7. Motion Detection
If the wireless DVR recorded everything it saw all the time, you’d wind
up with hundreds of images (or hours of video) where nothing is
happening! That’s not very useful for anyone, as it would fill up the SD
card too fast, and leave you searching through hundreds (or more)
files to try and find the incident you are after!
Thus, to save storage space – not to mention your time and sanity –
the wireless DVR is designed to record short videos (5 or 10 seconds
in length) or take a series of still images whenever something happens
in view of the camera. We call this MOTION DETECTION.
To turn MOTION DETECTION ON or OFF:
