Starting a Reolink RLC-520 with a PIR


Question

Posted

Hello

I have a Reolink RLC-520-5MP.
It also has motion detection by means of a camera and a picture as well as a film sequence is stored on my QNAP.
So far so good.
But every curious moth creates such a picture.
Adjusting the sensitivity does not help either.
The infrared light seems to literally attract the moths.
I have a motion detector on the same wall that switches the light on for me.
Is it possible to start the Maera's recording mode so that it creates a photo and a film?
I have already read and tried a lot, but all to no avail.
Does anyone of you have an idea ?
Greetings Frank

Is the light enough for taking picture and film?

Eventualy install a infra-red floodlight, also switched on with the motion sensor.

So you can switch of the infra-red lights of the camera. One of my camera's has enough light to work without infra-red light. This is the only one who has no spider family's or bugs atracted to it.

Maybe not the answer you're waiting for, but another approach

    Hello

    Thanks for the tip.
    1. I switched off the LEDs on the camera.
    2. I have enlarged the lamps that are switched on with the motion detector. (More light).
    3. Sensitivity of motion detection changed.

    Tara that works!
    Thanks again for the unconventional solution.
    Every now and then you have to stop thinking outside the box.

    Greetings Frank
