    Move PTZ to presets based on specific triggered IVS rules of another camera

    I thought the IVS rules to trigger certain actions would work really well and was excited about it. But if I have 2-3 IVS rules with different actions, I found it really hard to get working right. Instead, I use a combination of IVS rules and motion zones. I don't turn on motion triggering, but...

    Move PTZ to presets based on specific triggered IVS rules of another camera

    OK, thanks. I thought the "additive" option would only capture new zones/additional sources, so i wouldnt think triggering the same IVS rule would be considered a new source. Ill try the intrusion.

    Windows 11 - Powerup after Losing Power?

    Yes the settings say that it will turn off pc when battery is 5 minutes left. I did a test….it says 50 minutes but only gets around 25 minutes. Had the battery a couple of years so probably time for a replacement. Should I just replace the battery or get a new ups? Even with a new battery, the...

    Windows 11 - Powerup after Losing Power?

    Ok so I’ve tested out the UPS issue. After the battery has drained and power is restored, the PC actually powers back on. However, it shortly turns off. Is this because the battery is drained on the UPS and it’s telling the pc turn off because the battery is low? I don’t think I can change these...

    Hahaha that’s not me….someone strange walked around my property at night holding a bible and eventually walked off into a canyon that goes no where. The whole reason I setup the camera in that location is weird people come through that “hole” in the fence

    I ended up just setting it to “auto” and it actually turned out a lot better than me trying to mess with it. Once I’ll get more patience, I’ll try to do this manually and tune it in all the way….check it out

    Would I drop down all three fields including: "Exposure compensation", "3D NR level", and "2D NR Level"? Once i start dropping it down below 50 the still image becomes so pixelated I cant see anything. But i guess you are saying once the IR light starts reflecting on the person it will clear up...

    Dont mind if i ask dumb questions? Why do you use customized scene? Why not the Day/Night Switch? I assume you have a whole set of other settings for Night time, right?
