i Have a schedule I place that turns off my 8 cameras during the day as I’m at home 90% of the time. We need an easy way to override the schedule if I do go out. A simple on off button would work well. Currently I have to go into each of the 8 schedules and disable them and when I come home, re-enable them. This is such a frustrating and time consuming thing to do. Please consider an easy option to temporarily enable and disable schedules.
@eric-jackson_493359924367559 thanks but the problem with scene mode is you need to activate it every day and that became annoying for me so I’m trying to avoid that. 90% of the time scheduling works for me, I just need a simple way to toggle it.
@reolink-fiona as we have discussed, the scene mode does not override the schedule. This user is requesting what I am requesting, a quick easy one button solution to override the schedule if we go out.
@reolink-fiona thank-you, appreciated. I hope you have success as there has obviously been a lot of development around the scheduling function and have a simple way one button way to temporarily turn the schedule on or off would make it an almost perfect solution.
@reolink-fiona this is the problem. Scenario: I have the schedule in place to turn off cameras during the day. I am going away for the weekend and now want to enable the cameras 24hrs. I have to go into the 8 cameras and physically turn off the schedule for the 7 days. I then have to go in and enable the 8 cameras when I get home. Even if I go out for the day and want the cameras on I have to do this crazy amount of work. Extremely time consuming and frustrating. Even a simple off button on the schedule would be great. That way I still have to turn on and off 8 cameras but at least it’s a simple button, not highlighting the time, enable, disable and the 7 days. Please make this suggestion in a future update. We need a simple control for turning the schedule on and off otherwise the schedule is really useless for a customer like myself. Thank-you.Edit: I’m actually referring to the camera recoding as opposed to push notification although I obviously want both. Recording motion is more important.
@seb_526812765704330 Your suggestion of using just the scene mode is really counterintuitive to the whole schedule option. I don’t want to have to turn the cameras on and off every day hence why they have the schedule option. I want the schedule to happily do it’s thing and I just want to easily override the schedule when I go out. Can’t be that hard and I’m very surprised others aren’t wanting this as well. If they just made the scene mode override the current schedule, that would be perfect. I could set an all on when I go out and it simply defaults back to the schedule at the next event.
@reolink-fiona so your saying the camera will still record motion but not send a push notification if scheduled is enabled and in scene “away” mode?
@reolink-fiona thank you but the Scene mode doesn’t appear to over ride the Scheduled off. Should it because that work be perfect?
Hi, so I have 8 Argus Eco’s on solar and they work great. I have them scheduled off during the day as I’m home a lot. Is there a way I can enable them easily if I go out? I’ve tried setting up an all on mode but it doesn’t override the schedule. If it did then just defaulted back to schedule at the next time, that would be perfect. I really don’t want to have to go through the schedule menu to enable/disable every time I go out.
