Activity Zone Snapshot Update

MarkProulx — Sun, 28 Oct 2018 16:26:53 GMT

Now that I have external electrical power connected to my camera, I wish to invoke an Activity Zone. The snapshot associated with my Activity Zone is no longer correct. I have a current snapshot in my library, but I cannot figure out how to make it available to the Activity Zone settings page.

I saw that you posted this in an earlier thread, so I tried to do it. What baffles me is that on my Activity Zone page, there is no item that allows you to select a snapshot. I have attached a screenshot of the page to illustrate. There exist no menu items below "Power Management." Am I looking it the wrong location?

Try tapping on the snapshot to refresh it or use the above instructions on a browser.

Success!

I had to log in from a browser to do it, but as soon as I did, the snapshot on the Activity Zone page updated to the current one. I was then able to set up the desired zone.

I had zero success in doing this from my smartphone, but no matter. Problem solved!

Thanks!
