vcinri 0 Posted February 4, 2013 I see on some of my cameras with the OSD that they have a motion detection option. All my cameras are outdoors surrounding my property. If I choose motion sensor on, I assume that the camera will be always off and only come on when motion is detected. Is this good or bad in a private, outdoor situation. Any recommendations?

Devendra Maske 0 Posted February 4, 2013 Hi, This is the normal thing when you selected a motion detection option. IF you want save the speace of hard disk or if you have minimum size of hard disk then please go with Motion detection. If you dont have issue with space then you can select continuous recording. There is not an issue if you selected motion detection. Regards Devendra Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
