not ment to be used for 24/7 recording as they are battery based and it will deplete them rapidly... they are designed for Motion Activate record. ( see motion, then record )
