Model: KC410S  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 2.3.15

1st off, the exact model of my camera does not seem to be listed in the Model field above, its the KC420WS and NOT the KC410S that I entered (hopefully that's not an idication of the support level on the cameras I just purchased).

 

I'm using the cameras as both a video recording device plus a motion detector to control inside and outside lights via a ST hub.  It works really well on dry days but I'm getting a crazy amount of night time rain detection which creates lots of false video triggers and lights coming on when they shouln't.  I've enabled "Detect person" but it seems you can't disable "Detect Motion" so I get both Person and Motion triggers instead of only Person triggers.  I've also set the sensitivity all the way down to 1 and disabled "listen for sound".  I have set Day/Night detection to Auto and Night Vision to IR. 

 

Have purchased 10 of these cameras and am really hoping to find an outdoor smart camera with a robust motion detection capability.  

 

Thanks

Andrew
