Multiple Motion Masks for event triggers

Migrating this from another report as requested:

I'd like to set separate motion masks for event generation.

Right now, there's only one setting, but it desirable to use different masks for different event generation.

For example,  one small low sensitivity area for a door might be used to trigger Pushover

Another small medium sensitivity area might trigger a different Pushover event [or email]

The whole camera, minus burn-in timestamps, might lastly be set at medium sensitivity for after-the-fact motion searches.

In other words, it would be great to decouple the camera masks used for Smart Motion Search from event triggers, allowing event triggers to have their own motion masks.

 

Cheers

  Hi Rick,

  Thank you, I think it's a good Idea. We are thinking about adding this functionality in some of the future versions.

  I'm wishing for the same thing.

  Another use case might be setting a motion zone in front of a door that when triggered could tell a separate PTZ camera to load a preset which zooms in on that location. This would be a separate event from motion record which might be recording the entire scene.
