I have a Swann motion detetor/recorder that is suppose to be able to be hooked up to my outdoor Swann camera. I can't figure out how to hook it up. Thanks.

Go into your Record Menu then Record Schedule and make sure you have green set for recording motion. Other thing to check is record speed to make sure the frames per second are set. If the record icon shows up next to the motion icon then you may have a hard drive issue. Try to reformat
Yes it should flash the red led, that means that the system is recording at that specific moment....I would worry if there is motion in the front of the cameras and the red light wouldn't flash.
Make sure that the DVR hard drive is not defective, if it is in working order go to schedule recording and select your recording based on motion, alarm or continous
Your recording schedule is not the same for all cameras, go to schedule recording menu, select camera one and make sure that is setup to motion detection not alarm or continous recording.
Press the “Menu” button and use the Up or Downbutton until “Motion” is highlighted then press the “Enter” button. Use the Up or Down button to highlight the “OFF” next to “MOTION RECORD” and press the + or -button until “ON” is shown. Use theUp or Down button to Highlight the (MENU) then camera you wish to enable, then use the Left or Right button to highlight the “OFF” next to that camera and press the + and - keys to adjust the setting to “ON”. Use the Right key to highlight “AREA” next to the camera you wish to enable, and press the “Enter” button. Press the - button to turn on Motion Detection for the whole screen as shown by a green overlay, then do the same for your other active cameras.
Have you switched cameras to AUTO (A) on settings line. Is the sensitivity for motion turned on and set correctly =
1= very sensitive 9 = less sensitive.
Setting areas are shaded = no recording area
unshaded = recording area
