Understanding the Daily Statistic Report
My report is below and I'm wondering why the cameras show as offline and only 76% software uptime ????
It seems to me that they should be online 24/7 ... regardless of the motion capture and actions settings.
I want the cameras online 24/7 and scheduled only for motion capture and actions - am I doing something wrong ?

Comments
The "camera uptime" figures represent the percentage of time that the cameras themselves were online during this 18-hour period that SecuritySpy was running. 99.5% is high and does not indicate any problems with the cameras.
As you say, the cameras appear to be offline at the precise point that the report email is sent, which is midnight every day. Are the cameras perhaps set to reboot every day at midnight, or something similar?
If you look at SecuritySpy's log (File menu -> Open Log) this should give you more information about camera disconnections.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
I changed the settings under power saver -> schedule by unchecking 'start up or wake' and 'sleep'.
Here's the new Summary.
