I have started agin with getting a camera to take pictures and record video on motion detected.

For 1 camera I have:
Universal camera <-> Motion Detector <-> Visitor Counter <-> Download to file, and Preview and Archive, which is also connected to Visitor Counter. This setup works well, and just downloads files and records video on motion detected.
I have attached a picture of the setup for clarity.

On another camera I have the exact same setup and modules, but this records videos and it takes pictures when there is nothing there.

If it makes any difference, the 1 camera it works well on is a Merit Lillin 720p,and the other camera where it doesn't work as should is a Hikvision DS-2CD202.

If the setup is the same, I can't understand why it doesn't do as it should on the Hikvision camera.
Thanks

Here is the picture of the modules I have setupfor both cameras

Are the Motion Detector module sensitivity settings the same for both chains? Are the Motion Detector module sensitivity settings the same? Is there a time marking on the second camera?

Well I feel such a dumbo, as the problem was caused by the sensitivity level been set too low on the other camera. Once I altered it to 25 or so, tyhe camera stopped taking pictures of nothing. Doh!

No problems! We're happy that everything is working fine now.
