Camera Motion Notification paused if it is me


#1

1) Give a description of the problem
I have an outdoor patio with a motion camera which records anytime there is motion and I want to be notified (assuming I’m not the one on the patio).

2) What is the expected behavior?
Notification message when activity is on the patio. However, if I’m the one that triggers the motion, okay to notify me once but not everytime the patio motion sensor goes from active to non active back to active. For example, if I exit my back patio door, I’m okay with the motion sensor telling me once that there is motion (trigger is if kitchen motion sensor fires first). But then once I’m outside, and motionless (e.g. laying down on furniture), I don’t want constant notifications.

3) What is happening/not happening?
I have no clue how to code what I described above. Looking for advice / solution.

4) Post a Green Snapshot of the pistonimage

5) Attach any logs (From ST IDE and by turning logging level to Full)

So I think I have a solution but it’s not working.

What I’d like to do is if there’s been motion in my kitchen and I go outside and the Patio camera changes to active, a PUSH notification is sent but then it waits for 20 minutes before attempting to send me another notification unless I change modes other than the three listed.

Any thoughts? Thanks!!!
