Here are some common recording modes:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Continuous Recording: <\/strong>Some security cameras are set to record continuously 24\/7. This means they capture and store video footage continuously, regardless of whether there is any motion or activity.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Motion-Activated Recording: <\/strong>Many modern security cameras have motion sensors and can be set to record only when motion is detected. This helps save storage space and makes it easier to review relevant footage.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Scheduled Recording: <\/strong>Some security systems allow users to set specific schedules for recording. For example, you might schedule cameras to record during business hours or when you are away from home.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Event-Triggered Recording: <\/strong>In addition to motion detection, other events, such as door\/window sensor triggers or alarm system activations, can initiate recording.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>On-Demand Recording: <\/strong>Some systems allow users to manually start recording when needed. This is often used in conjunction with live monitoring.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Smart or AI-Based Recording: <\/strong>Some advanced cameras use artificial intelligence (AI) to identify specific events or objects (like people or vehicles) and trigger recording based on those criteria.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div
