I'd like to figure out how to setup either a physical (switch) or a button on the web interface that would enable a Home/Away mode so that motion events only while the system is in away mode would trigger a sms message, video upload or email message (basically anything in the filters). I've searched all over the forums and can't find any reference to anyone doing this. Any ideas?

Search the forums for "change run state".

Do the filters change when the run state changes? I'd prefer to keep the cameras in modetect mode all the time, with notifications sent only when the system is 'armed'.

I believe if you set all the options while in a different mode, ie, when in Away mode send an email to your sms service. Home mode options would not be sent.
