Disable recording for one camera
-
Hi,
I have an RLK8-520D4-A (hardware: N2MB02; firmware: v3.0.0.123_21031205) and I am using Reolink App v8.2.4. I have 4 active cameras connected to my NVR and I have disabled the entire schedule for camera 4, but the NVR continues to record camera 4 anyway. How can I disable one camera from being recorded?
Thanks. -
Len,
Go into Settings, then Surveillance, then Record.
Under Schedule pick Camera 4, then click on Timer (under schedule),
disable all, and then Save. -
Thanks for getting back to me. That's exactly what I have done but that camera has continued to be recorded by the NVR. Any other ideas?
Thanks. -
I just did a test of the procedure, and it took about 1 min after I hit save, and it stopped recording.
Live view is still active.. -
Hi Bill,
Thanks for getting back to me. I rebooted the NVR and now it has stopped recording camera 4.
Thanks again. -
Hi Bill,
My mistake, it was still recording even with the entire schedule for camera 4 disabled. I did find a way to get recording to stop on camera 4. I used Reolink Client and set the schedule toggle for camera 4 to OFF, but now when I use the Reolink App, it shows all recording as being disabled and I cannot modify schedules for cameras that are recording.
What version of the Reolink App are you using?
Thanks. -
Reolink Client v8.2.6
-
How about the firmware on the NVR you're using?
In order to access the scheduling for cameras 1 - 3, in the Reolink App I enabled the 'Enable Record' option, and even though camera 4 schedule is completely disabled, it is now recording again. -
Same version as yours.. (v3.0.0.123_21031205)
Yes, Enable Record is an All Cameras or Nothing switch..
I just want to clarify,, because you keep saying "Scheduling",, That you are Picking the Camera under Schedule, and then clicking on TIMER not Alarm. ? -
My apologies for wasting your time. My understanding of Alarm vs. Timer was wrong.
Thanks for helping me through this. -
Len,
You didn't waste my time.. I'm glad I could help..
