Hi, This is my first post and hopefully I could get some much needed help! My son and I installed 2 Digital Watchdog DWC-V1363TIR. Everything is up and running also have the Digital Watchdog DVR DW-VF4500G. My question, I have it set to motion with email notifications. I adjusted the camera from the DVR to the lowest setting for motion. Within a 1 1/2 days I got over 650 emails...lol. Out of the 650, maybe 15 of the emails actually showed a few cats triggering the motion. Most came from the backyard cam and it didn't show anything on the jpeg it was blank. From what I've read, it looks like I have to plug into the camera settings and adjust the motion sensitivity there, is this correct?. I don't have a field test monitor, would a external monitor work? If so, how can I get to the menu and scroll from there? Any suggestions would sure help!!! Thank you, Jerry

You are so right!! Motion is getting to me, with all of these emails. Thanks again for your help! Jerry

Hi, I blocked out as much as I could and still got 70 plus emails. I also went back into the GUI and dropped the sensitivity down to 1. I'm thinking this is as good as I can get it. Might just take notifications off sooner or later. Jerry

I had to go to my sons, since I have a iMac and can't do it from that. I blocked out quite a bit, but for some reason, still got over 20 emails...Hoping that it just takes a bit of time to take affect. Thanks

Hi, I did go into the GUI and dropped the sensitivity down from 20 to 5 for the motion. This morning got over 260 emails, better then over 360. Again went into the emails and almost every one of them had no movement...cats, etc. I'm guess, I'm going to have to remove the bushes in the menu and hopefully that will help. Unless others have a suggestion? Jerry

Hi, Thanks for getting back to me! I just took off the cover and I can adjust it. It has a toggle switch to navigate. Hoping I can turn the sensitivity way down. My son has a monitor with a adapter that will work. Thanks again!
