Protect America security cameras offer a variety of features to help keep your home or business safe and secure. One important feature that you may want to enable is audio recording. Having audio enabled on your security camera can provide valuable information in the event of an incident and can help you monitor your property more effectively.
To enable audio on your Protect America security camera, you will need to follow a few simple steps.
