With the CVR service, is it recording constantly or only when an alert (movement/sound) is triggered?

Always as long as your camera is on....kept for a week if you do not save. The alerts show up as blue blocks on your timeline for the week.....click on those to save.

Both of mine record consantly not just when there's movement dectected. Very helpful!

Constantly. I have the 7 day service so I can go back and view video from any time in the last 7 days regardless if there was motion that triggered it. Sporadically I will have a short drop due to wifi connection but usually for very short periods of time and very infrequent. I make sure my camera is near strong wifi source.

It constantly updates itself via two basic modes. On Track mode it will actively track and make sounds that relate to distance and it also shows the distance in visual and percentage. It will be monitoring non-stop all day with the monitoring mode without making the sounds but it does allow for alarm modes as well...

I do not know.. But, I can tell you that I have the 4 cam system on motion sensor (event) recording. With a busy store it can often record continous all day, until we close the store and then it doesn't record much other than a security guard walking by the entrance a few times overnight.. Typically, I am experiencing 17-19 days of recording with the 1TB drive.

I turned off the motion activated setting (I think it's delivered with that setting on) and then set it to record at the maxium 15 min segment. It'll still talk every once and a while, but not nearly as often. After I set it up this way it basically just records continuously ( but it does say 'recording' if a new 15 min segment starts. As far as I can tell there isn't a way to simply turn off that annoying pointless voice that you can't even understand anyway. Hope that helps.

As far as I know, the unit logs only the GPS location with a certain interval based on user settings. The individual GPS points registered are used to plot a track, and by that, the movement of the user can be seen. Motion, other than the movement based on the track log can not be identified. The vibration sensor is a.f.a.I k. only used to wake the unit from "sleep mode" - a power saving feature, and is not related to any data collection.

It has motion senors built in. If anything walks within the field of vision it will auto record if you set that feature up.

I have been using it for months now and it records per minutes totaling to 60 minutes. Not continuous. You may need more memory.

Usually the DVR is the one that records with motion but the camera is always on

You have the option of setting how long the unit will record for. For example, you can set it to record for 30 seconds upon each motion detection.

It records one video, as long as there is motion to record. Once it stops, it does not restart, so is not actually motion activated, which would continue to start and stop, each time there was motion to record.

It records as soon as someone ring the doorbell. I forgot to check if it does have a motion detector. You can't access the recorded feed remotely. It is meant to show you who's outside the door when your home without peeking at the peephole plus taping it so you know who tried to visit you while you're gone. It is really a fun useful gadget. I have it in my condo in Asia. If you want to access the feed remotely and record it in an sweetdreams card, I have the security camera at the house here for that. And yes, it has a motion detector, light sensor so it can record in the dark etc. pretty much what you wanted. I can't use this in the condo since the association is pretty strict about the common space which I'm perfectly fine with. Have a great weekend.

It detects sudden movements (for example a collision). The camera would lock the video file it's recording in the event of an accident so that it wouldn't be over-written

Yes on both accounts. You can FF when watching the video recording and you can set it to notify you when motion is detected and on what camer so you can go right to that camera and remote view.

No not directly record into a pc that I know of. Try calling tech support to verify. But to answer question, I am NOT aware of a way to do this. You can record continuously with an SD card which you may already know. I use the lorex phone app to send me an email notification once motion is detected. Then if necessary I use the live function to check on the cameras for anything else going on that I may need to check out.

It will record video and audio as long as the unit is on. If you turn off your computer that receives the signal, it will obviously not record. You can set it to overwrite old recordings if you fill up the allotted time. There are two settings to view recordings: one for motion detection, the other is straight recording- I do both. I can then fast forward, or slow forward in 6 second intervals.

No motion sensor. Also, recording pauses if you play a song. You can set it to resume when the song is over, but it's a roll of the dice. The manual claims that there are all sorts of settings and button functionalities. But they seem to work on an arbitrary basis. The only thing it does consistently is record whilst looking like a clock. I wouldn't rely on it for much else.

If is motion activate. Once activated if records while it detects any motion and will stop recording for a few seconds after the motion stops. You must delete old recordings. I do not think there is a setting to over write.
