Hi all. 

One of the cameras I’m using is an essential spotlight camera. 

Most posts I see is why don’t you get recordings set off by motion in the grey area. 

Well i’m having the opposite problem.

I’m getting a million notifications from motion within the grey area. 

How do I rectify this with out pointing the camera down too low.

As you found, the cameras do detect motion there - though they are not as sensitive.

I'd try reducing the motion sensitivity first.  Obviously you don't want to lower it too much, so use the motion detection test to check that.

If you are still getting too many notifications, then try adding an activity zone.
