How to minimize false alarms

If you notice that you get too many false alarms, you can filter out certain types of movement or objects, or change the coverage.
Test which setting works best for your environment.
• Modify the include and exclude zones:
If the include zone includes hard surfaces, such as a metal wall, there may be reflections that causes multiple detections for
a single physical object. In this case, modify the include zone, see Modify a detection zone on page 12, or add an exclude
zone that masks everything behind the surface, see Add an exclude zone on page 12
• Filter on movement:
Go to Settings > Radar > Detection and select Ignore swaying objects. This setting will minimize false alarms from trees,
bushes, and flagpoles in the coverage zone.
• Filter on time:
Go to Settings > RMD zones and select a zone to modify it's settings.
Enable Short-lived object and set a delay time from when the radar starts tracking an object until it can trigger and alarm.
The timer starts when the radar first detects the object, not when the object enters the include zone.
• Filter on object type:
The detector will classify objects depending on the radar echo that they produce. If it can't determine the object type,
the object will be classified as Unidentified.
