Notes of Using Reolink Non-detection Zone

1. The alarm types are slightly different according to different camera models.

2. Motions in the area covered with GREY grids will not be detected.

3. For alarm types like Person, you can use the pen to draw no-alarm zones, and use the eraser to modify the drawn zone; For the Others alarm type, you can only add all Detection Zone and delete all Detection Zone. Because "Others" refers to things besides person and vehicle, which is PIR alarms. PIR sensors do not have a concept of specific zones.

4. The three zones—person, vehicle, and others—are independent. If you completely cover the "Others" zone, it will still be possible to detect person and vehicle normally.
