Finding a way to turn alerts on and off

[bigbillsd]

Hi, I looked at the schedules feature of v4 that I own and it looks like that is just for turning cameras on an off. I like to record all the cameras 7x24 but would like to either schedule the alerts on or off or find an easier to way to manually do it. When I am home or during the day I really don't need lots of texts and emails going out. Any other way to do this without going into the properties of each camera and either checking or unchecking the a type of alert under the tab.

Thanks, Bill

You could create 2 profiles, one in which the alerts are enabled, one where they are not.
If you want the 2 profiles to be controlled by time, then create a schedule to enable/disable the above profiles.

Below is pages 93 thru 97 of the Help for BI v5 that details this.

Thanks! Tony, I think that will work for what I want to do. -Bill

Another way to do it is to use the shield icon(old traffic light) and only set it to disable alerts (blue iris options >other) This wont allow a schedule like using profiles would.

Oh, thats interesting! That might be even better than scheduling. it.
