AI DVR SMD records more events then SMD?

Post by Revo2Maxx »

Hello and Well this is something that I have not noticed before today. Normally I don't I guess pay much attention seeing it normally just worked. However today I Format my HDD and I did a search in the normal way of looking up footage.

I have my System setup for IVS in Ch1 and then I have ch 2, 3 and 4 setup on SMD.. I have motion enabled and then I turned on SMD that says it works off motion, If I disable Motion then SMD don't work.. So I always just thought if it was setup SMD that it was only going to capture what I asked for either Human or Vehicle. I swore it used to work this way..

Main issue is I can't turn off record for Motion as that will turn off for SMD as well. If I turn on SMD email for say Ch4 that is my BackDoor, If I have a head light that sets off the event Motion will send me an email?

I don't understand. I mean this is how my Old system worked and I thought this new one didn't have this issue. I didn't know before to be honest because I never setup to send emails on my backdoor SMD before tonight. I mean I did have it setup on Push and that is working just fine. However getting email of a Headlight that trigged motion event isn't cool..

Here are 2 pictures of Search for normal way of looking up events and a picture of just AI SMD events...

Others work this way or was the last FW I given some time ago make my system all goofed up?
