General information
- Can a video device use both an Onboard (SD card) and SVR recording schedule simultaneously?Yes. A video device can record continuously to an Onboard recording schedule and SVR recording schedule at the same time.
- High Dynamic Range (HDR) for video devicesCameras equipped with High Dynamic Range (HDR) can show more detail in the dark shadows and bright highlights of an image. HDR is especially useful for capturing clear video in areas with harsh lighting conditions (e.g., a camera on a covered porch, under an awning, facing a bright light source, etc.).

- Two-Way Audio Installation and User GuideTwo-Way Audio lets users talk and listen remotely through compatible video devices and hear recorded audio in saved clips. It works in the Customer app, Customer website, and on some supported panels when live video streaming is enabled. Supported cameras use either Half-Duplex audio, which requires pressing and holding to talk, or Full-Duplex audio, which allows simultaneous speaking and listening.
- Update the firmware of a video deviceThe firmware of an Alarm.com video device can be updated remotely using the Partner Portal, MobileTech app, or Customer website. Keeping the firmware up-to-date ensures that the device will be compatible with new features.
- View continuously recorded video using Smart ViewStream footage is recorded using a Stream Video Recorder (SVR) or an Onboard Recording rule at any time using Smart View. Playback of continuously recorded video is available using the Customer website or Customer app. This article details how to view, navigate and download clips from the Smart View timeline.
- What is the difference between Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex audio?♦ Half-Duplex audio allows only one communication channel to be used at a time, similar to a walkie-talkie or traditional two-way radio. These devices require the user to manually enable and disable the camera's microphone and speaker. ♦ Full-Duplex audio allows both communication channels to speak and listen simultaneously, similar to a telephone call. These devices require the user to tap or click the microphone icon once to toggle on microphone and speaker functionality during a stream.
