Is there a way to turn off cameras so live view is disabled or shows dummy picture and no new recordings are created.
The reason I want this functionallity is that I want to have all cameras off when alarm is off. Outdoor cameras on when alarm set to intruder protection and all cameras on when alarm is set to total protection.
The easiest is turning power to the cameras off and on, but is this advisable? They might switch on and off many times a day and the cameras spend some time booting up connecting to the network etc.
I am able to switch power or relays anywhere on the property on alarm changes, and also trigger tailor made software if needed.
Anyone done anything like this?
Any ideas welcome.
Thanks
