Can you make auto track zoom in more?

I saw this post that exactly explains how I feel but the post is 4.5 years old. Dahua auto tracking ZOOM INSTRUCTIONS
Does anyone know of a fix yet?

My business gets lots of trespassers and illegal dumping. The main purpose of this camera is to auto zoom in and be able to read license plates.

My model is DH-SD49425XB-HNR-G from EmpireTech

What is your track size ratio?

This is my first day with this camera, I do not understand much of the settings yet like target filter min and max sizes, pixel counter, or tracking target size ratio.

My ratio however is 25.

Thank you, I raised the ratio to 70 and it is zooming in great.

Yep that is how you do it.

Keep in mind the larger the number, the easier it is for the camera to lose tracking of the object.

So you have to play with it to find that balance between getting the close up shots but also not easily lose tracking.
