    Urgent: how to let motion detecting event ring alarm on phone

    I don't know if this is what you are looking for but I use an App called easy viewer Pro I believe it is a Dahua app and it will allow you to get motion alerts on your phone as well as live and playback video.

    Hoping for some advice on some adjustments I can make to my LPR camera

    that is a good feeling. Anyway I know you are probably going to do more adjusting, just write down the settings and put them in a safe place. you never know when your nvr,camera may crash.
