5. Motion Detection & Recording Setup

This section will cover how to set up your DVR’s scheduled recordings for both regular and

motion detection recordings. It will also cover how to set up email alerts with snapshots.

Note: The DVR can only be set up to save regular and motion detection recordings if a

hard drive has already been installed. However, email alerts with snapshots can still work

without a hard drive installed.

A hard drive is included with every DVR ‘kit’ purchased. You can confirm this by looking at the

packaging. If bought as a standalone DVR, a hard drive will need to be purchased separately.
