I have rule set to A>B, but if I leave a gap between zone A and zone B, I cannot get it to trigger no matter what settings I tried (travel distance, make time, break time, etc). I want to create a space between zones to eliminate false alarms caused by clouds moving, car's headlights, etc. Is there a reason why my setup do not work? I have tried this on other cameras too and got the same results.


No Gap, works fine.

thats because you broke the logic.. objects no longer move from Zone A to Zone B, they move from Zone A to Nothing, and then from Nothing to Zone B..

can you do A-B, B-C?

I'll probably try A>B, B>C since I just want to know if someone is approaching my front door.

Actually I found out A>B, B>C means A to B, OR B to C. Is there a way to do A to B, THEN B to C?
