How do I set up my Amcrest to record footage?

Post by Black Ice »

I have the Amcrest Pro HD Model (1920TVL), IP2M-841. I also have a microSD card in the camera. I want it to be constantly recording everything it sees and overwrite old footage as it fills up. (I do not want it to only record during motion, as it always thinks the sun entering the room is motion).

Ideally, I'd like it to record both locally and on the cloud in case a thief steals the camera. How do I set it up to do this? Does Amcrest have a secure cloud service?

Hello,

We do have a secure Cloud service and you can try that for no charge and see how it works. But it can only record based on motion detection. If you want to record 24/7 the best thing to do is to use the Amcrest Surveillance Pro software. Then using the PC-NVR feature, you can record to the computer. The link for the software is below.
