General information regarding storage and recordings

The camera models mentioned above are equipped with a microSD memory card as standard. If required, you can insert your own compatible microSD memory card with up to 128 GB. Recordings will be made as long as:

  • a compatible memory card is correctly integrated into the camera
  • and the memory card still has free space or the ring buffer is activated
  • and the “Motion Alarm/Motion Detection” function is activated in the live view .
info

The camera uses the date and time of your mobile device for recording. If necessary, unplug the camera for about 5 seconds to restart it and transfer the current date and time to the camera.

The "Time overview" field shows the frequency of recordings for different time periods. You can directly access recordings for the time periods displayed by tapping in the corresponding column. You can show or hide the overview itself as required.

No matter how filtered, the individual recordings appear in the list with:

  • a preview image
  • the camera name
  • Date and time of recording and
  • a symbol for the object (person, animal or vehicle) that triggered the recording (if the “Intelligent Image Analysis/Object Recognition” function is available).

It usually takes a few seconds for your phone to load a recording into the playback view. The video can also be viewed in landscape mode during playback .
