Verify the Ground Zone is configured correctly

  • Avoid overlapping ground zones with objects that are prone to movement (e.g., such as trees, bushes, or other objects that move in the wind).
  • Only draw the rule where the feet of the person should enter.
    • Do not increase the size of the Ground Zone to cover the whole of the person.
    • Do not include walls, trees, or other structures in the rule/selection.
  • After observing what the rule detects over a few days, consider adjusting the Detection Sensitivity slider higher for more triggers or lower for fewer.
