Re: ds924 Motion Det. Set-Up Help Please?

["Bob Worthy" <securinc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

May be redundant, but the battery saving feature will put the motion to
sleep, if you will, until there is no motion in the area of view for a
period of time and then it will detect motion again. Lets say there was a
party in the room and the motion was detecting constant motion for an
extended amount of time, the batteries would die rapidly. May be the same
thing Doug was saying.
