Scheduling

by nunuvyurbiz » Tue Aug 26, 2014 1:16 pm

Is live viewing limited to when rules are in effect?

For example, suppose I want a rule only during the day, when I'm not home, but I want to view the live stream when I am home (and the rule is off). Is that possible?

Also, is it one clock for all rules (for a given camera)? The schedule indicator is on the row of the first rule, but I gather it really applies to all rules?

Each rule has it's own schedule, and a camera will only be on and monitored/recording if there is a currently scheduled rule. If a rule does not have a response enabled (such as 'save', 'email', 'play a sound') it will not have a scheduling option, as it is only useful for searching through recorded after the fact - it does not have an action to take so cannot be scheduled.

OK, that makes sense, thanks.
