We've put up a reolink camera. The PT go, solar panelled 4g one.
We put it on a pile in the corner of the yard.
It is brilliant for being able to see the whole field and the yard is close up which is great.
What I'm slightly disappointed with is the motion detecting / alerts / recording.
I'm not sure if it is just me or not though.
If I put the pir sensor on then it sends alerts through, but only when things are right under the camera. So I get nothing, then get 20 alerts in a row because the horses have decided to come down into that corner. The pir doesn't work for anything further away though.
I have person and vehicle detection on but my wife has been up this morning, car parked within the camera view and has walked about picking up poo, but nothing was picked up.
Am I missing something on the setup?
At the moment it is great for live checking on them but nothing else.
