I installed from 4.0 yesterday and I read the PDF. A lot more powerful choices. Long way in 5 years.

I get the alert actions are tagged to profiles. Are the camera zones also tagged to the individual profiles?

For example, I have profiles for occupied, sleep and vacant. I understand I have can three different sets of actions tagged to those profiles in my action list for a specific camera.

Are my camera motion detection zone masks also tagged to the profiles in which I create them? So that in my instance, I have three different camera zone masks for each camera? Or do I need to clone cameras for each profile?

And then I have two different schedules, Home and Vacation. Home uses all 3 profiles while vacant uses only the vacant profile.

I do have support from Ken, but I do not like to pester him.

Thanks.

Regards,

Dewey

The masks are unique to each profile (it was even this way in BI 4). You can confirm this for yourself by simply looking at the masks, then changing profile in the settings dialog, then looking at the masks again.
