Motion alert & notification tips
Y-cam is equipped with a sophisticated motion sensor
which detects when motion is happening and can alert
you instantly by email and by push notifications.
If you want to receive alerts every time motion is detected*, you may want
to take in to consideration the following tips so that you achieve the best
results and reduce the number of fake alerts.
Active pets (or children!) may activate the motion
recording by accident.
Movements near busy doors or windows may
set off multiple alarms.
Moving cars or headlights may cause unwanted motion
recordings.
Sunlight and reflections of the light may cause
the motion alerts to trigger.
IR lights will reflect when pointed at glass and
may create false alerts.
*Alerts will be sent a maximum of once every 15 minutes per camera in order to avoid you being
alerted multiple times to the same event.
