Do the cameras run all the time or can you set up time parameters and how easy is it to change them
During the week I would like to have the camera show during the day as per sometime and then at night all the time can I make this happen without too much difficulty
You can setup schedules for the motion detection so that it will be enabled only during certain hours for selected cameras. When motion is detected by the camera, it records several seconds of video, uploads it to their server and then sends you notifications so you know there's something to look at.
I haven't played with the scheduling features too much yet, so I'm not sure if you can setup multiple time windows for turning on motion detection during the same day. While you could setup multiple schedules, only one schedule is enabled at a time and you must manually choose which schedule you want to enable.
