    PTZ sent home on schedule breaks manual control

    Okay that is simple. I'm not sure why that is needed if there is an enabled event schedule though. Is it because 2 hours ago the camera was sent home and it wants to go back there?

    PTZ sent home on schedule breaks manual control

    Any ideas? It seems the troubleshooting forum gets less attention so let me know if I need to put it somewhere else.

    Camera configuration settings - where to set them

    Go to the camera's IP in a browser and configure some camera settings and then to BI to configure how BI interacts with the camera.

    PTZ sent home on schedule breaks manual control

    I am trying to use an events schedule to send the PTZ home every 2 hours to get the motion detection override zones to work. If the camera it not sent home then the override zones don't work. I send the camera home using the attached schedule. It works but the issue is that when the schedule is...

    PTZ override motion zones not working

    Okay if I need to send the reset to the camera from BI after autotracking has ended, how does BI know that autotracking ended?

    PTZ override motion zones not working

    Okay. Making the HTTP command is probably what I would need but it seems like there would be a better way but maybe not. I had another PTZ in this location previously and didn't have any issues with the zones. The issue started with the autotracking PTZ since at that point BI was not calling the...

    PTZ override motion zones not working

    Okay I must have missed that part and yes this is the default position is preset 1. I do have an event schedule setup for that camera to go to preset 1 at 8:30 PM each day. I should mention that this camera has autotracking setup but only for preset 1 but only for preset 1. When it is finished...

    PTZ override motion zones not working

    Thanks. I cleared all the motion settings on the trigger tab and also in the preset override. I then setup the motion on the trigger tab for the day profile and then saved it to the night profile. In the zones and hot spots I set the zone A to default to cover all the image with...

    switching to Blue Iris

    I'd say if you can configure an NVR then you shouldn't have any issues installing and configuring BI. Start small. I would not use AI until you are ready. I'd say you can move one camera over and have it working in less than 2 hours.

    PTZ override motion zones not working

    I have PTZ that gets motion in an area on preset 1 so I used the override zones for that preset but I still get motion alerts all the time. To prevent that I needed to modify the motion zone on the main motion tab. Shouldn't I be able to leave the zone A on the main motion tab alone?

    PTZ override motion zones setup help

    To work around this issue I modified zone A for the camera on the trigger tab. This is obviously not what I want since this zone will be modified for every preset. I want to modify the zone for the first preset only but when I do it gets ignored by BI so I can still use some help.

    PTZ override motion zones setup help

    This used to work but I installed a new PTZ in the same location with the same settings in BI and now the override zones are not working the way they did before. I have the zone A on the Trigger tab set to cover the whole image. I set the override mask for preset 1 to ignore some of the image. I...

    SD49425XB-HNR autotracking setup questions

    Thanks for the help. Do you typically use Enter or Enter and Exit? It is working but stops tracking after motion stops and it goes back to the preset. I have the track time set to 90 but I guess that must be with constant motion. If it goes back to the preset when motion stops then I will not...

    SD49425XB-HNR autotracking setup questions

    This is my first time trying to setup auto tracking on this camera. There are quite a few areas in the settings that seem to be related to this such as Deep IVS, Smart Motion Detection etc. and but I don't want to make any mistakes so can someone point me to a place to get some basic knowledge...

    Is it possible to adjust zoom on a varifocus camera from the BI mobile app?

    Yes it matters how BI sees your camera. You can allow BI to analyze the camera for you but sometimes you need to manually set the model for features to work.

    Person detection without cameras using wifi beacons

    This is an interesting idea but I'm not sure how practical it is for security alone but in conjunction with cameras and AI it will give you more information.

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    RJ45 is just a connector. Power Over Ethernet (POE) will supply power to a device such as a camera over an Ethernet cable.

    BI not catching motion

    Are you sure the motion triggers are in fact happening? As you probably know, reolink cameras have issues.

    Recommended solutions for BlueIris "cloud" storage?

    They probably won't be looking for the tower anyway since they will likely look for high value easy to carry items and they won't have any idea that the tower is used for cameras.
