How do you set up the camera to record video via motion trigger. I can't seem to figure that one out.

Do you know which door/window sensor brands are compatible with the Schlage Link system? Also, I do have an IP camera from another maker (not Schlage) and I was wondering if I can make it work with the "Link" web-base platform from Schlage.
