Multiple Schedules for Events?

[Lurch96]

I got 2 new IPC-COLOR4M-Ts from EmpireTech recently. I'm trying to set them up but am running into difficultly getting the video detection settings fine tuned.

The cameras have the ability to sound an alarm and/or flash lights when detecting motion. Ideally, I'd like motion detection to be active 24/7, but I only want the lights to flash and alarm to sound if it detects motion during certain hours of the night. I see the ability to create multiple schedules under Event / Video Detection / Motion Detection, but it seems like any triggers I create get attached to all schedules. Does anyone know how to only associate certain triggers with certain schedules? Thanks!

Do not use MD or SMD, use IVS.

You need to create an IVS rule for each type of event.

So if you want 24/7 triggering with events, set one up that way.

Then if you want from say 9pm to 6am for it to alarm and light and sound, then set up an IVS rule for that with the schedule from 9pm to 6am.

Hello and Welcome to the Forum..

If your camera is setup with the ability it wouldn't be in that Scheduling. you will want to look at the Alarm area for motion, Under the Event might have Period or Schedule for your light/Alarm..

Even if light/Alarm is enabled and Scheduling isn't the camera will always make alarm go off. you want to I assume record all events but only want to have the Alarm go off at set hours? If that is the case again it will be in either Motion Not a good idea setup IVS if your camera has it. Setup an Intrusion or tripwire.. In the Event for your detection type where you change light info and alarm it might have Period..

Thank you! I disabled MD & SMD and have set up IVS rules. I'll do some testing with it but I think it'll be good to go!
