adjusted in the Camera Settings. See Page 10.
When no motion is detected, the camera will stop recording. When motion is detected, the camera will automatically begin to record and place the videos into the Parking Folder. When motion
is detected for more than 2 minutes, the camera will exit Parking Mode.

is detected, it will begin recording.
