Possible: add cam to cycle when triggered?

Post by PeterR »

It seems like there should be a way to do this, but I can't figure it out. I keep a group of two cameras auto-cycling on the console. Now I want to add a third camera in the rear and only have it show in the cycle if motion is detected. The console would show only the two front camera normally, but if there was motion in the rear the console would cycle all three. As an alternative, motion in the rear could interrupt the cycle, and only show the rear cam while motion is being triggered.

I set the group of three cameras to not show hidden cams. I had an alert on the rear cam that does a command for "unhide" (hide=0) and a command to re-hide when the alert is cleared. This didn't work; the cam was un-hidden and re-hidden, but the cycle still showed all three. I tried an alert command to focus/restore on alert, but that didn't work.

What am I missing?
