I wanted to check to see if anyone had issues in the recent past with the motion detection in the above Pelco series of cameras. We have a good number of these installed at a site and noticed that the motion detection in the cameras was not functioning properly. The problem was at first not noticeable but if you viewed a camera for awhile you would see where a large percentage of the time that the camera would not pick up motion when it should have. The most recent firmware releases for these cameras seems to have taken care of the issue. We now have Pelco telling us that only our site and one other are the ones to have had this problem. This seems strange as Pelco agreed it was an issue and told us we had to wait for the new firmware to fix it. What I think is happening is that people are installing the cameras, setting up the motion and it appears to be working and leaves it that. That people really are not aware of all of the times that motion is not being detected when it should have or that people are just recording 24/7 and the motion does not matter.
Thanks
