Getting comfortable
I am still waiting to see how this is accomplished also.As soon as my camera zooms in or changes from the preset position I loose all IVS boxes and trip wires. Not like the video above shows.

Wildcat_1, when you will have some time, I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.
Hello,
EMPIRETECANDY adviced me that Wildcat and other of this thread could answer at my question :
I would like when an intrusion happens in Preset3, that the camera "turns" from Preset1 to Preset3 and records the events.
Is it possible ?
If yes, how to do it ?
Details below
First, sorry for my poor English.
I bought a DH-SD6CE445XA-HNR, very good product.
Very big thank to IPCAMTALK cause I found the way to setup the auto tracking.
I would like to do something but I don't know if it's possible.
I try to explain :
I set up
3 presets (Preset1; Preset2; Preset3). Preset3 is opposite view of Preset1 and Preset2 is a view in the middle of preset1 view and preset3 view.
3 Smart plan
3 IVS with 2 separates intrusions zones for each preset
The default position is Preset1
If an intrusion appears in this Preset1, the auto tracking is working through the 3 presets (not always but let say is working !!). After the 300 sec the camera come back to Preset1.

Add info :
I never found the solution to operate the tripewire.
The only type of rule is working is Intrusion.
Thanks in advance for your help and advice.

Catcamstar thank you for your fast anwser. This permits me to stop looking on something impossible...
In other hand, what minum size you advice me to avoid mouvement detection when a little (sorry this is not very accurate) butterfly goes through the camera ?
Your best bet is going to be to walk through the scene where you want the detection to take place and see what sized box it draws around you while an IVs rule is active. Make your minimum size based off of that.Catcamstar thank you for your fast anwser. This permits me to stop looking on something impossible...

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunatly the camera is not able to cover whole the aera.@missel - what you asked is possible if you have an overview camera that sees the whole area - and when motion is triggered in the area that would correspond to Preset 3, it will then activate the PTZ to move to Preset 3 and then let the PTZ take over.
Thank you Cd36 I'll work on that.Your best bet is going to be to walk through the scene where you want the detection to take place and see what sized box it draws around you while an IVs rule is active. Make your minimum size based off of that.
Make sure to test it again and that it still captures you.
Also remember that for small objects it often draws a much bigger box around them. So while your box may be bigger than the butterfly, it will still be smaller than the box it draws around the butterfly. That's why it's important to check what size boxes it is drawing with an IVs rule active.
What cams are you running? My two year old SD50225U-HNI is doing an okay job, but I am sure it could do better. I wonder whether it's just a case of better firmware, it may also just be the processing power of your camera vs mine.Based on this thread I can say that I think the auto tracking software has improved substantially over time and will continue improving. I'm running 2 cams with new firmware that supports auto tracking, and it performs much better than how it is described here, with very little work on my part.
There is a slider to adjust how much it will zoom in on the target, which is great. And it seems to be better at tracking through objects. I had it tracking a vehicle down a lane behind some poplar trees without leaves on yet and it didn't screw the camera up.
So don't give up on it, as it is getting better all the time!
Thanks. My camera being a year or 2 older than yours probably wont benefit as much from the newer developments (eg SMD), but i did find a more recent version of the system firmware. We’ll see what that will bring, so far the autotrack is still as unpredictable if not worse.I'm using a 49225xa-hnr, so be a similar model to the one op had posted about.
I'm using the most recent firmware that I know of, it's from March 2020,so I'm sure the more recent firmwares are much better at auto tracking than the old ones, especially based on this thread.
I would see if you have a more recent firmware available to load. Otherwise it may just be a limitation of the camera.

It’s a variant of V2.800.0000000.5.R.190827, my old one was v2.622 from november 2017.No that is true, you probably won't have the best version of auto tracking but it's worth a shot. Out of curiosity what date is the firmware from?
