motion detection working up close most of the time but need to pick up the distance that cameras will

pick up motion and start recording.  Right now it is very close... within a foot or two.  How do I increase the distance?

Positioning and sensitivity setting are needed to best get what you need. Read the FAQ her on best camera positioning. Motion is best detected across the FOV, not at the camera. Increasing the motion sensitivity in your modes and rules may be needed.

 

Post screenshots of the camera view for suggestions.

PS: Remember , that for people , the max range is about 25ft...

don't try to cover a large area than it covers.
