Hello,

     i am a noob and am unfamiliar with this kind of thing and setting up a motion camera system for my job we have been the victims of several smash and grabs on our trucks and i am trying to set the cameras to turn towards the sensor that detect motion and then record until 2min has passed with no motion.  i know that macros are needed and i can get as far as them working when i click it but its not working on motion detection i dont know if the eagle eye sensors are reaching the reciever i have checked the activity monitior and am not really sure what i am looking for.i finally got the cameras working after sending a faulty usb adapter back i am using the activehome pro software wuth all the needed plug ins i have been reading these forums looking for some thing realated to my problem and am not finding any thing if there is something i  misssed please point me there we have this system and aall i can do is look at them.

thank you for any information you can help me with

hello again,

     i just read somehing about RF range that might narrow my problem down a little more my warehouse and office is on the conner of a building i was hoping to have the 8 motion sensors  spread across the whole outside of thebuilding the reciever is more to one side i dont think that it is more than 50 feet to any one point i read taht they only have a very short range like 10 feet at most my boss is not gonna take lighty to this if is infact true so any suggestions


thanks again

OK you mentioned Macro's (and video adapter) so I can assume your using the AHP and related software(s).

I use the AHP, and .... because of it's range found it ineffective until I modified it's antenna. There are several mods here at the forum, I am pretty sure they all work.

But before you tear-apart your CM15A (and void the warranty) why not bring a motion sensor to the AHP (less then 10 feet) and make SURE range is the problem.

Good suggestion from Dave_X10.  Another thing you might consider is using other tranceivers like an R5501 before you tear apart the CM15A.
