4. Regarding the "Supported Battery-powered WiFi cameras," the NVR is currently being adapted to support Battery-powered WiFi cameras. Some versions of the NVR have already been released. Upgrading to version 3.5 will support battery-operated cameras. The NVS8 and NVS16 will support battery-powered cameras in the upcoming firmware version, with the release date yet to be determined. The NVS4, NVS36, and NVS12W are currently under evaluation.

5. After the battery-powered WiFi camera is added to the NVR, the NVR takes over, and the standalone access to this battery-powered WiFi camera through the App/Client is no longer possible. If standalone access is needed, a hard reset of the camera is required.

6. At the moment, the battery-powered continuous recording feature is supported only on the following models with the latest firmware version (v3.5.1): RLN8-410 (N7MB01), RLN16-410 (N6MB01) and RLN36.
