Hmmm, your 4k-x firmware is 3 years newer than mine. I'd like to try it, but your version 2.840.0000000.28R is newer than what's on Andy's web site 2.840.0000000.26. Do you remember where you got it from?

Glad to send it to ya if you want to try it, but Caveat Emptor

My other 4K-X is great on the original FW, this one has the bad nighttime noise and is oversharpened.
It wont let me revert backwards...

Well that's a damned if you do, damned if you don't choice! Keep the nicer image, or maybe detect animals while messing up the image, and if you don't like it, can't go back. My instinct is to chicken out, at least for now. I'm using both tripwire and intrusion. For the heck of it, I just turned on the object filters in the UI. Wouldn't be the first device ever that worked backwards if it turned out to work that way.

Best animal detection camera I have is a 3.6mm 4K-X with this FW and its consistent

(No it's not supposed to, but it does an incredible job of picking up critters)
The Intrusion zone is set to Humans and Vehicles, it seems to be more sensitive than the zig zag tripwire in this case

Failed experiment. The deer in the picture walked the entire width of the camera view with no triggers. I did get a few triggers from tall blowing grass.

I think its becasue of the top down view. I think AI modeling requires more of a side view to ID a critter, or human for that matter

It's the 4k-x. The rule sensitivity was on 10, but global was on 8. I cranked it up to 10, and while I was in there turned the placebo target filter setting off again. I'm not holding out any hope of it working better. If the target filters were really off, I don't think the overhead view should make any difference.

Mebbe... the target isnt very contrast'y vs the background either

Can you crawl through the scene on all 4's to test? Even if it doesnt work it could be entertaining... :rofl:

Maybe not. But when I walk through it, it triggers. I know right away because I have the camera set to play a barking dog audio when it's triggered.
