    why so many -FALSE-alarms? { PIR, Intrusion, LineCrossing } ??

    thanks for confirming my experimental findings : So, I hypothesize that : the sun, clouds, shadows, wind, branches, etc. apparently WILL cause undesireable triggers of the PIR, Intrusion & LineCrossing detection. Making those sensors ... not as useful as "hoped".

    re: cause of alarm/trigger of the PIR, Intrusion & LineCrossing detection ... After dark and calm, I did a 'lil more (unscientific?) experimentation of those three alarm/triggers. Although I have NOT been successful in having them trigger the GV804N NVR recorder, the camera does send the...

    why so many -FALSE-alarms? { PIR, Intrusion, LineCrossing } ??
