VCR Commander II also works with multiple camera systems (system expandable to 16+ cameras)
with Motion Sensors. If a person starts walking around your house, as they enter Zone 1 the camera monitoring Zone 1 will turn on, and the VCR Commander II starts your VCR recording. As they enter Zone 2, the second camera will turn on (camera 1 will turn off) and the VCR will continue to record what's happening in Zone 2. As the person completes a trip around your home (ex. visiting Zones 1-4), the tape will show everything as they move between all four zones.
NEW - LEARNS MOTION SENSOR CODES! The VCR Commander II allows you to learn motion sensor codes (see control panel on right), so you can have the same motion sensor turn on a camera & turn on/record the VCR. (Solves the problem of needing double motion sensors; 1 for camera, 1 for VCR Commander)
When no motion has been detected from the motion detector for 5 minutes - the VCR Commander II will turn the VCR OFF or STOP recording. This will make sure your tape only shows the action and reduces the amount of blank, no action time.
NEW - HOME & AWAY MODE! The VCR Commander II allows you to operate in a home & away mode. In "away" mode, the VCR Commander will turn on the VCR and record the action based on being activated by a motion sensor. In "home" mode, when motion is detected - instead of turning on the VCR and recording, the VCR Commander will chime, to let you know about the action.
How it works & directions for setup The new VCR Commander learns a sequence of up to 4 different IR commands (labeled PWR, REC, PLAY, and STOP) and up to 4 different motion sensor signals. You teach the IR commands by selecting the button on the VCR Commander II (UX23A) to learn for and then using the VCR remote control to emit that command to the VCR Commander II. Learning motion sensor codes is done in a similar manner.
When the On command from the programmed X10 address is received, the VCR Commander II will issue the programmed IR sequence to the VCR through the IR emitter cable. More On commands (signals of further motion) within 5 minutes will be ignored. If no more On commands are seen within 5 minutes (no further motion), the VCR Commander II will issue the IR "Stop" command. After the "Stop" command is issued an On command will start the cycle over again. Because of this, it is recommended that you shouldn't use the "PWR" command as part of their record sequence, and should instead leave their VCR on all the time.
