Hi there !

It is all in the question:)  
My Philippe secure camera detects all kinds of light effects. Can I deactivate this so that I receive notifications only for human presence ?

Also, can I receive and alarm in that case, note just a notification ?

Thanks a lot !

Which Homey app are you using for your camera?

Hi Sonia,

Does your question relate to one of Athom’s smart home systems Homey, Homey Bridge, Homey Pro?

Just read the manual. If it is not in there, it cannot be done.  
PS: the answer is no. The camera has no “person detection” or “light effect detection” so you cannot switch it on or off and you are asking something impossible. Even high end camera’s with person detection, pet detection, nummer plate recognition and moved objection detection, suffer from clouds from the sun.
