I know this has been brought up in the new ideas subforum (and another member thought offered invoking the all-motion-off mode), but this was never addressed or answered definitively:  Is there or is there not some single button or setting one might invoke which globally turns all motion off all of one's cameras, over-riding (and/or without necessitating the manipulation of) the calendar/scheduling?

Good morning R_Lowe,

 

Yes, you can turn OFF the schedule in the Modes Tab where you should then see a list of "All motion on" and "All Motion off" along with any custom modes you may have created. Simply select the radial dial for the mode you wish to enable. Ta-Da! That should do it. If you want to continue to manually change modes this is how you would do it instead of enabling the schedule.

 

Try this and let us know if the steps above answer your question once and for all! 🙂

 

Happy Friday!

Also - a quick button to turn on all cameras, or multiple schedules so you could do "vacation", or "away", or "home" with a quick click.

OK, I think I've got it.  So on the PC/web page login, you press "Mode" at the bottom of the page which brings you to your calendar, and then select that toggle switch to the far right of the word "Schedule" (always wondered what that was for).  And that's where I saw my radio button choices (I had four since I added two modes).  I clicked on the "All Motion Off" radio button then looked in "Settings" and saw it in fact switched it.  I presume it worked (I'm not at home to test) but I did notice however that when I navigated back to the calendar it showed my regular schedule. 

 

I'll just test it in real time once I get home from work or this weekend.  Thanks!

Is there some easy way to turn only one camera on or off. Like it used to do with the vuezone systems?

The is really only one way.... and its easy.

 

Make a new MODE with "that" camera OFF and the others on. When activated it will be off.

ALL OFF( you already have as default) will turn the remaining cams off when wanted
