Lawn mower and Essentials

[Philiphogsten]

Hi!

We have cameras around the house and they reacts when our robotic lawn mower is out and driving. Have tried to lower the sensibility to 50 but the camera still reacts. 

Is there any ideas what we can do?

You could create a schedule for the camera to turn off when the lawn mower is going.

The lawn mower are out and driving for 6 hours so I don’t want to turn off the camera for that many hours every second day.

You can try lowering the motion sensitivity.  Maybe start with 10.  Then raise it until you find the threshold where the cameras detect the lawn mower.  Then reduce it to just below that value.

Of course the cameras might not pick up anything useful if the threshold is too low.
