Dahua motion not recording!

I have a series of IP cameras on a DAHUA DH-XVR1B16-I that need to be recording by movement, but when configuring the alarm and schedule of the DVR it starts recording continuously or simply does not record, I have already changed the sensitivity and limit as well as the motion detection region but the situation does not change.

I'm pretty sure the DVR isn't defective as this situation occurs on 2 DVR's, and both are the same model.

The area in yellow represents movement, even at dawn it is recording without anything happening in front of the cameras.
 
What is your motion detection settings?
If the sensitivity is too high it continuously thinks motion is occurring.
'Anti-dither' also leads to longer motion recordings if set undesirably.

60 sensitivity and 15 threshold, in all cameras, the only difference between cameras is the range of motion that varies

Is any other motion region set?

I have translated these images to Portuguese for you.

More ideas:
Check pre-record time.

There may also be accidental setting of alarms. Such as alarm input triggers, video loss, tampering and others.

There isn't any other motion regions configurated.

The pre-recording is at 5 and post-recording is 10 seconds (minimun value).

I confirmed that other options are disabled (like video loss), currently enabled options are motion detection and alarm input. So shouldn't have any accidental settings.
