IP Camera Next to Motion Sensor

Featured Replies

Posted

I don't know if anyone has run into this before, but I recently installed an IP camera over my garage right next to an existing Insteon motion sensor.  Well, lo and behold I started getting false motion alerts.  Since it started at night, I though maybe it was the IR LED's in the camera bleeding over to the motion sensor.  Turned them off, same thing.

I finally repeated the problem reliably.  When I would go the the camera in the app, I would get the motion alert.  So the only thing I can figure is when the camera turns on and starts sending RF it is causing the interference.  I moved it several feet away, no problems.

Just a heads up for a possible issue when they are close to each other.

This particular camera  is TP-Link Kasa Outdoor Camera.  Side note, I have 5 Kasa IP cameras.  They are great.  Cost-effective, easy to set up, reliable, great quality.
