Too many motion emails

Post by GaryPSU »

I am generally satisfied with my outdoor bullet camera - IP3M-954E. However, during a heavy rainstorm, I get hundreds of motion detection emails, even with a fairly high threshold setting. Any ideas - other than stopping notifications during a storm?

Hello GaryPSU,

Unfortunately there is nothing I am aware that you can try except increasing the threshold and reducing the sensitivity. Since the motion detection is based on pixel changes, a heavy rain storm can trigger excessive amount of alarms.
