Screen in Porch

[NotThatKindaDoc]

Do any of you have issues with motion not being able to be picked up outside a screened in porch?

I'd rather not move the camera. It covers everything perfectly, but we only got the camera because someone in our community was stealing ac units, so I put a camera up coverIng that area, but it doesn't look like motion is being detected since its through a screen.

I thought of a work around...but don't know if I can do it...can you rig the system of cameras up so that if one camera detects motion, they all start recording?

Screening may block some of the IR needed to detect motion ... so a trial and error woud def be needed to get a good response ( location and sense level )

As to cam A tiggering cam B , yes, that is very do-able.

Create a Custom mode ( add a mode ) and Set cam A to record but use cam B to sense.

To take a step more you can,

cam A sense, cam A record

cam A sense, cam B record

** with a custom mode, after adding first rule/camera, you SAVE, to add the second rule/camera, go back and EDIT that mode for the second rule/camera
