Title: cameras won't switch between #1 and #2 when recording
Post by: masterjr on January 26, 2009, 11:59:42 AM

When my vcr is activated by the ifr sensor, it only records on 1 camera. Isn't it suppose to switch from camera 1 to camera 2 while recording? If not, why have a 2nd camera?

You need a motion sensor for each camera if you want them to switch; and it will only do so if motion is detected at camera #2. You need some type of software control to auto switch between cameras once recording is started.
