Hello,I have an Argus 3, Argus PT, E1 Pro. I like them, they are working fine. I just ordered two RLC-810A and one RLC-510A that I will run through a POE switch using SD cards. I might buy an NVR in the future. When I mow the yard or the grand kids are at my house playing, I turn off the camera recording setting and push notification on the Argus 3, Argus PT so I don't get a lot of unwanted recordings or alerts. When I get my POE cameras I assume I'll have to do the same with each camera, turn the settings off/on with each camera, or maybe turn off the POE switch so they will all be off line? Is there, or I wish there was, an entire system on/off button in the phone app so I could easily turn on/off all cameras with one button? With an NVR you can shut down the whole system temporarily. My Blink cameras app has this whole system on/off button and it is very convenient.
We are sorry that the devices cannot be turned off via the app. You can consider setting the scene mode to see if it can help. https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026049414-What-is-Scene-Mode-and-How-to-Set-the-Scene-Mode-for-Your-Cameras-on-Reolink-App
I did not know there was a Scene mode in the app. I've had Reolink cameras less than two months and obviously I'm still learning. Thank you Cynthia for telling me. I'll do some setting up with it.
A widget 2x1 to manage type of "Turn on" and "Turn off" scenes would be perfect to manage the cameras each time you left/arrive home.
Really thanks for your suggestion. I will feedback to the R&D department and try our best to improve the software.
