How do I get smart events to record to the SD card?

I have a Hikvision DS-2DE4A425IWG-E 4MP Outdoor PTZ Camera, 25x Zoom, 50m IR with AI Tracking.

I'm trying to set up region entrance detection and in the arming schedule there is an option "Recording Linkage" which I have ticked. I wasn't able to get this to work for ages and eventually in Event and Detection settings there is an option to enable motion detect. When I enabled that recordings started to work. However now I receive duplicate events, one for the region entrance detection and one for motion detection.

If I don't tick motion detect then alerts work region entrance detection and i can see the ptz working, it just won't record.

Is record linkage meant to tell the camera to record the event?

So in your other thread there was answers. But if you happen to have other camera with older fW and asking about that as well as your other thread then use under the smart event and linkage you would want to make sure that you enable the FTP and Sd Card option and setup in your schedule under Storage for your events..

Thanks so much. It's working perfectly now. I think what threw me was the word upload which I'd normally associate with ftp or offsite storage rather than recording to a local memory card!
