The Security Monitor Pro schedules can be used when you only want to monitor during specific times. For example, if you have a full staff in the warehouse during working hours and only want to monitor and record when the warehouse is closed. In the case of recording or monitoring all the time, simply click on the record or start monitoring buttons. If Security Monitor Pro is restarted it will resume the state it was previously in - monitoring or recording from the cameras you specified. You do not need to set a schedule.
