Security Monitor Pro: Disabling Motion or Noise Detection

Disabling Motion or Noise Detection

If you want Alerts to be triggered only by noise, you can either disable motion detection or disable the video device.  If the video device is disabled, no video will be recorded, so if you want to record both, disable only motion detection.  Similarly, if you want to trigger Alerts when motion is detected but want to ignore sound, disable either the audio device or noise detection.
