can this camera be set for motion activation

It can't be set to only turn on by motion it is always on, but your recorder can be set to only record from camera when motion is detected. That is all controlled by your recorder though and not the camera.

My system alerts me to motion activation. This camera is fixed and constantly on.

Yes, the camera is motion activated. I have been pleased with the performance of the Browning camera. I have been using it for a season in the south -FL so no cold weather.

Yes, it does. You can find it in the settings once you connect it to the PC... there are two options given - 0 & 1, for normal mode and for motion detection respectively. Change the settings as per your requirement/ convenience and save it as instructed. I haven't yet tested the motion detecting mode though have already set it in the setting background. It's always good to set it as per the need in advance ;)

Nope. Any motion sensing would have to be done in the software. Most modern systems do it this way, these days. Keeps the cost down on the camera, anyway.

You can when you are using manual activation and no when you are using motion sensor,but, you really dont need to. At least we have not. We just love it!

Yes, movement is the basis for it taking a photo. The motion detector is not as sensitive as i would like as in my experiments, it missed some pics

Yes, the camera is motion activated. It seems to run fairly well when activated. However, if the object is running it may blur slightly. You can program it to take a series of pictures (1,2,3 or 4) consecutively when activated and even program it to record video. It will take good night and day time shots when motion activated.

Barry! I just read now in the manual: Motion detection ON (enable) OFF (off). Try this when you connect 12 VDC to camera. It should detect motion. I never used this function either:-( Steve

I've not gotten the motion sensing to work very well. but i've not messed with it much. You can use it in anything

No, my model (GC-XA2) does not have motion detection... you might have to look into a game camera for that. Good Luck!

No its not motion activated. U can record up to 4 hours. Its a great little camera with good quality video and pics.

You can adjust the sensitivity of motion detection with the software on your DVR, but I've found that when you set it to be sensitive enough to pick up motion at long range that it ends up recording almost all the time. Especially at night when there are bugs flying around. I haven't measured but it appears that during the day motion activation works best at around 10 to 30 feet.

The camera is powered by a standard outlet. I am not sure if the camera can be triggered on by motion detection. We use it for a continuous live feed. It should work installed behind a glass window. You just might need to make sure to keep the glass clean for a clear image.

Yes, the motion detection (setup thru blue iris) works very well with this camera.

No, you need software to record. Good software really is key to recording and motion detection, especially on these cheaper model cameras.

It can be set for heat activation only approximately 50 ft.. It is not motion activated ever. Or it can be set to time lapse pictures or video at any interval you want.

Yes it has a motion activated recording with how long you want it to record after it is started. It also can send you a snapshot to your phone when it senses motion. If you have a tree branch in part of the view you can go in and set that channel to just ignore that section of the camera view. That option is hard to explain with out pictures to help. The receiver is very veritable.
